Hey guys and gals. I've been away for a couple of years; I've been pretty busy, working, getting married, buying a house, selling a house, moving from IA to MN, buying a house, you name it, lol.

I recently traded in my 2013 STX on a 2016 XLT, and I thought I'd stop on by and start hanging out a bit again.

Recent purchase: 2016 F-150 SuperCrew, Lithium Gray, Sport, 4x4 502a equip.

Congrats on everything, but the sidewalls.

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the club! Very clean looking truck you've there. Do you have any mod plans for it this year?

What's wrong with the sidewalls? The white lettering being out?

Not my preference if I'm having tires installed, but not worth it to me to have them de-mounted and flipped around.

Nothing major planned so far. The wife and I just bought a new house, so all of our "spare" money is going there.

I'll probably do a few small things here and there. I'm about to order the Apple CarPlay compatible USB hub, but that's all that's really on the radar for now.

I used to always replace the intake as one of the first things on a new vehicle, but anymore, the stock ones are pretty decent on modern vehicles, and you don't see much for gains, especially without tuning. Next step on a truck for me in the past would have been to replace the exhaust for better sound, but not really worth it on the EB in my opinion. Maybe if I was looking to punch the power up a bit, I'd do an intake, exhaust, and tune, but I'm pretty happy with it in stock form so far.
