Default 2017 ecoboost in the house!

Well I traded in my lovely 2015 Explorer for a 2017 F150 XLT Sport.

My lease on the Explorer was up in about 8 months. Got into an F150 for $15 more a month than my Explorer with zero down. Not a bad deal at all.

I wanted the Lariat but no good incentives and I was wrongfully terminated back in April so I don't have a job either - so had to take what I could get

302a package
dual moon roof
3.5 ecoboost
max trailer tow package
sync connect
six spoke wheels
factory spray bed liner



Anywho excited to see what options are out there and such!

Welcome to the forum, great choice to upgrade to a truck! Do you plan on keeping it stock or making it your own?

Thanks all!!

And the truck is a lease. Only thing it has had done is the only things it will get:

Bottle opener mounted in bed
Tinted windows all around
Dash cam hard wired (fuse tap)


I have to say it's been awhile from when I last owned a pickup. It drives like a totally different vehicle compared to a sedan or SUV. Needless to say I truly miss the turning radius, comfort and handling of my 2015 Explorer.

The F150 is nice tho going down a straight line. Good power. Comfortable. A dog around town - especially in narrow laned streets of Oregon. I miss the wide lanes/parking spaces of California, Colorado & Texas.
