Introducing myself & my XLT

Just wanted to introduce myself and my first F150.

I got the sterling gray supercrew 4x4 with the 5.0 with the Trailer, Off Road, Convenience, and Plus packages. I'm keeping the mods basic/low budget for now. I had the dealer swap out the OE tires for some 285/70 BFG A/T's on stock rims, then I tinted the windows. I plan on spraying bedliner in the rear wheel wells, blacking-out the reflectors on the mirrors, and filling the gap behind the front license plate with something.

Glad to have the resources here... I'll be checking in regularly. Here's my truck...

Thanks for posting the pic. I'm using a new Mac after owning PC's for 25 years and had trouble with cut/paste!

Nice looking truck but you shouldn't had needed to upgrade your tires, my 2010 4X4 came with Michelin LTX A/T 2 which actually rated higher than the All Terrain BFG. Hopefully they didn't charge you for the change over.

Nice looking truck, enjoy.
