Back into a Ford

Well after a short stint straying to GMC, I am back into a 2014 Ford Ecoboost FX4. The GMC really was a nice truck, actually drove very car like. Smooth ride and very quiet inside. However, the electronics, interior room, lack of air vents for kids in back seat, amongst a few other annoyances of the truck, led me back to the good side. Found a really good deal and couldn't pass it up. First mod was to get rid of the Pirelli's, really not a fan of those tires in the snow. Cooper has the discoverer at3 that I really like but until recently they didn't have OWL and I am a OWL tire guy. Very happy to see they have now added the stock size in OWL for the F150 in these tires and so far I love them!

Anyway, here is a pick of the new ride! Nice to be back in a Ford. I could have waited for the 15's, but just not sold on them yet and knew I loved the current style.

Thanks for looking!

I'm in Cleveland so I know how you feel, my 07 had the pirellis and I hated them, dumped them after 30K. My 13 has them too, as soon as I wear them down, I'll dump them again for some nittos.

Thanks! Loving being back in the ecoboost too.

Anyone remember what the part numbers are for the door sill protectors? I added those to my last f150 and want to put them on the new one too.

Thanks.
