Default Grew up with Chevy trucks...bought an F-150 :)

Hi to all from sunny Melbourne, FL! I am a first time truck owner (yes, at 48). Purchased a 2018 F-150 Platinum FX4 with 3.5 EB. I have a 5 star tune on it and am running either 93 perf or E50 (a MONSTER). I absolutely LOVE this truck and will never NOT own a truck...and, I can honestly say, I'm a Ford fanboy now (to the consternation of my 81 year old dad who has owned nothing but Chevys...haha). Anyway, a quick bit about me. I am from Louisville, KY originally. Did 20 years USAF as many things but primarily an F-16 pilot...which I sorely miss! Retired fro USAF in 2014. Did a stint in NYC (didn't care for it) and am now working at a major defense contractor here in Melbourne. Anyway, just wanted to say HEY! I'm sure I will learn MUCH from the other forum members here. Posted a pic of my baby here. Hope everyone enjoys their day!

Thank you very much for your service!!!

I am so jealous of you for being a pilot, LOL. I have all my life wanted to fly jets but just didn't have what it took.

Anyway, welcome aboard and that is sharp truck, you did very well with that purchase.

Keep checking your local fuel stations. And don’t rely on any online E85 finder tool. Mine said the closest was an hour and a half away. There’s actually TWO within 2 miles of me! Good luck! It’s well worth it! Haha
