Finally left the land of a "stock" truck with the addition on 18x9 XD Monsters with BFG AT 285/65/18s. Thoughts?

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)

Looks very good. How did you get an F150 in the middle east? Is it an import?

The Ford dealer here sells them, but they are quite overpriced. For example, the SCREW 2011 Raptor here retails for about $75,500.

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.
