We sold a 2005 GMC Safari van that we bought new. It was in great shape and only had 99,000 km on it. The biggest issue was that we tow a 5,000# travel trailer and the van was absolutely maxed out.
This new 2013 Lariat Screw with a 5.0l should be a world of difference! Looking forward to our first trip next week-end. I just finished setting up the WD hitch and brake controller tonight.

2013 Ram 2500 PowerWagon
It was just too big for our needs and impossible to drive around town. Though I miss the Warn winch, RamBox, and 11K# towing capacity, I am very happy with the F150 Limited.
Here is one huge lesson Ford should take from Ram: UConnect was much more reliable than MyFordTouch. MFT cannot handle my 80gb iPod (UConnect indexed the iPod and was voice activated in less than 5 minutes; I have had my truck for 30 days and still cannot voice control my iPod). Also, the MFT has on four occasions crashed--as in rebooted itself while driving down the road. Yes- I have the latest update and did a master reset. So I am very disappointed with MFT.

Traded my '08 Tundra. Was a great truck, but a little down on power with the 4.8L and 35's. Didn't tow our ski boat that well on the highway either. But it was a great truck otherwise and had zero mechanical issues. Never once had to go to the dealer with a problem. I don't miss the fact that it was only 2wd though! My new F150 rocks in the woods and in the mud.
