• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

New Toy Hauler

I've been looking at 4 door EcoBoosts as well. Used though. I have not bought a new truck since my '05 Silverado. Trucks have gone up in price a tad. Geesh!
 
The truck has 3 power modes. Normal (Driving), Tow/Haul, and Sport. Sport drastically changes the shift points and a bunch of other things in the truck. It's shockingly fast for such a small engine in such a big truck.
 
I have a '13 and love it. It's not even technically mine since its my work truck. I read a lot of scary stuff about the Ecoboost having weird lag issues when needed most.

I went for the new 5.0 CoyoteV8 and it's a beast. I get 20/22 highway, 15 city, and 18mpg avg with mixed highway, twisty road and off road mix.
