Default 2013 to 2018 upgrade

Just upgraded from a '13 King Ranch Eco 2wd well optioned to a '18 King Ranch Fx4 5.0 loaded with tow mirrors, 6K miles.
I'm amazed at the difference 5 years makes! The additional bells and whistles are crazy! I really need to read the manual this time haha

Congrats on the upgrade. I definitely recommend reading the manual or every month you'll just keep finding something new you had no idea your truck did.

I went from a 13 Raptor to a 17 XLT sport 4 x 4 with the 302A. Just bring in the XLT302, is almost as nice as the old rafters. I have the heated seats, the 8 inch now with factory navigation and Apple CarPlay, a beautiful Dash, a leather wrapped steering column. This truck is beautiful. And it’s as advanced or more than my raptor ones. I agree that five years makes a big difference. I also have the twin panel moonroof, add LED lights, sliding rear window, auto just bring in that XL team 302, is almost as nice as the old rafters.

I also have the twins have a roof, add LED lights, sliding rear window, auto start, And every other option that a 302 can come in. I am very happy I made the change. I enjoyed the 2.7 L much better than the 6.2 L.

I had the '18 delivered yesterday when I was at work and when I went to move it it took awhile to figure out how to turn the E brake off! Glad the dash info helped me!
My '18 was bought new in August so it's not even 5mo old and has a little over 6K mi on it. Someone traded it in on a new big Mercedes SUV!
Almost $20K less than sticker which I thought was good. Only a little more
$ than all the '17s I was considering with around 20-25K miles on them...and they didn't have all the options my '18 has. I was really glad to get the tow mirrors.
It already has a Bakflip G2. Spray in liner from the factory.
On my '13 I tried a Bakflip before trading it for a Undercover hardcover. I hope this G2 doesn't leak like the one did on my '13.
