[QUOTE="Blk04L, post: 15961046, member: 48574"] Only 13/14's I've seen that high have either been very good builds that would outrun stock Gen 2's in the dirt or some delusional owner with a low mile stock Gen 1. General rule doesn't apply in this situation. It's still a highly sought after truck for attention grabbing and "offroading". They still offer practical purposes for family hauling and basic bed usage to boot. Unless the truck is beat up, they don't last long on lots. Now as gas keeps rising you'll see their value dip when the owners can't afford to fill 36 gallon tanks at 4 bucks a gallon. Gen 1 mileage was 11 city, 16 hwy. Gen 2 mileage estimate is 15 city, 18 highway. There is no nearly double improvement on MPG. You mean nearly 50% improvement, on city? The 6.2 was a solid rather bulletproof engine. It may of been a dud in terms of adding more power but ford built it to last, which is why it was also in the super duty HD trucks. Barely an improvement over the 5.4L, that made 310hp/365 trq? Most times 411hp/434trq can get you into a lot of trouble on the dirt, even in a 3 ton tank. [USER=114682]@earico[/USER] I would argue it's due to the interest in trucks as a luxury vehicle. 8 years ago trucks barely had the same shit they have now. Lane assist, blind spot, 360 cameras, auto park/brake etc worlds better interior, engines, etc. You can still get almost the same bland interiors you found 8 or so years ago in the base to lower trimmed trucks at the 30-40k price mark. But no one wants a XL/XLT when their neighbor has a Limited or Raptor. [/QUOTE]
