All these regular cabs look great. Hope no one took offense to my question, I was honestly curious since you see SO many in ext/crew cab these days. I know when I bought mine, at a very large Ford Dealer, I dont recall seeing any reg. cab trucks on the lot.
Nice rides, we're all in this blue oval together!!

I purchased my RCSB because that’s all the space I really need. Two of us. If we need room for more we take the wife’s SUV. I daily mine to work. And don’t need any more cabin space. Don’t need any more creature comforts and if so. I’ll just add the exact bits and pieces I need rather than a whole package. Dealership tried for quite a bit of time to get into the STX model which added cabin space along with other stuff. But I don’t need it so I kept with the regular cab.
Great truck and it actually fits in my garage.
Will add add a spacer leveling kit black wheels and ~33” tires but want to use a bit of the tread on these first. All of them are a pretty cool blank canvas and folks on here really have some great looking trucks!
buy the one you need. Don’t much matter if it fits what I need or not.

I just ordered some bilstein 5100's for my 18 fx4. I plan on getting 18x9 Method NV's with the +18 offset (unless someone can talk me out of it). What tire size would work best with this wheel? I DO NOT want the tire to stick out past the fender and have that BRO look. I would like to have 33 inch tires.

It looks like the vast majority of leveled trucks on here are running the stock UCAs.... I'm planning on installing 5100s at the 2" setting. I'm not concerned with bad angles at that height necessarily, but don't want any binding/hitting of the strut if I can help it. I'm mostly city driving, but offroad once in a while for hunting, camping, etc. Nothing hardcore. Anyone having issues with the UCAs hitting the struts on a similar setup?

2" rough country level
For those of you who have installed the plastic spacer, was a spring compression tool required? The instructions say to insert the top of the strut first and then align the bottom of the control arm .
