2014 5.0 litre f150 xlt. I needed a narrower truck for my wheeling habit or I'd still have it. Little v8 pulled like a 16 year old with a stack of Penthouses.

I work at a Ford dealership and picked up a 2015 3.5L F150 Lariat with 95k miles for my son two years ago and it's been great. I just traded in my daily driver Tacoma last week on a 2022 Ford F-150 Tremor with the 3.5L. We both plan on taking these trucks to 200k and based on what I've seen that shouldn't be a problem. Pre-2015, I'd go with the 5.0L V8.
That being said, one of the best values out there today is a F250 Superduty XLT or Lariat with the 7.3L V8..... 200k on a truck should be a given. I expect nothing more than brakes, tires and oil changes til 200,000 miles. I wouldn’t make a lateral trade from a Toyota to a Ford for any reason.

Got a 2006 f150 with the 5.4. pushing 300k. Still runs strong. Also have a 2005. Same truck right down to the color but rusted frame. 84k miles. It's signed up for an organ transplant in case the 06 needs it 👍

I've owned three Toyota Tacomas and four Ford F150s. Tacomas are great for some things but I prefer the utility, performance and comfort of a full size F150 plus the corrosion resistance of the aluminum body.
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21. Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!
