I have the 15. I would like the mirrors on that 19. Not much different between 15-20. I used forscan to do some upgrades and updates. Go with the best deal cause they are getting hard to come by.

The 18-20 are basically the same, as are the 15-17 with maybe a few minor changes here and there. The 18-20 is gonna basically be the same thing on the outside and inside though. The 19 is the better one from the photos listed because it hast the led headlights and tail lights and not the lower lariat lights (along with factory power steps), which leads me to believe the first is the lowest level lariat because it has halogen head lights and tails. The 2020 pictured has led tail lights (likely with BLIS) but has the special edition halogens up front again.

Usually start between 55,000 to 65,000 miles. We have about 70 to 80 trucks in our fleet, it is right at a 50/50 chance it is going to happen.

The navigation in the 15 sucks. They had a update in 16. That 19 lariat sport looks nice to me. I have that identical truck to the 2020 lariat and have been happy with it.

The Ram is hands down the nicest truck out right now. I drove 2 different f150 platinums for 4 years before buying a Ram Laramie that was much nicer, and now a Ram Limited that is beautiful. I drove my buddy's new Denali 1500 diesel home from the coast today and it's a POS.
I will say I have not been in a 2020/21 F150 but I did drive a KR Expedition last year before we bought my wife's suv.

I would rather drive a titan.
chevy has got to be the cheapest brand on the road today. even the High Country and the GM Denali have the cheapest interior with the most thin plastic junk everywhere.

The 2010 body style is the best looking of them by far IMO. I had a 2011 Lariat that was fantastic and now have a 2016 XLT that I hate. The newer one pulls trailers much worse due to the computers put in for the towing package and the 10 speed AT, it shifts down way to soon on upslopes even with a small empty trailer. The aluminum body sheds paint much easier than the steel body did too.

A buddy just traded his 19 stx for a 21 stx and they gave him 7 grand more than he paid for the 19 on trade in. I rode in it, its pretty nice. Definitely feels faster than my 18 or his 19 did. All of the above are 5.0's but the 21 might (I could be wrong) come from the factory with a different gear ratio than the prior years. As for EcoBoost I don't know anyone with one that has had problems, besides the people who had the first year or two of it (not sure when it was, maybe 2012 or 2013) but they got that sorted out now. Brother in law has had a 2015 in 2.7 since then and has had zero problems and he drives alot for work. Another buddy's dad has the 3.5 and pulls a giant trailer routinely and swears by it. But, id get the 5.0, its a tank.
