You KNOW they are getting more expensive with there are 96 month terms available. I about flipped my lid when I saw that.

Yeah I know, how many actually make it to 60 months with out needing some decent money dropped in them? I think it is getting a little rediculous.

Seem like the lift is a big part of the issue to me. Why not put it back to stock if you can? You could probably find someone that wants it that you could sell it to and then trade any parts that you modded for the lift. I just don't see selling such a new truck that you have a good bit of $$ into. For a brand new truck that is probably not as good as the one you have, but its your $$$$. Or maybe you should get a commuter vehicle?

I wouldn't say the LMM is unproven its relatively the same engine as it was in 2004.5 and the same minus the PDF since 06. There are several around with over 300K and several over 500RWHP.

Jesse, If you like the new Ford, buy one bro. I would buy one if I could justify it. My wife would have my ***** in her purse, even more than she already does I love my cummins, but if I had to keep throwing money at it, I'd probably look into something different. The only money I have thrown at my truck is for mods, and maintenance.
