ok time to clear a couple things up. i am the owner of this particular thread and i want to thank all of the platinum club members for the great support. this thread is creeping up on 1/2 a million views and thats just nuts to me. it shows that people really love these platinums.

now to the the couple of negative commentators out there. if you cant afford or dont want to pony up the cash for a platinum this is not the thread for you. we are proud of our trucks and we bought them because they are what we like. as for them being the same as an XLT well thats just not true. yes the start as basically the same truck but they have a lot of little changes that you only realize they have once you own one. so to keep it short keep your negativity to yourself. we dont want your opinion here.

so with that out of the way lets keep the beautiful Platinums coming. i love seeing all of the post and new members every week.

oh and my favorite feature on my Platinum is the wood on the steering wheel. that's one of those options you just can't in in the lower models or in the aftermarket.

Just a shameless update pic, since boating season is now in full force!

The AF is moving me back north to Omaha here shortly, so I had to 'downsize' back to a trailer boat again. We've been enjoying her for a few weekends now, and have a few more left before we leave the FL water for points north. That's gonna be a looooong tow!

Without further adieu, here's the rig:



13' Platinum Ecoboost 4x4 pulling the 14' Monterey 268SS. Bring forth the sun & water!
