Loving the new truck even though its not a dodge
« on: December 04, 2011, 06:35:57 PM »
So I took a new job and my company truck is a 2011 F150 super cab. It's so smooth to drive and super quiet when it comes to road noise and rattles. It's nice to have a pavement princess for a daily driver and a dedicated trail rig to play on the weekends.

We drove home from Canmore last night in the storm and with 4 studded Nokian winters it was a gem to drive. Not to mention the Sync with all the hands free goodies is great to use.

The best part of course is the 140 litre tank that has a highway range of about 950 kms. Oh yeah and the fleet card certainly takes the bite off at the pump.

Anyone else driving one?

We have a bunch of them in our fleet. Make sure you use the correct oil otherwise it messes up the cam phasers.

(no I didn't just make that up!)
