Default Roush/ or FX4

So here's the deal.

Right now I have available to me a used 2013 limited, with Roush supercharged 6.2,with exhaust. It is red in color. I took it for a test drive and what a beast and the price has been dropping for the last 3 months to almost unthinkable to what it must have been brand new. It has 14,000 km's......Very nice truck and one of a kind for sure. Any you fellas out there with a roush pkg share some experience on yours

THEN,............

I also have a deal on the table for a brand new 2014 6.2l FX4 (black) with 40 km's from another source I found surfing the net. It has almost all the bells and whistles as the red limited, minus a couple literally.Not supercharged or any upgrades like exhaust,lift.....etc. If this was the truck for me, I could have a lot of fun with upgrades....... kinda cool! Inspired a a black FX4 i saw on "show your lifted trucks: Was a black FX4 with a 4"lift that looked beauty. Can't remember the name of the member

BUT,...........

Both deals are offering me the same $$ on my trade(almost what I paid for it in the beginning), which would be a 2012 Black Harley-Davidson edition with a 6.2l. I have virtually all the upgrades you can put on it without putting a supercharger on it (you can see my upgrades below) Both deals said I could keep my upgraded wheels and put the factory Harley-Davidson wheels back on and keep my Fuel Mavericks,with tires. This is a very nice truck and do ask myself why am I thinking of trading in such a nice truck......... Since Ford is Discontinuing the 6.2l engine I feel I would be upgrading to a newer version before it rides into the sunset.And a new truck is always nice!!!

Anyways, if you would like to share your thoughts on my issue would be great,............... like to hear from some roush guys experience. I am totally a Ford F-150 junkie/fan and have always had a new ford since 1995. I hope that this is not coming off as pretentious as that is not my intent. I have worked hard all my life and am grateful to be in such a position as this.

Thx

Coming from another Harley F150 owner, I would keep the Harley or go with the Limited, reason being is that I love the looks of the Harley and Limited and how the little touches change the look of the truck. Something about a Number truck makes it unique. With everything you already done with your truck, I would personally keep the Harley, you could always supercharge in the end.

That Roush kit costs like $8000. But you can still always get it easier than you could a Harley F150.

Tough one I say. I would love to drive a supercharged 6.2.
