Ford F150 Forum - Community of Ford Truck Fans - New member-Traded our 2009 Chevrolet for 2013 Ford

I just joined your forum today! Sorry it isn't a 2013 truck but a 2012 model instead...We have never owned a Ford vehicle before so this is a new experience for us. We have a close friend that contacted us yesterday about his 2012 Ford F-150 Platinum edition truck that he was trading in on a new 2016 Ford F-150 Platinum edition truck. We have usually only owned GM vehicles, (although we currently own a Nissan 350z), as well as our Chevrolet vehicles.

Long story short, yesterday we traded our 2009 Chevrolet truck in on our friend's Ford truck. The dealership let us purchase our friend's 2012 truck for the exact same trade in allowance they were giving him on the purchase of his new Ford truck. The dealership, I am sure, will be making money on our Chevy truck however, based upon the allowance they gave us for our truck on the purchase of the 2012 Ford truck.

Anyways, a Corvette forum member directed me to your forum so that's how I ended up here today. I am looking forward to learning about Ford trucks from the members here and appreciate any guidance and suggestions about matters relating to the Ecoboost 2012 F 150 truck we now own. Oh, and yes, I love Corvettes and I have both a 2014 Corvette and a 1982 Corvette, both coupes.
