Modifications so far:
BAK Roll-X cover: ($799 from autoanything)
Swing Case tool box: (Undercover SC203D Swing Case Driver Side, Ford $191.98)
LED foglamps and rear plate lights: (Pair of 9145 9005 Projection Super Bright 30w 6000k White Fog DRL Light New 2014 $24.99) (2 of SYLVANIA 168/194/2825 LED Premium White Miniature Bulb $9.88 EA)
Rust-Oleum bed liner spray paint (to line rear wheel well/differential, $7.99)
Screen Protector: Lexerd - 2015 Ford F-150 Taurus TrueVue Crystal Clear Navigation Screen Protector $19)

On the way:
Window tint (probably 20% across the board)
Husky floor mats (I had the OEM rubber floor mats. Definately not going to cut it in the winter months for front seats): (Husky Liners 53341 X-act Contour Series Black Front Floor Liner $100).
Rough Country 2.5" level: (Rough Country - 554 - 2.5-inch Suspension Leveling Kit for Ford: F150 4WD/2WD $99)
MUD FLAPS: (WeatherTech 120044/110044 MudFlap No-Drill DigitalFit Fits 15 F-150 $64.99)

I will stick with original tires/wheels until the tires are worn down.

Only about 300 miles on it so far, but absolutely love the truck so far. Ruby Red looks great!! more pics will follow when I get the level and window tint.
So far so good. I'd have that same swing out box if I didn't opt for the bed extender.

No way you won't be amazed by Ruby Red. I still get a smile on my face and take a moment to admire her on a sunny day.

I agree with this as my Lariat is the same color. I love it!

I thought I may have made a mistake after ordering Ruby Red... Guard was up there on my list. But I liked it so much on the 2014 and never got one... so was a tough call.

Very good looking truck and of course you couldn't have chosen a better colour!

Default swing box


The top of the box will lock independently to prevent accessinside, but the hinges will just pop off if you do not install a padlock (orsomething) in the latch. They could take the whole box if not locked. However,if you padlock it, you now make it all that much more inconvenient to swing itout.
With a locking tonneau cover, it is not an issue.

So do you lose access to LED bedlight switch and the light on the left side? It appears both are behind the toolbox.

Default light access

Yes, the light is partially covered and you really can't push the button without swinging open the tool box a little. They do sell one for the passenger side.
