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.

Son in law put some 285x65x20 BFG KO2's (34.5x12) on his stock '12 F-250 and what a difference. No level required and no rubbing..they ride better then the stock tires. Great looking truck you have!

what did you change on it the shocks?

Great looking truck. No comparison in towing to a f150. Enjoy.

Finally got around to getting a few mods done. Had to get a winch since I got stuck and had nobody around to help. Also the reason I got some real tires under it . Installed a 6” superlift with bilstein shocks and put 36x15.50 Mickey Thompson mtz tires

Have you done the weight reduction yet? I did mine about 4 months ago (2016 F-250) and all can say is WOW. My fuel mileage went up a solid 2 mpg and I’d do it all over again. My truck had 46k miles at time of delete and now has 51k.

yep all I have left is my egr for next week to do. I’m running the Tyrant 200 hp tune and I stay reserved on the pedal. I average 13.5 city and 17 hwy hand calculated with the big tires
