The 09s are pretty nice but I still like my 06 better.

Bronco4Life · 01-08-2009, 04:04 PM

Ford tough, ain't nothing like it.

When the F150 has been the best rated pickup for 25+ some years, you'd think some the other manufacturers would just give the hell up. Especially the Toyotas and Nissans that don't even compare to the Ford, Chevy, and Dodge.

**XDAILY** · 01-08-2009, 04:19 PM

Nice, liked that, thanks for the link

I knew there was a reason I liked Mike Rowe.

I like my 08 better too. The 09's just don't look right. Tailgate is weird.

**Spazmo** · 01-08-2009, 05:26 PM

the toyota on the speed bumps made me laugh out loud, that was funny shit

dan76 · 01-08-2009, 05:42 PM

I thought the Dodge fuel door was going to shake off during the speed bump episode.

**loarmistead** · 01-08-2009, 07:46 PM

I almost fell out of my chair watching the way that Toyota's ass was bouncing around... and I didn't think the Dodge was gonna make it for a second there...

MYXD40 · 01-08-2009, 08:04 PM

Just hope this sucker is faster than before.. because the F150 is SLOOOOOOOOOW

***jackhart*** · 01-08-2009, 08:05 PM

you can bet it isn't, otherwise they would have had an acceleration test.

Never drove one but that's what I always heard from people who did. At low speeds it's a pig, but once it gets moving, it's pretty responsive. I am hoping the 6-speed transmission fixed some of that fat-pig slowness at lower speeds.

MYXD40 · 01-08-2009, 08:08 PM

I had an 08 F150 for a few weeks. 46 miles on it when I got it. Needless to say, comfortable ride..but it's slow from start to stop. It gets better..around 60mph or so. But honestly.. I'd much rather have the speed between the 20-40 mark for when I really need it..in the city.

chebbykiller · 01-08-2009, 08:14 PM

Of buddy of mine has an '06 or '07 with the 5.4l, and its definitely not a pig. What motor was in yours?

Need4racin · 01-08-2009, 08:18 PM

A FSB member did a ford proving ground test on the 09 f150s this past summer.

He posted it on f150online, let me see if I can find the link...

MYXD40 · 01-08-2009, 08:20 PM

5.4. Sorry..but they are slooooooow. And what I consider slow is.. I've owned my Titan for 5 years. I've raced silverado, f150, ram, tundra. If I was to put in order.. I'd say Tundra, Ram, Silverado, F150 in the order, starting with the quickest. I've yet to loose a race against another stock truck in its class. And I've had the pleasure to race my old co-workers 07 F150 fully loaded, with the bed full of dirt. My bed full of dirt (for a landscape job for a friend)..and he got over next to me at a red light. We had about 1 mile of open road, no cars around, bright sunny summer day. Needless to say, his truck did worse than when empty! And I had just as much dirt as him!!

Again let me say, I like the F150, it's a nice ride, looks good and comfortable as all sorts..just it is slacking BIG time when it comes to power

MYXD40 · 01-08-2009, 08:28 PM

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RT6EVe7f2lE supercharged F150 I can assume sence it's a HD it's got a 5.4..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BJ2H48OOtk Normal F150 (unknown what motor)

**NASSTY** · 01-08-2009, 08:35 PM

I can't remember what a stock F150 drives like.I've had a tune,cai and exhaust on my 06 for over 2.5 years.
