But seriously Bud, your truck is absolutely beautiful. First pics I have seen that make this color look almost as good on a screen as do in real life

Keep posting your mods. This will give me more ideas

Do you notice the falkens effecting your gas mileage much from what you were getting with the stock tires? I have those same tires but I put them on aftermarket 18"s and I think they killed my gas mileage lol

Love em. I tried a set on a lifted Dakota a while back cuz I wanted to save some $$ but ended up liking them better than any tire I've ever had. They aren't super aggressive like trail grapplers but they're quiet, great ride and they're cheaper

I think it's probably just the size of the tire that kills the gas mileage. But I'm no pro at this. I'll get an avg mpg over the next week and see what the difference is. I have 5000 miles on, and avg mpg since day 1 is 16.8 mpg with 5.0L

I was wondering what one could do instead of the HD Audio, which isn't even available on the XLT.

The Ruby Red looks great but I also like the Flame Blue.

Audiocontrol LC7i takes the signal from the sync head unit and cleans it up (take the 4 sets of speaker wire outputs from the head unit). Then the cleaned up signal is sent to the amp and out to the speakers. You can also add a separate sub amp and subs as Audiocontrol also processes bass signal specifically for this application
