How do you like the F150???. There are some selling for 13,500 new. I was considering it for a daily driver cause I can throw a go kart in the back and there always seems to be a need for a truck these days with home improvement and such.
Is it a total POS or has the quality gone up? Strengths?. Weaknesses?.
BTW, I sold a modified E46 M3 to prepare for the Elise. I wish my car would come soon cause it is too dangerous for me to have this amt money in the bank. Otherwise, I might be buying a Hyundai instead....
To Tell the truth, it is pretty nice. I have a rental fleet version, so it is the cheapest interior, and it is not 4WD. Taht being said, it is a version with 4 full sized doors. Verdict:
Fit and finish is VERY impressive. The consul is nicely done and with the exception of the display, and this version has the transmission of the column, everything else is high quality. Remember that there are severya versions of the interior available depending on which version of the truch you get.
Ride is very very soft. It is a cruiser. If you need to turn fast, or especially if you need to stop quickly, you feel like you will be ejected through the windshield. The ride itself is very smooth, and I was impressed with the comfor level. Even though there has never been a load in the bed, the back end does not want to step out like a lot of hter truck-it still feels light, but not as bad as other.
Engine is adequite. Not too fuel efficient, but somewhat powerful. Transmission is perfect, not loud, gears shifts always happen when you need them, and you never really notice it doing its thing unless you really step on it. At that point, the engine just makes noise, and adds a little acceleration.
