Next on my list hopefully: 5100s on the front. They do not currently rub, but only clear by about 3/4 of an inch. I worry out in the dunes I may have issues. I am also planning to paint the visible tailpipe black and add a black exhaust tip (painting a $20 stainless one versus paying $200 for a powder coated one)

I actually lucked out and ended up in a SCREW fleet XL. A construction company ordered 250 of them, then went belly up before they were able to collect them. Ford Qatar had them listed at $35,500 but were selling them for $25,000 as it was costing too much money to store them on a lot out of town. The SCREW XL comes with all the bells and whistles of an XLT inside, just has a crappy plain exterior, hence the PTM bumpers I had done before collecting the truck.
At that time (2009), the only F150s on the road were used 04-08s that people bought used from contractors at the US Base. Now they are hugely popular here and I see 10-20 2009+ on the road per day, with at least 3 or 4 being Raptors.
