Not just broke

Broke with a new Truck

Hey guys. Just picked up this thing last night. kind of an impulse buy, but more of a Good timing on the salesman's behalf type thing. Its the ecoboost lariat model. and its got every feature anyone could need. Synce is awesome. With a sticker of 50.9 i walked out the door for 39.4 and 1.9 interest. and the dealer (capitol ford in Raleigh NC) is calling me back money because he thinks a different creditor is willing to do a better deal. (more money off the bottom line i think) Anyways, I'm happy. I friggin love this truck. Definitely want to do a few things to it. Maybe wake the engine up a little, and put some tires wheels and a leveling kit on it. (after these pirellis wear out that is) Im so glad to be out of my TBSS. my wife loved that thing, and it wasn't a terrible vehicle, but this thing is so quiet and smooth. She fell asleep on the way home and when she woke up, her mind had magically changed lol.

Anyways, If anyone fishes here, can you recommend any good rod holders? Im probably going to be getting the bed tent and air mattress, so they would need to be removable, or hitch mount. And if anyone knows anything I should be aware of immediately, I'm all ears. Anyways, Take it easy fellas.
