Where is the assumption made clear that platinum trucks are not designed for actual truck usage and mudding and other truck needs that a base line truck is acceptably used for?


They like nice things dude. Where you been?

I like the look of most F150s. The thing that I wanted a KR or Platinum for is the head/tail lights. $1800-2000 upgrade for an XLT or Lariat without them.

I actually test drove one of the last '15's in guard green, but went with a '16 Lariat 250 in two tone silver. About $2000 in price difference from the 5.0 to the 6.7 and I still have heated/cooled seats, sunroof, & navigation.

After seeing the aluminum cut and peel on my buddies F150 door that got hit with a shopping cart, I'm glad I went with a steel body 250.

It's a strange subject for you to take so seriously. Normally you're to busy trying to be the class clown.

As a platinum owner, I agree entirely.

Like the other guy, too good a deal to pass up. But now I love it.

I really hate to admit I looked at a used platinum three days ago.

I am torn as rip about what to do now. I would like to take it on a dirt road, but cant it seems.

On a related note, I got stuck as all hell with a guy in his Diesel Denali Sunday. I have never seen a guy with less regard for his vehicle, and I don't have a habit of keeping my trucks nice.

But as we were slinging shite everywhere, we didn't even roll the windows up.

Does the Lariat blow cold air on your balls? Kroger parking lot gets HOT in July.
