Default What to expect please.

Am going tomorrow to test drive and possibly buy a 2017 F150 King Ranch 4x4. This is a non titled truck and during the test drive just seeing what I should be listening or looking out for. I come from a background of owning two Titans, a Frontier, and a Ram. Just looking to change up and being 6’2” and 280lbs want some room.

You will love the truck! I bought a 17 KR about 6 weeks ago and have not regretted it one bet. Good luck.

Ok just got back from the dealership and I LOVED the truck. Now of course they made me an offer that I had to refuse. I told them what I am willing to pay and with that got back inside my paid for car to come home. They’ve called me twice already to come back and talk about it. I explained the next and only phone call better be saying you’ve got a deal. Will keep you all posted.

Double check the payload sticker before you sign to make sure it is what you need.

Never heard someone say "non-titled truck" before.

As stated, if you're going to tow, better check the payload sticker. A heavily optioned truck has very low payload.

Also, YOU should have a number that you've figured out before you go. Invoice minus rebates for example. Or use X-Plan.

Meaning this truck has sat on their lot since summer of 2017. It’s been moved around and I’ve been told has been used by the GM as needed, yet has solely been owned by the dealership.

As far as the payload I should explain. I do not use a truck for anything truck related. Meaning I do not tow, haul, nor carry. This just like my other trucks is going to be a toy. Using it for carrying my daughter to school, and carrying the family to Church on the weekends. I like to accessorize all of my vehicles as I can’t drive anything stock lol. I’ve had trucks with every possible add on in hopes of being content, and that never happened. I like big boys toys and this would be exactly that.
