After renting the pickup from u-haul I decided we need a truck, Lisa agreed. So I looked around and found this 2008 F-150 Lariat edition, all the bells and whistles. 5.4L V8, 4X4 blah, blah, blah... Got it for over $10K under sticker out the door. 12mi on the odo

Question no 1: Will the bed fit a full sheet of plywood flat?

Question no 2: White interior on a truck? Isn't that going to get dirty?

Congrats. Having a pickup around would sure make life easier a lot of times.

6.5 ft bed so it won't hold a sheet of ply flat without the tailgate open. Interior is tan vinyl so easy to clean but I'm not a construction worker so it's not going to get that dirty anyway. Withthe house projects we have planned this is going to be a necessity or pay $$$ to rent one all the time. It cost $45 to rent the truck just to go 20mi (roundtrip) for the mill.

Nice! Congrats.

I love Ford trucks. That's about the only thing they build right. :thumbup:

Not sure if they offer it in the F-150, but those Power Stroke Diesel engines are crazy. :ack:

even as a General fan, i have to admit the F150 is awesom-ah pow-ah > the Silverado.
