So what are your first mods going to be?

There's a question... I'm sure everyone has something planned to customize in their F-150...from a bigger stereo to a lift...list what you intend to do first...

Right off the bat I'm doing the following (in this order):
1) Rhino Liner
2) Bigger Tires + 4" - 6" lift (still need to decide on the height)
3) 14" Disc brakes for all 4 tires
4) 6" Screen in the dash w/ DVD+CD Player (getting rid of the factory cd)

and a few other things along the way to improve performance since it seems that the off-the-line performance needs a little tweaking.

1: Line-x liner
2: Retrax cover
3: K&N air filter (when available, or similar product)
4: Three-note Air Horn (gotta have an air horn man!)
5: GPS navigation (depending on price/availability)

I'm sure I'll think of more.

Bed Liner
Bugshield/side-window deflectors
Remote Start
Lo-Jack

does it come with mud flaps?

and does the Lariat SCrew overhead rail come with all the spots filled with empty bins? If not, I'll get enough to fill the whole rack, looks weird if not full.

Mine's now on hold until just before spring. I couldn't see driving it out of the lot into late fall/winter. I've done that twice before and regretted it both times because of my haste to 'have it first'. I know I'll be so much happier if I get a whole warm season in my brand new truck before the winter hits again!

Plus, it'll give my dealer enough time to figure out the 'tough' questions, like, "Will the bedliner be installed before I pick it up?"

Ordered the splash guards today. (Truck isn't here yet) Plan on getting front windows tinted and some type of bed liner/ spray in liner/ bedrug. Here in Virginia we are restricted on the amount of tint on the front side windows(also radar detectors are against the law) but I want to get them as dark as possible to help offset all that white paint. Any suggestions on tint? Type/manufacturer/installer/ etc?? Also I like the Gibson dual side exit exhaust system when available. Gibson says check back in 3 weeks.
