finally, she is clean

First time since i had it (2 months) I.ve been able to give it a good cleaning. Pictures don't show accurate color. It really has a nice metallic look to in person.

Now just waiting for the wheels/tires, XD's on back order. will post pics when on.

most likely unless i see a truck on the stock 20's and 33's that just wow's me which i'm not expecting.
tires i haven't decided, most likely an AT to get better tread life than MT's (this truck won't ever go offroad like my previous trucks). probably try a new tire this go around that i haven't had before. what ever i get will be load E for towing.

i still have plans to do that lip as well, make my mirror reflectors into blinkers, and a black low pro toolbox.

do you have plans for homelink? i did mine a few weeks back. definitely alot nicer than having 2 or 3 clickers on my visor.

thanks man, love how it looks clean. I usually dont like two tone, but your truck, its off the chart awesome. If I was 15 yrs younger, Id jack this one up, but i got that out of my system with my last truck. Hopefully it looks good with the new wheels/tires soon. It's so nice driving a stock truck now, drives more like a car.

you can see the buttons in the bottom visor

gives you 3 buttons to program your garage door, gate, or whatever it may be to open. cost about $30 to do.

fx4's for some reason don't come with them like lariats do.

Not having a garage to keep your truck in would suck.

Your telling me, I live in a college apartment complex with 12 buildings. Every morning I walk to my truck praying that there is no dents and my radio is still inside. I learned to always back in so that my grill guard will take any damage from the drunks.

same setup, but luckily no drunk college kids here. I already had my door open one rtime and the wind blew it into my neighbors mirror, put a small chip in door handle, had to touch it up. These doors are so much bigger than my 97 F250, plus my 97 was raised so i never worry about that issue.

check out the new license plate
