What are you laughing at? F150 is much better than a 07-13 GM.

Better engine, better interior, IMO better looks. What does the GM do better other than appeal to fanboys of a particular make?

Looking at 2013 window stickers, it looks like the EC is $1095.



My bad. Didn't realize they changed it from 2012.

everything you said is debatable. Everything you said makes you the stereotypical fanboi.

GM has nothing from those years that can do what the EcoBoost does, and their mid V8 can't touch the 5.0. Interior has universally been viewed as better. And I said my opinion for looks.

ETA: And I highly doubt a fanboi would have owned a Denali truck, Suburban, Mustang, Camaro, and now an F150. I'm not brand loyal, I buy what's best at the time.

Yeah, I chose to ignore that part of the post so that my jealousy didn't get the better of me.

Eco 4x4 3.55 Lariat extended cab 18" wheels. I get better mileage towing my boat than I do stop and go driving in Houston proper. I've noticed the mpg's depend on how fast you drive.

City - 14mpg
Hwy - 20mpg if hold to 70, 16-17 mpg if over
Towing 18 ft Gulf Coast bay boat - 14.5mpg
