Default On the way...

Hello everyone! I've been lurking for a while, but finally decided to join. My first truck has been ordered and is on the way...2018 F150 XLT - Shadow Black 3.5. You guys have been sharing some awesome idea, tips and tricks.

I'll make sure to upload a few pics once it arrives and as I make additions.

Finally picked up the ride yesterday evening...ordered 12/30, received 2/28. Going to be a busy few days ahead:

Today: Adding
Stubby Antenna Stubby Antenna
,
Dee Zee Tailgate Assist Dee Zee Tailgate Assist
and
Built Right Seat Release Built Right Seat Release
Tomorrow: Rough Country Leveling Kit, Caliper Covers, Nitto Ridge Grapplers (33s). My tire shop will have the following 20x9 wheels for me to choose from - Fuel Contra, Fuel Sledge or Fuel Vandal. I originally had my head set on running the Havok H109 with chrome spike lugs, but I could not find them anywhere in the desired offset.

Next up is to schedule my leather and tint. My first impressions are:
1) The cloth seats are more comfortable than expected.
2) I actually like the look of the stock wheels more than I thought.
3) The ride is smoother than a baby's butt. I'm sure that will change with the new wheels and tires.

No performance mods planned at the moment. That may change though.
