Did pretty good on the buy too I thought. Stickered for $44k and change and I got it for 33k plus tax and title after the rebates and the Z plan. I was REALLY eyeing the FX4 packages, drove a few and loved it but in the end, didn't want to spend $45k when the $33k one will do the same basic job.

Plus gives me more of a blank canvas to start with. :-)

Despite popular opinion, you Sir, have good taste then.

Hard to say really since the aftermarket is fairly limited right now for the Ecoboost F150. People are hitting 365 ish right now and I'd be happy with 400 to the wheels once done. Not sure if that is achievable yet but in time, it will be! :-)

Im going to the local track next fri to get some bone stock runs in for a baseline and also going to get a few dyno pulls done in a week or two to get some base numbers. Then go from there..

Got some tan Weathertech mats on order now as Im not a fan of the huge thick rubber upgraded floor mats that came with the truck, and talking to Moody Blue about some custom overlays done up.

Still figuring out which rims I want for it, def gonna go with 20's to fill in the wheel base a little bit better, have to be black and simple clean lines... Considering the KMC 651 Sliders...Sent a pic of the truck and those rims over to my sister in law who is pretty good at Photoshop to get an idea of what they would look like on the ride and Ill post it up once I get it back from her to see what you guys think. But Ill prob have to wait a month or so for the rims/tires and let the mods money account refill after the tint/clear bra/led light tailgate strip getting done this week. But I want it all done NOW! lol

Got a quick chop done with those rims. Stockers, then with the 20's and also experimented with two blue pinstripes just for kicks. Whatcha think?
