Well I FINALLY got my truck!! It's a 2013 Ford F150 Platinum with the Ecoboost 3.5L twin turbo motor and 3.73 gearing with max tow. We will be taking the boat to the lake tomorrow so i will have to take some pics of it with the boat, for now here's the scoot!

Nice rig I had a buddy that towed his boat with one and he loved it.

It pulls the boat around nicely! It almost feels like a diesel the way it has that low end torque.

Tell me, If you had a Blue boat you would've bought a Blue F150. Wouldn't you. :joyous:

Gotta keep the colour coding going...

Looks awesome by the way.

Um...well...LOL
Yes there was a reason why I bought the black truck...I love black so I bought the black and white boat, my wife's car is black, I HAD a black motorcycle, and YES my truck had to be black! If I would have bought a blue truck it would have look odd with the boat don't you think??...lol

Oh and thanks!

PV, congratulations, that is a good looking truck. I love my ecoboost, it is everything advertised and more. Hope you enjoy it, the Platinum is a sweet ride!
