Default New Ford guy here

Been another brand guy for a while, finally bought my first Ford. A new 2014 FX4 Screw, V8 5.0L. I've had it about a week so far and loving it.

Thanks.
Style of the Ford seemed better, outside and in. 2014 Chevy was ok, dash has been updated, but to quote my wife " I feel like I'm in a work truck" - I was looking at equal trim levels too. But the biggest deciding factor, we put our 2 y/o car seat in the back of the Chevy, wife put her passenger seat in a comfortable place, and his legs hit the seat. Same in Ford, and there was like 4-5 inches before he would hit the back of the seat. And he's only going to get bigger I hear, so more room the better.

I am on my second F150 but when I was looking at trucks I looked at Chevy First and then Ford. The trucks did have a smaller rear seat. I like the extra room. and the fact they don't look like a work truck. ( so much) My new one a Lariat is great and I love the look of the inside. I drive a Lexus and Its nice to have a truck that looks Close to it inside.
