the LT265's are fine on the highway. not
noisy at all. only have 50 miles on it so
we'll see how they are after some wear.
the LTs were also a bit pricy for the upgrade.

Hey WICKMAN,
Well I think we should've been on the same train but it's not at the dealer (called em this morning) and VOPC tells me now it's enroute from Fostoria "Mixing center" (Ohio I think) to Twin Oaks (Phili). Dealer said they would recieve the invoice 1st and they haven't yet. My ETA is the 27th which is what i've been told from day 1
Did yours take the same route?

Whiskey-
I'm not sure what route mine took. VOPC reported that it was put on the train on the 6th then at the ramp on the 11th, back on the train on the 11th, at the ramp on the 14th and it mysteriously appeared at the dealer late night on the 18th.
The dealer had no idea it was on his lot when my wife saw it on her way to work Tuesday morning. My eta was also 12/27 so I guess I just got lucky. I'm supposed to pick it up today and get my ARE Z Cap installed on Sat. morning. I'm just hoping the dealer can get my 10 spoke wheels from Ford that they neglected to install at the factory. Guess I got caught between the 10 spoke phaseout and the ORP addition.

Hey p226,
Thanks for your post .I think we got built on the same day . I was told the 4th then it looks like it might have been the 5th. Also Wickman got built then too.We should keep in touch. It'd be a great way to see if any anomalies (ooo, what a word I better check that one ) arise - ya know like "the new guy forgot about that bolt in the torque converter" or "Bobby forgot his glasses that day and was using rivets instead of Phillips head screws" Or I just hit 6000 miles and my tranny fell out. Might be good to know-LOL

Wickman,
Congrats on the new baby. I'm envious as hell ! I guess the "BIG GUY" wants me to remember what the kids are goin' thru waiting for Christmas... Did you end up with the "sawtblade" wheels??
With the way things are goin with my truck I probably got your 10 spokes on it. LOL
