Default My First Truck

My family is down to a single car situation, I thought it would be best at this point to get the most versatile vehicle that I could.

I have always wanted a truck, and I always loved my Dad's F-150s, especially his 05' KR.

So here she is, Ruby Red XLT Sport, 302A, FX and Max Tow packages. I got her with 3 miles on the Odometer.





Never thought I would EVER own a red vehicle, but that Ruby Red is just so pretty... doesn't hurt that Ruby is my birthstone either!

I just love this thing to death. I love the ride, I love the engine, quietness and the room!

Thanks everyone!

I am loving this thing. Even after going through that "Complaints thread" I just don't have any real issues. The only one I think is weird and not that much of a complaint is the bonding of the aluminum for certain structures. The bed wants to make popping noises with weight on it and shifted off it.

Everyone's situation is different, right?

For us; My wife is a "Domestic Engineer" and I have a unique job that gives me amazing flexibility throughout the day, I am home or near home the majority of the time. There is never a day that I cannot make concessions or if she needs to make any.

We did consider two cars at first, we may still get a TDI just for when we want to save some fuel money.
