Well, it was time for an upgrade. I'll miss Black Betty:









But I am proud to welcome my yet un-named new addition to the family:









She is a 2010 King Ranch Super Crew with a 6.5" bed, and a ton of extras.

Sync Basic (no nav)
Sony Premium Sound System w/ Subwoofer
Dual Climate Control
Heated and Cooled Front Captains Chairs
Heated Rear Bench
Integrated Tail Gate Step
Bed-Side Steps
Soft Tonneue
Drop-in Bed Liner
Towing Upgrade Kit
Trailer Sway Control
Trailer Light Hookups


List goes on. I'm pretty sure the person who bought this (I'm the 2nd owner) custom ordered it and ticked every box except for the navigation system.

I absolutely love this truck. Still need to detail the interior, but I'm already done detailing the exterior. The exterior was:

Clay Barred
Polished
Waxed
Plastic Trim and Vinyl Treated w/ Meguiers


Next weekend I'll get after the interior with some serious leather treatment for all the leather parts, plenty of shining and protecting of the plastics and vinyls, and a nice shampoo for the carpets to bring them back to life (even though they are already in really good condition). Next pay check I'm hoping to put in some Weather Tec floor mats front and rear to keep everything nice and tidy.

Not sure I'll be doing anything to the suspension or the exterior (tight on money at the moment). But I'd love to at least convert her over to HID headlights like Black Betty had and install some HID fog lights.

If I ever have the money I'll be doing a 2" lift in the front with a 3" block out back with some new rims and 35x12.5r18 tires. (yes, r18, I like the look of the smaller rims with the bigger tires).

For anyone wondering, she came with just over 64,000 miles, and I paid around $26,500 for her.

Congrats man. Nice to see you up here now.
Can't believe it's been a year and 8 months since I sold my 2005. Feels like a month ago.

Thanks man.

I'm trying to figure out the best first mod I should do around $50. Been digging through the $50 mods thread without much luck.

Maybe some of you can chime in?

I feel bad for my friends without them now - every time I open their tailgates I let them slam down without thinking and they all scream.

Man, I already had that in my cart ready to order and thought maybe there was something I was missing that would be better. Guess not, DONE.

Beautiful new truck. Would love to upgrade to those wheels for mine or the 18's chrome, but realy like those. Maybe someday.

Did you try to see if the navigation works (inserting an SD card), or it's a definite, that it doesn't have it?
I'm just surprised a King Ranch doesn't have navigation.
Even if it was a special order.
