I was lucky enough to get a good deal on a F-150 Platinum and it came with the everything package (technology pac, luxuary pac, off road pac, class 4 towing pac and the extended fuel cell pac). Its the only vehicle I've ever owned that can give you message during a cross country road trip, while towing a house in the sand, while also being your dedicated mobile wifi hotspot, so your family can download astral charts and star gaze thru the full panoramic sun-roof. This truck is an absolute pleasure to drive.

I agree, I had an xlt f150 prior to buying a Platinum f150 4x4 and I will never go back to another trim. The Platinum trim literally has it all. The massage seats are the cherry on top.

I was too cheap for the XLT and stole some Bronco wheels for mine.

****I ordered and xl with awd and spray in bedliner on 7/17.
Salesman calls 8/8 say's
might want to order an xlt, possibly get it faster.
So did that, xlt with same options and kept both orders. Figured if they both came in around same time i'd sell one keep the other. The xl still isn't scheduled for production so gonna cancel it.
Picked up the xlt and salesman asked if i wanted to sell it. Nah, it has a home now.

I see they mount a pullup bar on the front bumper to make it easier to crawl back out from under it.
It would be nice if your Mercedes had something similar for all the time you spend working on it.

Thats aftermarket, you idiot! Some people install them so they can pull Fords out of the ditch.

Had a 69 Dodge Daytona Charger, 440 Magnum 6 Pack and automatic years ago, ran pretty well. Only owned it for a few months, someone came along and offered me many times what I had in it, so it went down the road.

I keep telling my wife she needs a new car and a Scatpack Charger would be perfect. She is almost convinced. :)

Do it now before Dodge phases out the big motors for electric and small displacement turbo motors. Unless you are into that kinda' thing I suppose.

As much as I hate electric cars and their absolutely hideous (kitty cat) repellent designs. I gotta admit they go pretty fast.

The Dodge dealers are marking up the rare versions sometimes $50,000 to $100,000 above sticker.

A friend of mine inherited a 2005 Cadillac XLR from her dad. Kinda cool, kinda weird. I'm starting to get used to the Cadillac accents on a Corvette type car.
