Hi All,

Just wanted to stop in and say my greetings. New to the forum but a lifelong Ford driver since my first vehicle -> grandfather-father-me F-250 7.0 diesel handmedown.

I currently drive a 2011 F-150 F-150 Lariat with ecoboost. Loving the mpg upgrade.

I'm looking forward to getting to know people better here as well as learning from their expertise and experience, as this will be my first time moding/upgrading/working on a truck on my own. That being said, I'd love any and all advice anyone wants to provide. Below is a list of some of the things I'm wanting to do.

1. First and foremost (excluding the much needed wash!) is to fix the hanging front bumper. – left her in valet overnight in Dallas and this is how I got her back . Luckily, insurance came through with a "little" bit of help. But it's the second time I've been hit while not in the vehicle so I'm looking to put a replacement bumper on with more protection. Looking at Fab Fours or ADD.

2. Rear bumper matching the front replacement, whichever way I go.

3. Suspension lift (after 100k miles) - need to keep my warranty valid!
4. All terrain tires - I would love to hear opinions and reviews on all brands, including some of the other, less-known brands. – and if I should/need to replace the wheels with it as well?

5. Lighting - headlights, tails, accessory and leds

6. Tuner

This will definitely be a work in progress and I'll need to make some changes one at a time.
Also, for users in the Austin/San Antonio/Dallas/Houston areas, if y'all have distributors, providers or shops in your areas that have been good to you, let me know.

Glad to be part of the community! Y'all have a great day!
