Ford Guys, Talk to me about the FX2.

You are dead to me.

I'm not feeling the new body FX2s.

What about the FX4, or Lariats? I read on another Ford forum that you can get the Lariat for pretty much the same price since FX2s are rare.

FX4 FTW:

No 4X4 this time. I don't need it at all.

Does fuel economy matter?

I went to the Chevy dealership, I hate to say it but that Chevy front end just hasn't grown on me yet. There's just something about it that I don't care for.

I have been a Chevrolet man my entire life but I just don't care for the new body style.

I'll give you a deal. Plus with the brush guard it looks badass.

I'm sure you would and yes your truck looks bad ass, I just don't think I want a Chevy again. I may have bumped my head or something, it's hard to explain.

May have???

If your going to the dark side...at least wait for the boat anchors to be removed and replaced by the 2011 power trains.

I got dibs on the supercharger...

Yes to some degree it does. I don't want to get less than 18 on the highway. I usually get 18 to 20 now with the Silverado. I just don't want to go backwards.

Then forget the 2010 F-150.

Physics suggests that a tepid 5.4-liter V8 that makes 310 hp (in the heaviest truck, no less) should not be able to out-tow others that boast 380 hp and up. Physics is right. Furthermore, the 3.73:1 axle ratio that's needed to generate the advertised tow rating drastically affects everyday fuel economy. Our unburdened F-150 achieved 12.6 mpg, well below the window sticker ratings of 14 mpg city and 18 mpg highway (which were achieved with the standard 3.55:1 ratio).

How much are you looking to spend?
