Truck help please...which 4WD system for the money thatb has Auto

Gusto,

Don't know if you are buying new or used, but if you can find a solid used truck with everything you want you can save a ton. My last two trucks have been used and unless I win the lottery I doubt I'll buy new anytime soon. That initial hit on value hurts, so I let somebody else absorb it for me. Good luck!

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I have resigned myself to dropping into a Sport or XLT and giving up the auto feature mainly to get the payment down. I like the Lariat with leather and 4Auto but as stated here I can live without it.

If your not opposed to a Chevy the auto 4wd is standard on LT. That said with the traction control four-wheel-drive is used very little on snowy pavement in my truck. I generally run slick roads in 2H or 4H rarely 4Auto.

I second this. I totaled my '07 F150FX4SuperCab in Dec. I knew I didn't want the payments of a new '16/'17 of the same model to replace it. Looked around online at all the used Vehicle sites, was willing to fly and drive for the right deal/truck, was lucky enough to find an '14 w/ a clean Carfax and only 11,600mi on it, only about 140mi away. Saved about $25,000 off sticker on that deal and got a basically just broke-in new truck with all the options I wanted; and even some factory warranty left on it too. I don't think I will ever buy another new vehicle again.
