Default Howdy from W. Phoenix!

New guy here from West Phoenix. A geriatric 26 yr old fresh out of the Army after 8 Yrs. Owned nothing but Fords with the exception of a JK Wrangler, which I slowly but surely destroyed (Over-estimated capabilities ).

My latest squeeze is a 2016 F-150 XL FX4 4x4. It came with a laundry list of mods as well as OEM options not typically included with the XL trim. Im guessing the guy built his dream truck and Momma said no.

Factory options that were custom ordered (I think):

Heavy Payload/Tow Package
Spray on Ford bedliner
Backup camera
Trailer backup Assist
Tailgate step and handle
Bluetooth
6.5"?? Factory LED display
On the fly locking rear differential

Aftermarket mods:

AMP research retractable steps
Rough Country 6" lift (Read bad things but seems to be tolerating moderate abuse)
Fuel Rims / Key Lock lugs
35"x12.5 LR-E 8 ply General Grabbers.

She is a beauty man! I absolutely love it!

Congrats on the new truck and thank you so much for your service.

Are you keeping it as is or planning on more mods?

Thanks everyone.

1aauto, thanks for your support!

I do plan a few mods but nothing major. The ride is very stiff while driving in the phoenix area deserts. I believe it has to do with the LR-E grabber srl's. They are 76 lbs each and the rims are 37 lbs. Plan on new shocks and the next set of tires being same type but LR-D.

I'm having issues trying to find if I in fact have the payliad/heavy tow pkg or not. Hopefully these pictures
Will answer that? Any help is appreciated.Thanks.
