A Few Changes to the New Truck

I've had a very eventful last few days for the trucks. I wanted to get a few things taken care of before I move next week and got it all done these past two days.

2014:
Tint: 30% Ceramic tint, shop said it will meter near 26%.
Line-X: Just went with basic Line-X and had them leave holes for the bed extender, but dang it looks good.
Bed Extender: Went and bought pivot bolts from Ford and installed ($14). Much better for my wallet to reuse the 05's bed extender than buying a new 2009+ collapsable one from Ford...

2005:
Washed and ready to put up for sale. I've got it in the driveway and have been watching people stop/go in reverse to look at it a good bit today. Its entertaining.

Pictures because reading is overrated.

Line-X:

Bed Extender: Happy to have it back

That may need to happen after I start the new job then… Thanks for the heads up!

There is some cheap aftermarket OE style black tails being made now. I wont recommend them as quality should never be skipped on, but your truck is looking great, both!
