Go-C Graphics 856 Posted June 8, 2020 Still have the SRT8 Chrysler and I'm hoping to take it to the track soon. The time came to buy a newer vehicle and I wanted to make sure it'll tow the 2-ton beast to the track. Looking around for a dodge ram and dodge really screwed up flooding the market with their stupid quad cab. I wasn't about to buy a truck that I didn't fit comfortably in the back. Only 1 out of 10 rams I saw in my budget was a true crew cab and there was always something wrong with it. Ford on the other hand was killing it in the crew cab arena. I found plenty of nice examples and settled on the one I wanted. 2011 Ford F-150 FX2 with the 3.5L Ecoboost with only 70K miles on the clock. Black on Black with leather. Now I can comfortably tow the car to the track and not have to worry about making it home when I break it. So far the Ecoboost is giving me 16mpg around town and only needs regular gas. That alone saves me $70-80 a month in gas savings because I no longer have to run premium. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted June 8, 2020 Nice, found out on way to the smokies that if I get gas at the top of the mountain on the way to the bottom I can get 16mpg with the 3/4 ton ram . . . Sil has the Ford 1/2 ton and loves it. Also 1/2 ton better ride Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
