Okay moving this to a new thread...

Sequoia is gone, replacement barely fits in the garage :eek:

2013 Lariat 5.0L with the 4x4 off road package including the 3.73 electronic locking diff. Has 62,200 miles paid $23,990.

Plans are basically leave it alone. I'll probably gets some 18" from a current generation F150, a locking bed cover and then probably a spray in bed liner. Other than that just maintain it.

Which Sync does it have? 2 or 3?

I think you can retrofit the Sync 3 system into it if you don't have it already.

Best truck thread yet. Solid choice. I really hope you like this truck as much as I did. Albeit yours is just a little longer and loaded. Love that you got the taller gears for towing and also got the rear locker. No stopping you.

[quote=""ChargerX3""]Haha! Nice! I like the white on those trucks. Also you stay cleaner longer. Well at least you fit in the garage. I don’t lol.

Glad to see you finally pull the trigger. What are your overall impressions?[/quote]

Going to answer this here instead of the tree thread. Overall it's a lot quieter, more comfortable, and I definitely prefer the feel of the 6spd over the slushy 5spd in the Sequoia. The Sequoia was darty in wind and rain where this feels so much more stable. It's going to take a bit to recalibrate my parking but the backup camera is helpful!

What Jeff said. Won’t work. You have Sync2. You have to upgrade the full module to get to Sync3. I was researching it for the ST, but decided to get the RS instead of upgrading Sync :lol:

Yea, the 6 speed is solid in the newer fords. No hunting for gears. Yea, you will grow to love the camera. Is it in your rear view, or on the dash?
