Good looking truck. I as well traded in my 01 chevy 4x4 for a 2012 ford 2wd. After having it for 9mons. had to trade in for 2013 4x4 STX. Glad I made the switch and sure you will be to. JP68

Installed mcgaughy 2" shackles i got from a member today.

No vibes.


Have some sundown e8's on the way along with a ported box that i also got off a member. Just have to get a couple amps, components, and a PAC to complete my audio setup as that is next on the to do list. Stickers and running boards will be removed next time i get some time to wash it.
If anyone is interested in the boards, PM me.

I traded a gmc for my new ford too. 2008 z71 extended cab with 60k miles or so and it was showing signs (or making noises rather) of lifter issues. Don't miss it a bit, but I think the intoxicating aroma of the new truck smell may be affecting my brain, causing euphoria. When my son first got in the new ford (he's 7), he asked what that smell was. He said I'd have to get an air freshener. I told him I paid a lot of money for that smell, and after it wears off, he probably won't smell it again until he's old enough to drive lol.

What are you going to do with the running boards? I'm not a huge fan of them either, but mine has none and is 4wd. I'm 6'2 and have to sort of jump out when I exit. The kids need parachutes. I might be interested if you intend to sell them.

Sweet truck, I hope you enjoy it as well as I'm enjoying mine right now.
