One nice looking truck! the Lariat/Platinum grille looks awesome, I was thinking of changing mine out (XTR/XLT pkg) to that grille - lots of them online for sale, as guys change them out to after market grille's...that's one area the design improved from the 05-08's...I hated my 07 factory grille.

traded in my 2007 tundra 5.7l double cab long bed tow package for f150 super crew xlt max tow and off road package w ecoboost. Things I miss with the Tunda instant power, I would step on the gas and the truck would go. The f150 doesnt seem as fast. I miss the long box. my f150 screw is 6 1/2ft. i miss the storage spaces the the tundra had. my f150 seems to have alot less and littler holes to cram stuff into. The things I love about my f150 is I live in Wyoming and got 21.6 mpg going to loveland colorado and 18 mpg coming back doing 75 mph. my tundra would get roughly 14 at those speeds. going up hill the ecoboost stays in 6th gear and around 1500 rpm compared to the tundra that liked to downshift and screem up hills and burn fuel. I towed a 27 foot camper with my tundra doing 70mph from cheyenne to rob roy which is located in the snowy range and got 3mpg yes 3mpg in the tundra have not done the trip with my ecoboost but cant wait to do it, praying it will be an improvement.
