Tully Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hi y’all ~ This is my first post. We bought a 2015 Titainium last November. Looking online, we found it but, the price and mileage didn’t make sense. It It turned out a Ford dealer in CO had bought it at the end of 2015 model year. Not a single person looked at it. So it hung around , used as a loaner, rental and shuttle. After a hail storm destroyed their entire inventory. F-150 ,250,350....are the only sales besides 2-3 cars per annum. Happily it had not been used winters as they said it “would crash real easy”. The plan is to remove the leather seats and design as a ultra-light camper. Being a Prius owner of 5 years while driving home cross country the 25mpg Ford was a shocker ouch!!! Hoping to meet some of you and get some information to trick it out . Thanks Karasmyth and Tully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoAl Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Welcome, there are a number of posts about folks camping with their TC's. I have a '16 bought new in November. I have plans to camp some in mine but not so much to turn it in a camper but taking it places and spending a night or two in it. LOL about the gas mileage shock. I've had a Volt for 4 years and having to get used to watching the gas gauge was a shock. Generally I only use gas when on a trip and sometimes go weeks without using any in the car. Also have a supersport motorcycle and after riding a bit have to remember acceleration isn't instant. Like the color, mine is white but that is good in the summer here. If you are getting rid of the seats, the middle seats will be a very easy sell. People are all the time looking for the two middle seats to replace the three seat configuration.

G B L Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 welcome there are lots of people doing the van camper route , lots of info here. You both should Rent an F350 Crew cab for a day, it will take the edge of the fuel mileage shock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiquay Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I've ordered mine in February but I'll see a few more calendar pictures before I see my wagon. Camping is the main thing on my list that put the FTC at the top - no intention of removing the seating, but building a bed that fits on top of the fold-flat that nothing else on the market does! I'm coming to it from a Mazda B truck so the pump shock will be in reverse. Happy roads to you! GK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
