Really torn on a new 150

Plus, mine hasn't even had enough time to develop its attitude yet. That's like trading one of my kids off before they're 16 and know everything.

I'd hold off, I'm i the same situation. I have a 2010 Xlt 4x4 with 17k on it. They offered me 26500 for it a few months back. I owe 2100 bucks on it, so its almost paid off. I just could not justify spending the extra money just to get a new engine that may get 2 mpg better. I'm getting 17.5 on the highway. I figured the 7k I'm saving by keeping mine will buy a lot of gas and I can wait for the new design in 2015.

That thought had crossed my mind but it isn't set up for what I'd use it for. I wouldn't be able to bring myself to throw a ton of rock in the bed.

Aside from the creature comforts the 2011+ trucks also have the electric power steering, which is a major improvement over the hold hydraulic power assist setup. Though, if you're going to go with the 6.2 I think that engine might still come with the hydraulic instead of the electric, but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm keeping mine for the long haul. I've had times when I was tempted but having a vehicle free and clear is a feeling hard to replace. Start saving for the next one and enjoy your current pickup and that someone was so impressed with it

There is no doubts I would wait if I had a problem free 5.4L with a 6 speed behind it.

I did a similar thread about this a few weeks ago myself.
I have an '11, but I think I am waiting until the new body style comes out. I just turned 13000 miles, so it's not like it's worn out.
Unless I go raptor, I am waiting until the fall of 2014 to get a new one. If I don't like the '15s for some reason, I will just get a '14.
