Finally! The Wait Is Over!
On Saturday I got my Screw Lariat 16 weeks after I ordered it in December. I found it on the lot before my dealer did. My dealer was very good to me as I bought it on X-plan and he made up for the extensive wait by locking me in to a 0.9% financing rate.
It is REALLY NICE! This truck just loves to GO! The ride is quite good, also. In fact, the two people(women) I have had in it since I got it both said, "Wow, this rides like a car, and you're so high up, this is great!" I do need to get some step bars though - even I have to make a running leap from a trampoline to get into the driver's seat, and I'm an athlete!
Regarding the radiator issue - I had them sign a "We Owe" form on it before I completed the paper work. I drove it off the lot Saturday morning and forgot to check underneath - EEEKS! They forgot my skidplates! So it looks like I have to pay them another visit. One other thing, awhile back there was a thread by some guy who said he was missing a plastic cover, under the hood, for a mess of wiring. I think I am missing the same thing. He had pictures and part numbers and everything. I looked for the thread twice and couldn't find it. Anybody remember?
Has anybody taken off the "4x4 Off-Road" stickers? I would like to but I am afraid that the clearcoat was possibly sprayed over them.(although it sure doesn't look like it) Does anybody have experience with this?
Other than those minor details, the Supercrew is everything I was looking for. I can't wait to put a few miles on it!
Az. Beige Lariat, 5.4L, 3.55 LS, ORP, Tow Package, Heated Leather Captains Chairs, Single CD, Moonroof, 17" aluminum wheels, Michelin LTX M/S tires(traded G'Year Wrangler RT/S)
