Only issue I am seeing is a noticeable shuddering at low MPH. Perfectly smooth at higher RPMs and MPH, so probably very aggressive fuel economy tactic to put her in such a high gear at such low speeds.
Stats:
Fully loaded lariat. Only missing the wheel well liners (wanted to spray first) and the external accessories. Even have the extended range tank (500+ mi range).
3.5L Ecoboost
FX4 + upgraded tow package (including mirrors)
Blue Jeans Metallic w/ black interior
Already took off the FX4 stickers and the front plate today . So much better (that red looked awful on the blue).
Getting her tinted all around (not dark enough in the back either), LINE-X sprayed, and topped with a Leer Trilogy next week.
Measuring the wheel, lift, and tire upgrades I want to make sure I don't violate my workplace's garage ceiling limits .
Happy first truck, first Ford guy.

I meant to say a bit different configuration. Mine is the same color, but with the shorter bed and a couple of other things. I shouldn't say "mine" as it is somewhere out in the either as I wait daily for an update.
Haha so mean, but yeah. We're rearranging things in the garage to make it fit. We're building a new house because, among other things, the freaking garage is this suburban joke called a 2-car garage that barely fit two normal sized sedans, let alone an SUV and a pickup. Garage is certainly long enough, just an issue of width. Folding the mirrors before pulling in required.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Speaking of garages, I have to fold my mirrors too to park my truck beside my "daily drive". And, it would be a tight squeeze to get an SCrew with a 6.5' bed in too. This new one of mine already has a longer wheelbase than the old King Ranch, and I have to do an extra pull forward and backup to turn around in the driveway to get it out. I have a big pine tree right in the middle of my driveway, and I came very close to scraping the side of the truck on it the first time I tried it without the extra maneuvering.
I know, I should probably cut the tree down, but it provides some shade when I'm working out there.
