Default 2011 Sterling EB FX4 to 2013 5.0 Sterling Lariat... pics

Well, I finished up a deal today and swapped out my 2011 for a 2013. As sharp as I think all the other F150's are, I'll be the first to admit that I do think the FX4's have an edge in appearance. I almost did the FX4 again, but decided to go with a Lariat this time. I also decided to shake it up big time on color and get a Sterling Gray to replace a Sterling Gray . I love this color... I bought the FX4 used this spring not knowing whether or not I would stick with a truck and needless to say my FX4 was a far better truck than I had even hoped. I picked up pretty much the same truck, dropped 34,000 miles, added the new mytouch/nav (very cool), sunroof (don't care about), Auto 4x4 and a few other little things. I lost the man step (which I'll actually miss and thought it was a gimmick before getting) and spray in liner. I kept my rear cover and will probably have the bed done by Line X.
No real reason why I went 5.0/3.55 over EB this time other than I saved some cash and really liked the 5.0 every bit as much on test drives. The EB/3.73 I had treated me just fine... For now though, I made the right decision.

Thanks guys... On the road with it today on the same exact 2 1/2 hour drive we took out ecoboost on yesterday. Computer is telling us the mgp are almost identical... Didn't expect that. The engine is incredibly smooth and really maintains speed well.
