Default New F150 question???

I'm thinking about buying a new F150. Those of you that have a newer F150 whats your thoughts on it? I had an older F150 and I liked it but I don't know anyone with the newer body style.

Thanks for any info.

I have a 04 extended cab FX4 and love it. Have had many other F-150s and this truck is better in every way.

I had a 2wd 5.4 and loved it. Step dad has it now. Rides 3x better than the older ones and much more power(feeling at least). Only downside to me was that after a few mods gas was killing me. Hated running only 93 octane in it.

My dads got a 05 4x4 and the only down side is its slow as balls compared to his 2wd 02. Its probably slower bc its heavier bc of the 4x4. But overall its a great truck and you will enjoy it if u do get it.
