2-3 years. Will trade for the new interior and pro power generator. They will probably bump the motor to 1100 ft pounds soon to beat ram now lol
 
about 5 years. Plan on upgrading to a newer generation truck if there are fancy new options like the onboard generator from the f150. I've had a ton of cars over the years. If I had more money and garage space I'd have a dozen more

Only reason I’d get rid of is A. Lithium color or combo of A and B which is the new dash from 21 F150 which is only thing holding me back now.

If the past 40 yrs is an indicator, it'll be every year or two. I've only owned one vehicle over 3 yrs.
 
I go through trucks like underwear and always say it's my last truck. I'm trading in a 2019 Ram for this one. My 2017 F350 dually is probably the longest held vehicle in quite a while, it only has 10k miles on it and I only use it to pull my camper. My Ram only has 11,400 miles so none of my vehicles get driven a lot since I work from home. I'm putting a pretty significant down payment down on the Tremor so the plan is to keep it for a long time but who knows.
 
I usually change vehicles every 2-3 years. No reason in particular and it’s a bad financial habit, but it is what it is.

In 2013 I bought a new 6.7 F250. I liked that truck but sold it in 2017 for $40k and paid cash ($39.5k) for a new TRD 4Runner. The 4Runner was a fantastic, bullet proof vehicle. However, within a year or two, we really missed the F250. That gave me a couple years to consider exactly what I did and didn’t want when I moved back into a full size. Now I’m back into the 2020 F250 Tremor that checked all my boxes.

I’m considering getting the 7 year, 150k mile Ford Premium Warranty and keeping this one for a while. I’m putting about $15k into aftermarket parts into it, so it might be worthwhile.
 
My company gives me a healthy monthly stipend towards a personal vehicle to utilize for work (I pay the difference). They also pay for my gas and insurance, so I am very blessed and fortunate. This makes it easier to trade sooner than later and when the generation two comes out, I’m quite certain I will trade.

Mine is still on order, but so long as it does what I need it to (I ordered the 7.3 and am coming from a built 6.0 PSD), then I intend to keep it for 10+ years.
