So I was kind of questioning getting the Lariat as I'm used to an XLT without all the frills, but today I discovered my new truck and I are soul mates.

My truck was assembled on my birthday!!! Actually it began production on my moms birthday (a Friday) and was completed on my birthday the following Monday.

Now I need to go and check that they tightened the lug nuts and put the windows in!!! My last truck was built midweek, now my new one was built while everyone had the weekend on their mind followed by a case of the Mondays!!! Hopefully she doesn't fall apart on me, might have to get that extended warranty now.

 

OK, so how does one determine the exact build dates. I have determined mine was made 09/2010, but how did you come up with the day?

Ok then.

 

Any pictures of the new truck?

 

Yes pics please! Sounds like a sweet ride.

 

Someone needs a girlfriend, quick.

 

I love my truck too.... soulmate...... no, but I have never had a Lariat, 3 XLT's.....

 

sadly the truck will probably last longer than the relationship

 

Here's a link to the pics, I haven't had time to resize them for this site yet.

You might be right, 18 month old at home and the wife's almost 8 months pregnant so my new truck and I are bonding nicely!!!

 

Did have my first issue this morning. For some reason the drivers speaker (Sony Premium) kept cutting in and out and sounded like it was blown. After 10 minutes back to normal. Might have a loose wire and since it was around 20* this morning might have had something to do with it.
