New FX4!

Okay, well I finally took delivery of my FX4. I got it loaded out with al the neat bells and whistles. I just need to get some wax on her and I think the paint will pop some more. I really dig the truck - rides much smoother than my 06 KR. The one thing I must get used to is those big mirrors. They are starting to grow on me, but I sure wish they were power fold. I was impressed by the rubber floor mats - let me tell you the rear mat is awesome! It goes all the way under the seat and is cut for the sub woofer. I usually remove the carpet mats and go with WeatherTech, but Ford saved me soem money! Here are some pics. I hope they load!

BTW, I know the pics may not be the way to tell, but I am unsure to get the 2" or 2 1/2" AS level kit? Guidance?

I did get the windows tinted already. I went with 15% all the way around and the front strip across the windshield is 5%.

I need to Line-X, Tonneau cover, and level the front.

congrats, looks good. So where's the pic of the rear mat?

Do you usually get the Weathtech "Floorliner" model? That's what I'm waiting for, they said a few more weeks until their rear F150 mat is out.

I like the tint too, mine is going in on Tuesday for tint. I think I might go with 20% on the front doors.

Here is a pic from the passenger side:



This is a pretty rotten pic, but you can see what I am talking about:

thanks. that's impressive for an "optional" Factory mat. The "standard" factory mats are a joke (size/coverage wise). I'm still going to wait it out for the Weathertech's, like I said they don't have the rear Floorliner made yet, but they do the fronts.

That is the standard mat for the FX4. I got the regular mirrors in my loaded FX4 since I won't be doing much towing. Also not a fan of big wheels so I paid to downsize to the 17". I went all stearling grey.

I am considering leveling it but I wont be changing tire sizes so I wont get any benefit from it. I am going with a DualLiner and also considering billet grille from grille4u

Thanks for the comments.

Anyone know the best way to measure for the leveling kit? I a seeting toward the 2" AS kit, but want to make sure I get it right the first time. I've read where some went with the 2 1/2" inch kit the front was slightly higher than the rear.

Right. I had the "Digital Floorliner" or something to that effect. I've had them in every truck/car I've had - except this one.
