Oh no....I have the 5.5 bed! No real change......but I can see the hood better!

And you do need to have the headlight aim adjusted. I still need to do that.

I just heard on the news that Ford is closing the F150 line for 6 months. Even those that were on order will be delayed during this period. No more shipments until all dealer stock is cleared. Is that OK Hotlap?

That reminds me. Who see the stuff about dodge and the rebates. Seems like it's getting them into even more financial trouble and are gaining market share but not making any profit. The news people said that this was a very bad move. They have so many trucks sitting around that they need to cut production as they are costing them self so much money and doing their brand harm by making them seem like a cheap brand.

They said ford is doing the opposite. The said they are reducing incentives top keep the profit margin and it seems to be working very well from what the news people said. They also said resale values of the Ford are much higher.

Well, now that you asked, I just spoke with my dealer about an hour ago and it's BUILT FORD TOUGH and sitting on the ramp in Dearborn ready to ship He says 10 days max

PS Timing is right too as CA just passed an across the board 1% increase in sales tax that kicks in 4/1/2009....
