Default Traded in my 12 for a 15

Loved the look of the new trucks and once i test drove one I had the itch. Seems around me dealers are looking for used vehicles so I was able to negotiate a good deal on my 2012 SCREW 3.5L XLT and I upgraded to a special order 15 SCREW Lariat w/501a package a guy backed out of before it was delivered.

Weird combo the guy put together with the 20inch wheels, 3.31 gears and the large tow mirrors but no max tow package. After a day or so with the mirrors I really love them tons of visibility and its hard to imagine going back to the smaller ones I had before.
Quick pic i snapped off my phone.

I haven't got my truck yet but I hope I dont regret not getting the tow mirrors(also no puddle lamps and I'm battling that in my head) I thought they were a little big when the truck isn't lifted? I'm sure I'll be happy with my baby mirrors lol

I test drove a 15 with the elephant ears and found them not as "intrusive" as the ones on the 13... still huge though!

enewee, nice truck! The EB is great on the 11-14, but it feels like a different beast altogether in the 15!
