Another Convert

Just traded my 2008 Chevy Avalanche LTZ for a 2012 F150 Lariat. Love the new truck, beats the Chevy hands down. She is white with tan and brown interior, 5.0L and 3.73 gears. Plans are pretty basic for know. Already tinted the windows with 10% tint. Removed all the excess logos and getting ready to do the side and rear emblems in white. Going to wait and wear down the factory Goodyear SRA's and then put on a leveling kit, new rims and either 33s or 35s. This forum has given my a lot of ideas, just have to get momma to agree. I am not going to go crazy since she is my DD and pulls my 27' travel trailer in the mountains.

welcome! careful when adding the leveling kit and 35s, that will kill towing performance, especially in the mountains!
