Hello all. I am a new member to this forum and a new owner of a 2008 F-150 SUPERCREW. I look forwar to being here and getting some helpful ideas with my new truck. I have already strolled through some posts and have already ordered a scanguage just to see how much gas I am using.

I have a few questions for you SUPERCREW guys:

Where can I get some CHEAP seat covers that fit?(Have a 1yr old and want to keep the vomit and food off my seats)

What are the best ways to get the most MPG out of my truck?

Should I change the factory oil to synthetic? It only had 8 miles on it when I bought it.

Any other things to look out for or be aware of?

Thanks guys.

Welcome and nice looking truck! I like that color!
One thing to "be aware of" -
The "Mod bug"! It can get really expensive!

For those who are wondering about MPG'S...I am about to take a trip to Pensacola Florida in the morning(about 5 hours). I will let you guys know. I am going to trip the odometer to see what I am getting.

Where can I get some CHEAP seat covers that fit?(Have a 1yr old and want to keep the vomit and food off my seats) Cabela's seems to carry alot of seat covers they might have what your looking for or EBAY ?
What are the best ways to get the most MPG out of my truck? STAY OFF GAS PEDAL LOL

Should I change the factory oil to synthetic? It only had 8 miles on it when I bought it. From what I understand it's a good thing I have to change to it myself synthetic that is

Any other things to look out for or be aware of? The Mod Bug once it bites it's all over LOL

Oh by the way nice truck

Welcome - great looking truck.

As far as oil I run Castrol and add a can of BG MOA - that is great stuff!

I'd like to know what you find, but unfortunately Cheap and Fit don't really go together. Unless you have a different definition of "cheap" - I was looking at these
http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/...seat+covers.do

for $160 I dont' like the "fits most bucket" tag.
