    Finally pulled the trigger and traded my IS300 in for a new F150 FX4 w/luxury package

    5.0 I drove both then started doing some research and the ecoboost just doesn't feel like a truck to me. Its a dog until the boost comes on imo.

    Probably true but should be an easy fix with an aftermarket tuner, although not easy to jeopordize a warranty on a 40k+ truck.

    Kinda what I was thinking and also I read that the ecoboost is having issues with coolant leak... Ford has a hold on a bunch in Detroit that are ready to ship and will only say there is a coolant leak issue. I figured I'd just go with the 5.0 and hope some of the Mustang aftermarket would be compatable like the GM LSX serries.

    Nice. I'd suggest Nasta bars if you want metal. 100% stainless on ALL parts. Mixing stainless with other metals will cause rust. I've had mine for 5 and 1/2 yrs and no rust. Every once in awhile you get tiny orange specks that come right off with cleaner.

    As for a cover, we've been considering a new truck for awhile and I made my mind up if we do get one I'd get the Undercover. I've got a Snuglid on mine now and the lid is crazy heavy. Only way to remove it is with a couple guys or the hoist I put together in the garage. I prefer the hard covers, other people's cigarettes don't burn holes in them.
