I've always thought and agree about the new release, lab rat scenario. This is
one reason I've waited on purchasing an F150. The drivetrain however, has been
around for a few years.
I also think having 4 wheel drive is worth it. The vehicle is always more
valuable during resale, usually close to the initial cost difference and the
occasional use is a huge benefit to me.

I would wait a year or two on the new Ford F150 (or any new release) until the
powertrain and body structure changes are fully tested and diagnosed. Unless
you want to be the lab rat. I've owned three F150s and the 2009 I currently own
is the worst.

The new aluminum truck is said to weigh 700lbs. less than the last steel
version. That's a lot of weight off during daily driving routines and the
towing and payload has gone up. Sounds good to me. I built a SuperCrew FX4
version on line, no leather or sunroof thank you, and got the price up to $46K.
Now they are offering up to $8K in discounts and incentives. It's sounding
better every day.
I read an article recently that discusses the improvements on 1/2 ton trucks
that bring them up to 3/4 ton levels from just a few years ago.

We've got a customer with a new aluminum F150. He loves it. Says it tows a
7K lb. trailer and doesn't even know it's there!
Sweet truck, but stickered for $60K!!!!!
