Hey everyone. So I have been a car guy for the last 10 years. Funny story why I started in with cars too. In 2004 I bought a new F150 regular cab FX4 and brought it home to my apartment garage. It was going to be a toy truck because I had a company car, but it was not meant to be at that time. Long story short, the truck would not fit into the parking garage at the apartment complex. It was a few inches too tall, and would have nailed the roof of the truck on the top of the door opening. Luckily my friend was the manager at the Ford dealer, and I had only put a few miles on the new truck, so he took it back for me. But my trade was already wholesaled, so I needed to get something else. Well out of all the new and used cars he had, a screaming yellow Mustang GT caught my eye. I ended up getting that car, and since then(2004) I have owned that car, an 04 cobra, 07 C6 corvette, 09 Shelby GT500, (2) 2011 Mustangs and now my 2011 Corvette Grandsport. But Im getting older now(33), and my personal wants/needs have grown and shifted to what my young family's needs/wants are. I have two toddlers and a wife and the corvette is only fun for me. So I have always loved trucks, plus want to get into camping with a travel trailer, and now seems to be a great time for this. Only issue I have now is I need a truck to get that camper. The only truck I would consider would be some sort of super duty diesel or the F150 ecoboost. I like the $10k+ off sticker for the F150 plus just daily driving a loaded Ecoboost would be great. And it should pull the 26' crossroads travel trailer.
What I want would be a fully loaded '13 FX4 supercrew with the short bed, highest rear end ratio, all the bells and whistles like nav and b/u cam and whatnot. I also want that appearance package. I love the look of the dark wheels and graphics.
But anyway, I will be here lurking and reading everything I can. Hopefully I will be shopping in spring for one. I want to keep the vette for the remainder of the summer, and will have to keep it through winter until spring, as not to give the dealers the excuse to try and steal it from me because they claim that "nobody buys cars like this in the winter and it will just sit....". Whatever stealership.
