It really is crazy how high the rear end sits. My f150 is pretty stout and I still feel small when I’m behind one.

Confirmed tonight that it's about 3" too tall to put in perkins rowe parking garage

Always wondered about that. Even my Tacoma seems sketchy in garages sometimes

I'm about 9 months from trading in my '12 F-150 for an '19 F-250 XLT or Lariat.
Whichever one I get a better deal on.

My leveled F-150 wouldn’t fit in the garage at the Hilton Riverside in NOLA

i just got back from road trip. road trip split between going 75-78 mph on interstates and then mostly going 65 avg on 190 for a 50 or so mile stretch. Covington to alexandria.
my truck has 2 1/2 front lift with bigger rear block, 295/65 tires (basically right over 35" diameter 11.7"width. Had a bed full of luggage, ice chests, and various crap.
My truck pretty much averaged inbetween 18.6 and 19.4 on strictly the there and back driving.
'12 ford w/ delete/tuner.
The difference of going from the 35's to the 37's has to be pretty substantial i would think. I can also tell a huge difference in mileage traveling 60-70 vs 75-79 mph.

I've averaged as high as 16 and some change from my gasser with 4.30s when I've cruised 60 on the interstate.
IMO currently the leading HD truck on the market by a good bit in the gas burner category. I'm still not a huge fan of the powerstroke but the rest of the drivetrain and the truck itself are easily the best offering out there right now.

2017 same lift and tires with no programmer or deletes would average 15 to 15.5.

How much cheaper was the gas vs diesel
Posted on 7/19/18 at 5:38 pm to jimbeam
The diesel was an 8200 option on the sticker in 2017. Not sure about now.
Posted on 7/19/18 at 5:39 pm to pdubya76
Eeesh. That’s a lot of fuel

Stock of 6.7 with 3.55 fx4 and 20s. 13 to 14 city 17.5 hwy. overall best truck I have ever owned so far 10800 miles. I do agree, they are to tall. My last one was about 4 to 6 inches shorter, same trim level. Garages are almost a no everywhere. Fits in the 8 ft tall one at home. Some have been taking the 16 blocks and swapping them out on the rear to lower about 2 inches. If you go to NO I can confirm valet at the ritz will take it. The Roosevelt too, but their valet is outside. Most other are to short. I could make Perkins Rowe on the first floor with my old one, not this one.

I think it's a $9200 option
Posted on 7/20/18 at 6:40 am to DownshiftAndFloorIt
Just looked at my window sticker, it’s an $8460 option
Posted on 7/20/18 at 8:08 am to KingRanch
Maybe its the cummins that is $9200. I know one of them was over 9
Posted on 7/20/18 at 8:11 am to DownshiftAndFloorIt
does it come with truck nuts or is that optional
Posted on 7/20/18 at 8:14 am to beef42
Truck nutz were a $350 option when I ordered mine. You have to send in an application which involves your W2 and details on how many hours of overtime you worked last year.
My application was rejected on basis of putting too much money into savings last year. frickin bullshite.

IMO - Best looking truck ever made! I sure wish I wasn't paying SJA tuition or I would have one

I have about 2K miles on mine. Pulled a 20ft trailer with a 50HP Kubota on it last weekend and it didn't even feel like I was towing anything. Leveled mine and put 35" KO2's on it last week. I am averaging 15.7 driving from Zachary to BR everyday.
