Hello from the PNW
Been on the forum for awhile, but just registered after finally pulling the trigger on a loaded 2012 screw FX4 EB on Wednesday.
LineX already done, and window tinting scheduled (for front side windows to match rears).
I couldn't justify getting a 2013 just to get HID (the only change I really like, the other changes don't sway me one way or the other) since dealers are blowing out 2012s. I got nearly $11K off sticker.
My first Ford truck, and I love it!
I drove a supercharged Nissan Frontier for 10 years before this baby. It was a great truck, I had zero problems with it...but it was time to move up.
I've been reading a lot about EB mileage. I only have 300 miles on it but my average is 18.5 mpg. I don't live in the city, my commute is backroads with some small town driving. I've been driving it normally (stomping on it only occasionally). I'm pretty happy so far, since this avg mileage is slightly better than my little Frontier got, with much less hp and torque. And my insurance only went up $6 a month (relative to same coverage).
Anyway, looking forward to gleaning more knowledge from you experts.

Love the color of your truck. Now you need some tires...big ones. And THAT is about all I know about trucks.
