I picked up a new 2016 F150 this weekend! I was planning to hold out for the new Ranger but decided I didn't want to wait another year or so just to see if I would even like it, not to mention deal with the inevitable first run problems or else wait another year or two to buy.
I made a sweet deal on the truck as it's somewhat of a leftover, and got more than $10K off the sticker plus 0% for 72 months. It's a 5.0 V-8, 2WD XLT with Sport package, which gives me the flow-through center console and floor shift. Has the 8" Sync 3 w/Nav package, 20" wheels, blind spot monitoring, dual power seats, Pro-Trailer assist & brake controller, remote start and AC power inverter, etc... Needless to say, I'm happy!
Now, time to make it mine.... The bug shield and front plate holder are already off and the pin-striping, Sport decals and tailgate badges are all coming off today. Windows being tinted tomorrow and I've got WeatherTech floor liners, a Bedrug and Lomax tri-fold bed cover on the way. Haven't decided on a leveling kit or slight drop just yet, and am leaning towards the Magnaflow side-exit catback, but those probably won't happen right away.
Anyway, since this happened, my 2001 ST w/5.0 swap will be up for grabs. I'll be getting it cleaned up and listing all the details very soon.
