Know what ya mean. Had to use a wooden step I kept in the back of my 06. Now you can get built in side and tail gate steps. I am thinking about getting another. May not go new, I don't care for the new tail gate style.
That 09 looks great.

Wow! that is definitely one beautiful truck. :thup:

OK, so we've all "read" about how much you like the interior, now how about posting up a couple of shots for us common folk? :wink:

Thinking that 2011 is the year we get a new-er pulling truck for the 5th wheel. Then I can work on fixing up Mr. Leaky. 8)
Seeing threads like this, really gets me motivated.
Which engine did you get? How's the mileage and power?
What can you pull, and more importantly, how much weight can you put in the bed and stay under the GVWR?

You know... "enquiring minds need to know" :D

I just acquired a new leftover 2010 f150. It's my first new purchase in 20 years and my, how things have changed. This truck was ordered without any options and still has v8, auto, am/fm and AC. Pretty much what you got with a Ranger XLT back in the dentside day. I really like the way it rides and drives out, but dang! Why is the bed so darn deep:)

On the plus side, the rust through warranty is indefinite and they're giving some pretty decent rebates on these leftovers. Even the exhaust sounds good.
