The 1st time you feel -50 Celsius (-58 Fahrenheit ) you'll be running for the exit. I know every winter I question why I still live here.... Plus, riding & camping season is only 6 months... My bike and travel trailer are already put away for the winter...

It's possible it's different. I know for 2024 and up, in Canada you can get an F150 SuperCrew 6.5" box with the black appearance pkg which swaps out chrome for body color bumpers & door handles plus gets you the console shift. Kind of like the old 'Sport' package. That's not an option in the...

Out of curiosity, what is your payload on a Tradesman with the Power Wagon package? What are you towing for a trailer, an RV?

They did in Canada for 2024. Not sure if they will for 2025. But, unless you just want the extra payload, price wise here, a Tradesman with the Power Wagon package is pretty close to a regular Power Wagon anyway. And, the regular Power Wagon will probably retain it's resale better.

They did! https://www.motor1.com/reviews/696031/toyota-cheap-pickup-concept-review/

Well I was more thinking in terms of perspective. As in a 75 year old guy would say being only 41 is still young. You took it down a weird Michael Jackson path... 😬

Depending on your point of view 41 is young. ;)

Scout's are much bigger than their Rivian counter parts. Scout truck is a foot longer than the Rivian. https://www.autoblog.com/news/rivian-vs-scout-range-performance-tech-dimensions-and-more

Looks like they might be planning a 2 door Bronco / Wrangler competitor. That could be interseting! https://www.autospies.com/news/index.aspx?submissionid=123289

I found the same coming from a 5.0. Out of curiosity do the 2018 - 2019's have Sport mode? I usually drive in Eco but, when I switch into Sport, you can def tell a difference. @ITTOG If your truck has this feature, have you tried driving in this mode?

Panzer campers?

@Peter_n_Margaret This popped up in my Facebook feed today. Figure you might need it as a tiny mascot for your travels, haha Looks like a good match to yours:

Yep, same here. Boo. Dumb winter...

It does look like a nicely equipped truck. That being said, with the Rebels off road biased suspension and that amount of options added on, I would check the payload rating for that truck to ensure it will meet your needs. Do you plan on hauling or towing with this truck?

Exaclty. The low end torque is what prompted my move from a 5.0L to a 3.5. Funny enough after 50,000 miles the 10 speed in my 2022 has been fine. I believe this transmission is used in a few vehicles including the Super Duty. My 6 spd in my 2015 gave me grief. Same issue that was recall in...

Ford now offers a factory tune for the 3.5. Personally I'll pass. I'm leaving my drivetrain stock. Plenty of power for me. If I make my truck any worse on gas, I might as well just get a 1 ton Godzilla, lol... My 35's already brought me down to an average of 18 mpg...

At that point I'd probably just get a 3/4 ton.

I do find the turbos spool up as well. But, not terribly often. With my previous 5.0 it would sit at 4,500 RPM forever at the slightest incline of a flat road. Maybe the 10 spd would be better? Even after the road leveled off, it would take forever and ever to downshift. Overall, I would say...

Agreed. My previous truck was a 2015 F150 w/ 5.0L - 6 Spd & 3:73's. My 2022 has the EcoBoost & 3:55's. No comparison when it comes to towing. EcoBoost hands down. I don't think I'd ever go back to an N/A V8 for towing.
