New Blue Flame FX4

Hello Everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself and show a couple of pictures of my truck. Its a 2012 F-150 FX4 with 3.73's and all sorts of options. I live in Colorado but am working in Texas right now. The drive down was amazing in this truck; wouldn't trade it for any other truck. I am currently looking at either purchasing some 20" appearance package wheels or getting some XD Monster wheels. I really want black wheels and am searching all over the place for the 20" appearance package wheels. I will powdercoat or plasti-dip them if I find some grey ones but that will be my next mod.

Nice truck BTW, I was torn between that blue, and the red I got. I would have preferred blue, but the red truck was the right mix of options for me. Flame Blue Metallic is the best color on the FX4's in my humble opinion.

Awesome! Thank you...I PM'd him so we will see. He lives about 5hrs from me so I could meet him somewhere to snag them. I think the only option I wish I had was the appearance package but if I get the 20" wheels and powdercoat them black, I will be satisfied.

I LOVE the blue flame color...best color IMO, next best color is a white FX4.

Thanks!

I love the boost....I can't keep from flooring it!! I'm getting really crappy gas mileage but I didn't buy a truck to save gas...so its no big deal!

The only thing I'm missing are my wheels and a small leveling kit....once I get that....I will have the truck I want.

My MPG is real bad in boost but that's the price you pay (Get nothing for nothing these days)

Hey if you want fuel economy buy a Hyundai.
