    As an owner of one for a few months i think your really gonna like it. Mine is still fun to drive, although i,m still not getting the milleage they claim it should.
    I still have issues with heavy foot so that may be the problem ,but i have heard ,like many new vehichles there is a Breakin point ,that is actually holding the vehichles back from optimum milleage.... Still waiting.
    I have a service appointment this weekend , Slight vibration ... suspecting driveshaft,unbalanced so a new one is ordered, gotta ask about the milleage issue when i go. Forgot the last time in.

    As for the trailer screen on the dash , READ the book because it can and will do lots of things, i try not to mess around but i did notice when pulling another trailer once all kinds of sensors and a screen display came up . I did as little as possible trying not to mess things up.

    I really love this truck and i think you will too.There now are many upgrade packages out there to give more power and mileage, ive pretty much picked what i want, but want to wait till a little more warranty has expired as most are not Ford approved. Rousch which is approved , HAD a cold air box but has taken it off the market as they have/had some issues,so hopefully they get it figured out soon, then cat back exhaust from Rousch ,maybe and a tuner. Winter is apon us so i will wait till i can actually use the extra power... Anyways good luck . Keep us posted.
