Default New the forum

Hi,

I'm new to the forum and from Boulder CO. I am looking at the 2018 F-150 and was wondering if anyone has recently purchased one? I'm trying to figure out which engine to get living at 6K feet above sea level and would love to hear your experience with the 10 gear transmission.

Thanks

Walsh33

I just bought a 2018 with the 3.5 ecoboost and I love it. Ton of power and the 10 speed the transmission is smooth. Much better than my 2014 with the same engine.

Welcome to the forum Walsh33 !
Share a pic when you decide.

I agree with Ruby^ drive em all, and decide what you need a truck for.

Im sure the computer will adjust the eng. for whatever elevation you drive to.

In the old days we would have to lean out the fuel to compensate for the thinner air at high elevation. but the computer does it automatically thru all the sensors now.

I have a 2016 XLT. There are not much changes in the 2018 model when it comes to engine and power. You can message me for any questions you may have about the truck!!
