Yes, true. I like how the 20s look, not sure about functionality. They were great in the snow though.

Good luck with your search!

I put Dynapro's on my 14. Only had them a few months before I decided to get my 18, but I did get in a few snow storms in the meantime. I thought they were a great tire in the snow and a great tire all around.

I've been reading through this thread because I have an XLT coming soon. The device used by Ford to cool the seats is the same as you might find in those console beverage coolers. Or as previously mentioned a Peltier device. They work fine in small cooling applications. I had an '05 Lincoln LS, probably the best car Ford ever made, with cooled seats. Previously I would never get leather seats because, face it, they suck in summer. With the cooling they were great. At first they would get so cold quickly I had to turn it down to control it. After about three years they weren't as cold (still under warranty) I took the car in with a complaint. The fix was to replace the filter and charge me $45 for the service and hand me a box with a perfectly good filter in it. The result was no change. They cooled but didn't get cold. Just after the warranty ran out there was info circulating about the duct under the seat getting crushed blocking air flow. I looked and mine was crushed. Hopefully the execution has been improved since.

She has a nice all white look! 6" lift means you're committed. Past 3" you have to drop the differential which means cutting the cross member.

Thanks

We're now at 3 months and 7000km/4300 miles. I did a ton of driving in May kicking off camping season with some towing & hauling. Just had an oil change and 18S10 recall done. Added tow mirrors.

100% problem free. What a fantastic truck!

Did you install mirrors yourself? Cost? Tell me more.

Thanks

They're OEM trailer tow mirrors from a 2017. They took collectively about 15 minutes to install and that included a couple trips to the beer cooler. If you have an 8 pin connector for your mirror you will need the 22 pin conversion harnesses from Ebay. It's a stupid easy swap on these trucks, I did it half cut on a campsite with a socket set. Lol
