It's Official. The New Woodyboatermobile Is A Ford F150 Crew Cab!

Photographed in upstate NY on the return from the big show! It looks black, but in the light, turns brown

After long deliberation, a way to long deliberation we have chosen a new 2014 Ford F150 with an Ecoboost engine.  Thanks to fellow Woody Boaters Shawn Brozovich and Seth Katz for clinching the deal. For the record I test drove everything, Twice, I drove dealers crazy and waited. The new 2015 F150 is coming out soon and they are deal’n on 2014’s This is a Platinum edition with a twist. The ecoboost engine already is delivering around 19 miles per gallon and best thing. The Boatress approves.. She hated the Silverado, I think more because it was a base model.

Shawn works for Ford Motor Company and made the process fun and well… we have a Woody Boater at Ford! Seth owns several Ford trucks for the Marina and I fell in love with them this summer. I rode the  F450, F350 and F250, the F150 Ecoboost was the best fit for me since I drive a ton without a boat, so gas mileage is somewhat important.

In New York

The color is a cool Woody Boater brown, Almost a metalic Walnut color, with a Root Beer look. Officially called Kodiak Brown. We used a copper color vinyl lettering that sets it all off.

This is the sample shot with iphone with graphics photoshoped on to see how the colors go together. You can see the Kodiak brown in it in this light. Photo down the street at our neighborhood marina.

We de badged the truck, and added a color matched grill like the Limited edition to clean up the look. Why? Because the Limited edition doesn’t come in brown and has a strange blue interior.
