Yep yep, sounds like a great truck. Love it and I'm super jealous.

Also, many people fail to realize that ‘payload’ packages with gears and extra cooling and other accessories is to meet maximum TOWING ratings. If payload is your concern and not towing, there is practically very little additional stress on the drivetrain, just the suspension. You don’t need heavy duty everything to pull 2000 lb trailer and nor do you to carry 2000 lbs.

[ExtraSlow]

Sure, that's true, it's safer to be over your payload rating when carrying small heavy items in the bed vs being over the payload rating when towing a long trailer. But still not a bad idea to get a truck with specs that allows you to haul your normal items without exceeding the ratings.

Seems like some really good incentives this month. 0% up to 84 months, 4K factory rebate and 3 months payments covered by them.
Hmmm....

[ExtraSlow]

Yep, if you can buy now, this year has better offers than normal for June. Go buy one.

Just to echo ES a bit but you would likely be surprised to know how many crew cab half ton trucks are not rated to carry 2000 lb.

My Sierra isn’t even anywhere close to 2000, and it’s a beast of a truck.

It’s something more people would do well to be aware of.

I think @Darell_n knows all about this, but for anyone else wondering, we had a thread about this: https://forums.beyond.ca/threads/410...ayload-sticker
you can get an F150 as low as 1300lbs payload I think (platinum supercrew) or as high as 3200lbs (regular cab 2wd XL with payload package). Most supercrews seem to be between 1800 and 1600 from what I've seen.

I think a raptor was lower than my wrangler.

[ExtraSlow]

I don't count the Raptor as an F150, although shak might disagree, but yeah I think that was correct. My Odyssey beats a raptor.

Has anyone had the "The Inserted USB device is not responding" error constantly pop up on the screen? I have nothing plugged in to the USB ports yet it is always popping up every time I drive, and only goes away for a few seconds then happens again.

I really like those new Tremors. Sadly not enough to spend $80k on an XLT diesel.

I thought the Tremor package had the new 7.3L gasser...

But yeah, the Tremors are awesome. I have only seen the 350 versions, but I kinda am considering the 250, but I haven't seen one on a lot yet. I thought the Tremor was only a 250, but then I saw the dealers showing them all as 350s too. I have some more research to do apparently. The sucky thing about these is that their rebates suck.

It’s available with all three powertrains.

The new F150 is being shown a week from today.

, although I just got mine last year, still a year left on it, which should let them work out the kinks on the new powertrain

[redblack]

I guess that’s why some of the incentives end on June 18.

Not the 25th??

Mike Levine from Ford announced it on his twitter a couple weeks ago.

19th is what’s shown now online now. Either way it’s soon. Interested to see it.
Hopefully they fixed the interior. Current one is pretty bad and dated.

I don't mind this interior, I have seen a lot worse in other current offerings. *Coughchevcough*

Having said that, if the leaks from a few months ago were accurate on the new f150 interior, I don't think it is any better that what we have now in my '19

Nice.

I like the current one hahah.

I actually just bought a 2020 last month. I lucked out on the incentives.

Although they added 0% mid May, I did much better with pure rebates and negotiating just prior to that.

I’ve been following the 2021, sounds like it was going to be a redesign, but is just a hard refresh instead.

I’m curious to see if the ecoboosts head to gen three, but doesn’t sound like it.

In fact the time line got pushed back. The EV F-150 is still 24 months away.
