nice truck man! I got an 09 lariat this week. love mine! The backup cam is awesome, and that tied with the reverse sensors really make it easy to back. Of course with the cooled front seats and Sync I dont want to get out when I get there

Close! No tow mirrors for me. I'm sure I'd be knocking into things with those like crazy, lol.
I'm guessing you have the FX4 Lux package because of the body color handles. The '10 I was originally going for had the Lux package, nice setup! I think you and I both need the Raptor/HD tails and headlights though.

It feels beefier than my dad's new F350 which I don't even know how is possible. The 350 is a beast, but it sits up high and you can see everything.

I just got an 09 FX4 also. I am comming out of a 06 F-250 6.0 FX4 XLT Sport. I was starting to have issues at 40k. So I switched back to the F-150 gas truck. I got an loaded truck even got the Nav system and I'm impressed.

I'll get some tommorrow. I need to get a good coat of wax on it. I am no stranger to an F-150. I had an 98 and a 99. I also have an 05 work truck from my company with 142k ans never been in for a repair. So the 05 sold me on the new version.

Well got the truck washed and waxed. It took all afternoon. I had use a mild compound on it because the paint had some kind of film all over the truck the paint was not smooth at all. This truck was at the dealer since Jan of this year so I guess it was from sitting so much. I do know that FORD has put an awsome paint job on this truck. I did not have any acid rain damage from it sitting so long out side. I could not find any flaws in at all. It looks great! I'll take some pic's later it's cloudy today and rain tommorrow. BTW I am a paint job freak!!
