Another New Guy

Hey everyone.
I joined here a while ago but the new truck didn't work out then so I was more of an observer.
Last night I finally did pick up my new 2006 FX4.
Great forum here by the way.

I was a GM guy and the quality had gone so far down hill that I couldnt do it again. Then Ford came out with the 04 body style and that made the decision for me. These trucks are great.

Always nice to see a convert. So far so good though?

Welcome! Truck looks awesome!! Wanna trade wheels/tires? Regarding your step boards, is that a chrome strip I see along the side? I like those and may add them to my truck. I wanted the Harley step boards, but I don't think they will fit a Supercrew.

We do not have heated seats in the FX4 yet. I opted for cloth for now but I may change it later.

Welcome to the boards. Are those wheels 18"? Those must be the new FX4 design. I really my '05. It looks just like your's save for the color. Let the mod's begin.

WELCOME! Look like 20's to me. And it does not look like it has the horrible rake like they all do or is it just me? Did you do something to the suspention (leveling)?

The wheels are the 20's with the Pirelli Scorpions. It is totally stock . I have had it for just over 24 hours.
I sure love the way it drives .

I was going to comment on the same leveling thing. It does seem to sit nicer. Maybe it is where the truck is parked.
