Very nice PAW PAW. I am looking at getting rid of my 12 FX4 SCREW for a new Platinum. I found a silver 13 like yours but it has max tow and 6.5 bed. Basically exactly what I want. Do u mind me asking how much u got off the truck? If so feel free to pm me. Thanks PAW PAW.

Congratulations PawPaw. As we say in my neck of the woods, "That's slick as a whistle." You, and MawMaw are riding in style now my friend. Enjoy.


BTW, you just answered my question from another post.

At first I was skeptical of the steering wheel smooth insert, but now I like it - makes turning the wheel easier, but it can be hot on a summers day. Now your son will want a Platinum after he drives it.
Put about 200 miles on it so far and have to agree that the seat's are more comfortable then my old truck. Averaged 16.8 with combination of city and highway plus letting it idle for about 10 minutes. My oldest grandson who's 13 may end up with truck in a few year's.
