In the past 12 months, there's been a really interesting trend in the automotive space. One that is somewhat peculiar — to me, at least.
With the debut of super luxury pick-up trucks, people are ditching luxury sedans and other luxury vehicles to get into things like an all-new Ford F-150 King Ranch or the RAM Laramie Limited. These things aren't cheap, either. We're talking upwards of $65,000 if you tick all the option boxes when ordering.
Obviously these pick-ups offer a raised ride height and drive with a lot of confidence. What may surprise you though is that these vehicles offer all the accoutrements you'd expect in some of the latest, cutting-edge luxury sedans.
Take, for example, when I went out in Agent 001's F-150. Its seats had a massage function. It wasn't like those bogus massaging seats either, we're talking Audi A8 and Mercedes-Benz S-Class level here. And the ride quality was outstanding. Forget about the Cadillac Escalade, folks. The F-150 trumped it when it came to body control and how the suspension worked over uneven surfaces.
While we've seen inventory levels of these pick-ups lower significantly, I wanted to ask YOU: for $65,000 would YOU rather have a fully loaded, luxury pick-up truck OR a luxury SUV?
