Traded F250 for F150 6.2

[4DRULES]

I decided to trade my 2009 F250 in on a nice 2011 F150 lariat limited AWD with 22,000 miles. I like it a lot. Plenty of power and a smooth ride.

Traded this.....






For this.....

Just hearing about all the crap with the epa and how they want to crack down on it. Also I never do any towing really so don't need the diesel for that. Don't get me wrong I loved the F250 and all the mods I had done but it was really impulse also, just wanting something different I guess.

bad trade imo... but I'm a diesel fan... looks like a sweet F-150 though!

Not a bad trade if he doesn't need a diesel. I've about traded mine in as well. The maintenance and repair costs are astronomical compared to an f150.

For the features I traded for it was definitely worth it to me. My diesel was the base xlt while this one has a sunroof, leather, navigation, retractable steps, backup camera with backup sensors and is eligible for the 3yr 36k warranty still. All this that my f250 didn't have.

true.. but as a diesel enthusiast i don't think i'll ever be able to get rid of my truck.. and if i do.. i'd have to get another diesel.. i just love the sound, smell, and power

Thats why I didn't go through with the trade.

personal preferance, im an enthusiast of money in my pocket, If I can make the same amount of money with a gas truck as I can a diesel, but spend less money on fuel and maintence, I am keeping more money in my pocket, With all this tree hugger crap I dont think I would buy another diesel unless I was pulling over 9-10k behind the truck atleast 3 times a week.

nice looking truck OP
