31k is the max this 21 year old has to work with, unfortunately new was not an option for me!

I've have quite a few plans. Gonna put a 4.5" rancho lift with hostile blaze wheels. Corsa exhaust, kicker vss system (had this kit in my 09 and loved it) katzkin leather seats and probably end up upgrading mft sync 2 to sync 3 with Apple carplay!

I wouldn't worry about it. Your motor isnt direct injection and could idle for days without issues.

Thank you! I haven't either, I've only seen one other truck on this forum with the sport package and chrome wheels

I have the opposite problem. Bought a '16 with 70k. Engine hours read 57 idle 9.
70,000 / 57 = 1228 mph ??
Under what situation would the engine hours info be reset if ever?

I only spent 36k new for mine... The XL STX Sport Appearance FX4 isn't a huge step down from an XLT.
