Are these on constantly or do they turn on when you turn your headlights on or are they being used as a brake light?

Without going through 425 pages, last week I was just briefly scrolling through various pages and I came across a thread that somebody put some kind of insulation tubing over their air-conditioning line in the engine compartment to help the air conditioner in the truck blow a little cooler anybody have a link to this thread?

I have the same issue where it just doesn't seem cold enough. Adding the insulation seems like a good idea but it's only 2-4* cooler? Now I know that was with temps over 100*. Has anyone tried this yet for temps in 80's or 90's? Wonder what the results would be?

Does this count? The S/H was free.

Added a third EcoBoost emblem to the tailgate. $25
Replaced stock silver 4x4 decals with black decals. $20

I accidentally ordered "4x4 Off Road" decals instead of the regular "4x4" decals so I used the letters from the "Off Road" to put "Ford" on the hood. Not really sure if I'll keep that or not, but since I had them, I thought I'd see how it looked... FREE (with purchase of wrong decals )

Killer! Looks stock...may steal that one.

On only with headlights in on position.
