I ordered 3.73 because I do a lot of towing. I hope that reading is close because it can only go up once broken in.

Yeah I'm scared to hand calculate cause I don't want to be disappointed...but yes I do have 3.55s.

I did take one 65 mph trip around the loop and it kept going up slowly..was up to 22 after about 5 minutes...well see soon. Who know how accurate the reading is though.

Let us know, at least how many miles you're getting per tank, what you're getting when your beating on it.

Lol sounds like fun to me! I'll have to see if I can get work to understand why I'm leaving..

Yeah PitCritter I'm sure your very ready for yours. Wasn't your initial order placed sometime in september for a 2010 but that fell through?

I like those wheels. I think they would look good on my color scheme. Looks like they only offer those in 20" dia though.

Are the F150s any dif than previous exterior? Do you have to look for a badge in order to identify?

What kind of deals are buyers of 2011 F150s getting anyway? A few grand off MSRP?

There are two easy ways to tell an '11 that I've found.

1. There's a new convex corner on the exterior mirror
2. The E85 badge is now one line rather than two

5point4, you got my story right.
I guess I have no grounds to complain about my wait. I'm getting my '11 for the same price I negotiated on the '10 I ordered. That, in addition to the fact that I ordered a SCrew with a 6.5' box. If you order an unusual combo, you wait. It's kinda like asking for no pickles on your Big Mac--step to the side sir, it'll be a while.
