I think you will like the truck.  It is like a cowboy Caddie.  Ride is good, tons of power, and even pretty good gas mileage for a truck.  I put a roll up bed cover on mine, and had seals put on the tailgate.  Things stay completely dry in the back.

Wow!  Very nice.  Do you not have a Jeep at all now?

It has the brake controller.  Push a button and it goes into towing mode to.  In a couple of weeks I'll be towing the Pod.  Can't wait!

Looks a lot like mine.  I have a 2010 with a 5.7 and 6 speed auto.  Mine is a 4X4 but didn't get the OFFROAD trim package (but have the skid plates).  It pulls a pod like a dream.  Do you have the factory brake controller?

I sold my Jeep and got this 2011 Ford F-150 XLT 4X4.  5.0L V-8 6 speed automatic.
