I got a pair as well. Ordered the adapter yesterday, but I'll have to wait a couple of days while its fabricated. The lights will be here before the adapter but at least I get to admire them!

I'm glad to be back to an American made truck. There are so many options and toys for these things it's unreal!

70% tint on the windshield? you would be wise to put any extra money you have into a fund to pay your legal counsel when you hit some kid in a crosswalk at dusk because you didnt see him. you can always blame it on the headlights but im sure the ilegal tint will come up at trial.

Car and truck Forums are wallet draining. I've been on F250 and vette forum's for years and I have spent tens of thousands of dollars on upgrades, mods, accessories.

My F150 will be no different. Already spent $1200.00 and I won't get my F150 until February.

I'll probably have $3-$4K of accessory basics ready and waiting to install on the day of delivery. Then I start modding...

Where did you order the adaptor from? I have been waiting two weeks for mine.

Isn't it great that there is so much disposable income for so many goodies during such economically strapped times? I wonder what it would be like if there wasn’t a recession.

I hear ya on that!!.wallet draining...
Ive never left a vehicle stock since the first day I bought my 1972 GMC 1/2ton, I was 15 and its always been one Mod after another....Now in my 50's and owned over 50 Vehicles always 3-4 at a time. My dad always shook his head at me, can't you leave anything alone...lol....but its funny by the time he was 60 he was adding stuff to his vehicles, and they were his work trucks. We owned our own companies with Heavy Equipment Graders and Dozers...and we had Gravel trucks till we learned they were just a money pit....... anyway Im already at 12K into my New 2012 and Ive only had it since Aug....

Look forward to seeing your Mods

Cheers!

Well, I just had Bushwacker fenders installed. Truck almost looks like a Raptor now.
