Default New 2016 F350 platinum

I've had F150's my whole life. My latest was built here on the forum. I sold it last week, and picked up a brand new, bronze subdirectories metallic F350 platinum 4wd with pecan leather. First day home it got a complete 55 watt HID treatment( heads and fogs). Today it's going in for spray in bedliner. I'm also picking up Road Armor front and rear bumpers, a Royalty Core grille, and a Cervinis hood for it today. Those will be put in after paint matching. Here's a couple pics of her-

The ecoboost was great, but I just wanted something that would pull a little more. With all my 4 wheelers and side by side on a car hauler, it struggled a little on hills. So I figured it was time for an upgrade.

It's a beautiful truck, no more worries about towing, that's for certain. I also have the pecan interior in my platinum and enjoy the color combination.

Enjoy your new truck, it's the last of the best built trucks of an era now passing us bye!
