Default Another Canadian

Just another Canadian saying hello

Initially joined back in 2017 as I started looking at the F150 and almost ended up with a 2.7 Lariat but trade in value on my trade was just not where it needed to be

Fast forward to December 2018 and looking again and was working a deal for a 2018 King Ranch with a 5.0. Couldn't come to terms and walked but kept dialog open with dealer

January 2019 decided to order what I wanted which was a difficult process. 2.7 would fit my needs, 5.0 seemed it might be less to maintain but the 3.5 was my want but at a cost of Cdn $2600 (plus losing a $2,000 rebate on the 2.7). 3.5 was Cdn$750 more than 5.0.

Back in December I test drove 3.5 and 5.0 back to back and honestly I could live with either but there was one thing I kept thinking...... I can Tune a 3.5TT and get the power much cheaper and more reliably under warranty than adding the necessary things to a 5.0 losing warranty to make it faster

So now I wait the now 7 to 13 weeks for my 2019 Lariat 5.5 with a 3.5 and research the Tunes. At this time I'm leaning towards 5*

Congrats on the 19 order, canned tunes from any of the larger tuning houses will get you what you need..

Got the VIN today. Looked it up but not much showing other than 2019 Lariat SCrew SB 3.5 and allocated to Kansas City. Go Chiefs? Happy workers make better trucks
