Default Pics of my new Truck - Common Issues I read on here

I ordered my truck on January 3rd and it arrived to British Columbia Canada from the Dearborn plant on March 26. The first issue I heard was people having long waits or delays. I custom built mine and it arrived within 2 days of their estimation. Maybe I got lucky.

3.5L ecoboost twin turbo Power deployable running boards
Sunroof 20" tires
Box side steps and tailgate step Sync Navigation
Technology package Extended fuel tank
Leather
Max trailer tow package
Lariat Sports package

I love the 360 cameras and the lights on the mirrors. Also love the select shift transmission on the console shifter. The lane assist works perfectly...I know people said they have trouble with theirs but I have none. Also people say they have to turn it on everytime but mine is always on every time I get in unless I switch it off. I heard some on the new models dont have climate control on the 8" screen now. I have it. There was some issues with warping on the trim above the doors and no paint on the rear diff. Mine has no warping and the diff is painted black with zero rust. Leaky moon roofs were another worry but I have washed mine and been through a heavy rain and no drips. Heard the stereos were kinda weak or that but its better than my 2010 with nav system was. Being able to change the ambient lighting colors is great too and works flawless.

I added the Husky weatherbeater mats front and back as well as the Husky backseat storage. The pics might not do either justice but love both the upgrades.
I also added the vent visors to the the front and back windows. (I may have installed them a tad higher than they were supposed to be but like them regardless. As part of the purchase Ford did an after market box spray which is sweet as well as the 3M paint protection to all the leading edges and front lights.
I rate that about an 8 out of 10 but probably worth it in the long run.

Have had zero issues that seemed common on here but only time will tell. The integrated garage door system works but the range is a little shy. Not a big deal because I am in the garage or at the top of my driveway when I open it or close it. Always like to wait till it closes before I drive away anyways.

Enjoy the pics. I hope to take some night pics at some point.

Default more pics

Few more pics.
The one pic is the finished front of the Husky storage unit with the seats down.
It really is a nice finish and the pic doesn't do it justice.
I ordered the front mats and rear mat as well as the storage unit right from the Husky web site. No delays at all and great service.

Also want to note some future upgrades.

Levelling kit done by Ford
Shortened antenna (saw a good link on E-bay)
Touch screen Film (apparently eliminates the ugly finger prints)
Tonneau cover (thinking the Rolling locking type)

Looks Awesome!!! You'll be happy. One question though. That is the factory spray in liner? It doesn't have the Ford logo on the front wall. Something different for Canada builds?

All in all though Awesome truck!

It was done by Ford at the local dealer where I bought it. NOT a factory spray in liner. LINE-X is the name of it I do believe. The dealership where I go has a detail and other service building that does tinting, box liners, etc.

I leveled mine by taking the factory rear lift block out. Looks much better now!
