The real question is if there is a leveling kit and larger than stock tires in its future.

The unthinkable has happened...



The dealer I was talking to was getting the truck transferred from another dealer. Well, the other dealer sold it less than 30 minutes ago.


I'm back at square one.

Unbelievable.

Let him know he needs to find the same truck, or you're going to a different dealer. make them throw in a leveling kit, yeti sticker, and light bar for good measure.

Oh, he knows... He's already getting after it trying to find another one. But it really wasn't his fault. If I hadn't had to convince the wife this was a good idea to replace my vehicle before hers it wouldn't have taken me as long to make a decision

Done deal.

First time back in a ford since 2010. Couldn't be happier.



Haven't taken an interior pic but it's tan.Salt life stickers should be here in a couple days. Guy on Craigslist said they are special edition. Gonna order my light bar today.

Yep. It's a beast. Passing on the highway is a breeze. Going from a Yukon to this really allowed me to see just how sluggish that thing was. Passing/hills/towing was frustrating as all get-out in the Yukon, but this truck is a pleasure to drive.

That looks almost identical to mine, sans the Ecoboost. I went with the 5.0. Congrats on a really great truck. I love every minute of driving it. I hope you got the back up camera. If so, go to options and add the lines on the screen. The black dotted one in the center is perfect for backing up to your hitch. Perfect on the first try every time.

It does. I've been tinkering with it and mine has a zoom option that allows me to see just the ball. It's pretty darn handy. Haven't hauled anything yet though. I'm going to find an excuse for something to get moved here in the next few days though

Good deal. One more thing, when you hit reverse with the tailgate down, be prepared for a fright. The alarm will scare the crap out of you.
