You should search Craigslist or eBay for a set of 20" PVD takeoffs. I also live in MA, so to protect my 20" PVD wheels from the winter elements I purchased a brand new set of 20" sport wheels (tires, rims, & tpms) off Craigslist for $1,200 that had less then 10 miles on them. The dealership swaps the wheels out in the fall and spring for the cost of a tire rotation. The sport wheels also give the chrome package truck a different look during the winter months.

Have the 20" PVD wheels all cleaned and polished so that they can go back on the truck this Saturday morning at Rodman. Only put less than 2,500 miles on the sport wheel this winter.

Nice! Truck looks good! I've never seen it out around here though. Most in this area are black crew cabs.

I drool everyday I drive by all those trucks out front of Rodman. One day I will pickup a 2.7 Lariat from there, or maybe Jack Madden down the road. Who knows plenty of Ford dealerships around here. Did you buy from Rodman how was the experience there?

Thanks. Purchased the truck from Colonial Ford in Plymouth. Used Ford's website to search dealer inventory and this was the only supercab in New England equipped with all the options that I was looking for and was also in a color combo that I liked. It had sat on the dealership lot for 9 months because they were only offering a small discount ($4,000) on it. Was able to end up getting a great deal on it because it was their last leftover 2017 that I purchased in February of 2018.

Default Pleasantly Surprised by Ford

I took my 2017 Lariat with 34,000+ miles to the dealer yesterday to initiate a warranty claim on the pealing running boards and rims. This morning I got a call that Ford is going to replace all four rims and both running boards. I was a bit worried that they would deny the rims because I had replaced the stock GY with General Grabber ATX. However, all is good!

My 2016 Lariat did exactly the same.. chrome flaked off the running boards, and wheels... Ford replaced all... with 2k and 2 weeks, left on my warranty. I should be good now, for the next 3 years!
