For removing those stickers you will not do any damage at all! Just take a hair dryer and heat them up and they will peel right off. I wouldn't pay a shop $65 per sticker to remove it an put a new one on.

^Thanks Watson. I did not realize it was that easy.
To everyone:
I know I owe you guys some more pictures, and hopefully I can have some presentable ones shortly it rained, truck got dirty - and i want to take them somewhere cooler than in my driveway - LOL (more excuses available upon request
) soon I promise.
Fueled her up for the first time this morning. As it turns out, the local pumps these days stop at $90. Driving a car for so long, I forgot they did this. *shrugs*
Anywho... the truck averaged 10.8mpg for its first tank. Not great, but not bad (I know how I drove it). My goal is to log every tank (or as close to every tank I can)... I think it will be interesting to see if mileage improves over the next few fill-ups and by how much.

Im sure the truck will get better mpgs as it loosens up a bit.
I have an excuse you can use. Ahem, you were gonna take pics of the truck, but the camera ghost decided to take the camera and it hasnt returned it yet. There ya go.

I thought it defaulted to that. The other forum I belong to I think the sig is on by default.
There you go, displaying my whopping 10.8mpg LOL

Yeah, several other forums I am on default to sig on, so I'm not sure why this one isn't. I don't display mine...it's 12.0 over 12k+ miles in my Super Duty. Of course, 90% of that is either towing, or around-town driving.

I honestly dont think I am liking the polished nFab bars. I think i am going to have them Line-Xed when the truck goes in for that. I might leave the step pad polished SS but the rest of it I think I want blacked out... Its just too much chrome.
