    Thanks, I'll let you know. On the F150, my remote start install was all of 5 minutes. If it's the same module, and I end up with one without it, I'll let you know and meet up with you one of the times I come up there to camp.

    I bought used and it has a cap that I admittedly did not include in what I valued the truck at, although it is really nice to have! I could have saved $500 and got a similar one but a sport trim from a different dealer but I like the OR package so much more.

    Tell me about it. A Dodge dealer did this to me, advertised one price but came in almost 2k more because they just advertised every possible incentive.

    No problem. I don't use it during the summer, and I'm 100% certain that I won't still have this truck by this fall, so I can pull it whenever, even if I haven't traded the truck yet.

    I was at something like $10k under MSRP after incentives on mine, which seems pretty typical and not too tough to get on an F150. The later in the model year, the better.

    I special ordered mine because the ones on lots had weird configurations. It's a 2.7L SuperCab XLT 302a with the sport package, tow package, drop in bed liner, power equipment package, and kicker sub in the lead foot color. I added the brake controller after the fact.

    Johnson's treated me really well...none of the games I am used to from dealers around here. It's the first time I have ever considered leaving the dealer sticker on the truck.

    How do you like the 2.7? I briefly considered a 150 or 1500 but decided I didn't need a larger truck.

    They go like stink. Only trouble is, they're all eco or all boost. I bought mine during 'windows down' season and it took me a couple of weeks to stop driving like a retard just to hear the turbos, and then I started getting good fuel mileage.

    Quite a lot so far. It is paired perfectly with the 10 speed. It's nearly silent, averages about 2 MPG better than my 4.0 Tacoma in similar situations. I have 3.73 gears which probably impacts economy a bit, but it is a seriously quick truck (sport mode is so much fun!).

    I didn't really need a full size but the way they are priced it made the most sense. This will tow 8100 lbs, payload is 1650ish. Plenty for my needs.

    Working. Day sucks so far; 2 people took the day off, 1 person left early because he was sick as a dog, and we're balls to the wall. Nearly 700 calls so far, split between 7 people. And now we're down to 6, lol

    So pissed off. Bought a 5x8 utility trailer and drove up to the RMV and apparently they’re closed in observance of Patriots Day which is Thursday. Needed a plate for it because I was planning on going to look at a mower I found on CL today :annoyed:
