Default Just bought my first superduty

i just wanted to share my ride since it’s been my dream to own one since 99. I traded my 2014 f150 for this 2016 f250 used but it could not have been anything I would change if I built one to what I wanted especially the color. The ride is not near as nice as the f150 but it feels like so much more truck though. Debating what to do for my first mod, either a small lift or weight reduction.

Thanks man. I towed my bay boat today for the first time. Very different feel than the f150 ecoboost.

Nice truck! The only drawback to the weight reduction is the diesel smell. Lowering your tire pressures when you're not towing will help a lot with the ride. I think I keep mine around 55psi or so.

I think I will lower the tire pressure tomorrow. I am running 75 so that’s probably my issue with rough ride. I’m not expecting type ride quality but it’s a tad rough even for a hd truck so that has to be a big factor

Holy crap that's high. It's hard to tell, but it doesn't look like you have the snow plow prep package. If you don't, your truck should ride just like mine when you get it dialed in. Mine rides fantastic, it's our road trip long hauler vehicle.

Do the weight reduction with Tyrant tunes and don’t look back
