I said this was going to be the first and last truck I ever buy, but I'm thinking 08 now. Love the Nav option and the storage int he bed, would be great for jet skii stuff and tools. Oh and yeah more power that I think the current 4.7 lacks, but then again dont really need to drag race it. I most likely will get another larime edition, maybe the awd option as I hate always spinning my tires when it is wet out.

I don't know, I like the front end a little more than mine. It kind of looks like the Gen I. The interior looks good too. I'll wait until 09 before I buy one. I love my truck and I'll probably give it to my son when he turns 16.
