Interior is perfect and has all power options. Really cozy too!

I paid $10,900

also I picked up a 36mo/36,000 Mile Warranty for $1,800 More.

Got $6,000 for the Eclipse which is pretty good considering it had some problems.

I'd be curious to some real world gas mileage if possible, in the future, thanks.  Nice looking truck.  .

Sharp truck! Someday I'll have to get rid of my 212K mile '95 F150. When that happens, yours is exactly the kind of ride I'd be looking for. Maybe by then, yours will be available. Hey, call me before you sell it. LOL.

Thanks for the comments guys!

I seem to be really lucky today because I just found a superchips tuner which is usually $400 retail for $100 nearby from a dude! He got rid of his truck and no longer needs it.

I did a lot of research on this on the f150 forums and found out its the best tuner for my truck.

adds 25 horse and 35 tq so I think its worth it.

Also thinking about getting a lightning supercharger! :]

Watch the motor the 5.4 is notorious for spitting plugs.. Check plugs for tightness (for lack of beter word) eevry so often. Awesome looking truck by the way I really like those wheels.
