Hey guys - I'm new here, but not to Ford. This is my 5th F150, and 7th pick-up truck.

I'm coming out of 2012 Nissan Armada (Tahoe-like SUV built off the Titan). That vehicle was purchased to replace an older (1997) F150 and Toyota minivan (2-in-1), with the idea being that we could tow the toy trailer AND take the whole family in one vehicle. The Armada is great, but the IRS really doesn't like heavy loads, even with weight distributing hitches and air bladders added.

So, I'm back in an F150. A 2019 crew cab XLT 4x4 (3.5L - I wanted the Coyote V8, but they were hard to come by with the options that I wanted).

Thanks!

Grand Haven (tourist trap town). Very nice in the summer. When it gets to crowded here, we head north :-)

Oh ya, you guys get whacked in the summer. Not "too" bad over here though. Plus it helps if you're in BFE.

Yeah, we get a LOT of wealthy tourists from the Chicago area. Some people like it (money for the local economy), some hate (the tourists can be very rude), and some just seek shelter farther north. No doubt the folks to the north would say the same thing about the Grand Haven/Grand Rapids people invading their towns :-)
