F250 6.2 V8 vs F150 Ecoboost

[semntrails]

deere5105 - you had mentioned wanting leather seats and having a hard time finding it. If the truck you are looking at now doesn't work out ask the dealers about after market leather. I did that with a used Expedition, all the dealers I talked to said they do it all the time replacing the cloth with leather and adding heat, looks factory and at the time they claimed the leather was better than factory. Cost was ~$1,600 for 3 rows of seats with heat pads installed. Saved a lot of money vs trying to find one that had the leather factory installed.

Here is one found this morning. I don't see any mention of what tires/wheels are on it. What does your 2011 have?

Have you looked at any lariats or FX4s? With the 302A and leather a lariat or FX4 maybe about the same price.

That looks well equiped. My truck haa P rated tires. You have to get the max payload package to get LT tires. You have to get the 6.5 bed with the Supercrew to get max payload and I didn't want that long of truck.

I have an FX4 with leather now, but they are running around $9500 off on the 302A packages for some reason.

I must have the weirdest optioned truck in the world or my dealer just knows how to order them.

My 2012 F-150 Ecoboost has 7,200# GVWR, Super Crew, 5.5 bed, LT 18" tires, big mirrors, 3.73 gears.

This is what I am torn between 18" wheels with cloth 40/20/40 or 20" wheels with leather buckets.

That does seem unusual based on what I have seen on the lots. Of course, I guess you could order whatever you wanted if didn't mind the wait.

I ordered mine myself. Your LT tires are NOT stock without max payload and yours doesn't have max payload with 5.5 bed. The big mirrors only come with the max tow in the US but can be ordered and installed after build.

Both are nice trucks. I like the one on the right better because of the wheels and console.

Does the truck on the right have a leveling kit? It looks like it sits high in the front for a stock truck. The 302a package was hard to find with a console. I'm not sure if it still is. I guess it comes with leather or is optional with cloth.
