Daveantonio92 '15 Lariat Sport 5.0 [White] Much to come
Hello Everyone,
Names Dave, @daveantonio92 on social media
I am 22 I recently bought this truck and coming from a dodge ram [which i'll post a picture of] I cant even compare the two. I am in love with the ford truck.
I got a 501A with nav, moonroof, 3.73 locking, tow package, and the 5.0 [yes I know the slower engine but it'll sound beautiful with an exhaust + I could always supercharge it aka give me 8-12 months. MSRP $53700
Plans-
-Paint Match Front Bumper and Side View Mirrors (Gloss White)
-6" Rough Country Lift Kit
-20x12 or 22x12 on 35's [Had 22x12 on ram and leaning towards 20x12 lack of tire on 22s was not fun]
-Bed Rug
-[2] 32" Light bars in Front Grille
-Neon Below truck in [white] Rock Lights
-Custom Headlights
These are in the order I plan to do them, Yes I actually do some light off-roading but if your gonna call it a mall crawler doesn't bother me either way
The Plans are in the order I plan to do them, Feel free to give feedback and if you think I should do anything else
+Also am posting a picture of a truck that mine will look almost identically to with the exception that he has 22x14 I wouldn't do that wide, and he doesn't have custom lights or led bars+
I already changed MFT screen, and don't rag on license plate I transferred it from my Twin Turbo 350z I will be getting a new one, Ideas wanted

So on the 4th day my transmission failed unfortunately, was in service for a few days ultimately was labeled a "Factory Error" they did not tighten transmission fluid line bracket down in correct position so it was any given time it was going to go. They tightened it down and replaced fluid and all though i'm now very leary as I am driving it. In total it seems okay. I did though open a case with ford because a truck with 320 miles should not leave me broke down on the road side.
You can see the fluid sprayed all over the underside of my truck
The attached image is actually of the part/bracket that was loose and id urge others to just check it. Although highly uncommon, only a few seconds to see it as its not hidden.
On a bright side the day of the breakdown I debadged the truck just a little heat and now "less is more"

Okay, so I was feeling adventurous last night aka bored.
I decided to start spraying my truck and it came out amazing! until i peeled painters tape off I let it dry to long. Long story short still came out not bad I will be re-doing it sunday with a little more time the amount of time it took to put tape down was about an hour & an hour of spraying.
Paint was perfect matching.... I used Duplicolor Oxford White, and Clear coat.
I will be sanding it using a better primer and taking tape off before last coat dries which is what I heard to do.

Pretty close on the color match but not perfect. You have ***** the size of watermelons spray painting a $54k truck in your driveway, for $200 more you could have had it professionally done. Either way I am green with envy of your '15.
