Default 2018 F150 STX Daily Build

Hey yall!
I have never done one of these before, but I figured it would be fun to bounce ideas off one another.
I purchased my f150 STX for $31,700 plus taxes title and tags at the end of December.
My idea with this truck is to make this into a "comparable" 302a package for a lot less money... This is my 80 mile a day daily driver, so it wont be an over the top, 22x14, 6" lift kinda build.
I believe that the STX has great bones to start out with, with a great price tag along with it. So If you want to follow my build that would be sweet!!
Anyways, here is the first picture I took of her. Of course I got to test the 4x4 out the second day I had it.

Install wasnt bad! It took my ole lady and myself a full day to install. They turned out AMAZING. So much better than any stock leather seats I have been in. Also, I have not had the chance to wire them up yet, but i ordered some heated seats off Amazon and installed them. I am still trying to find a spot to put my switch at the moment. It is finally warming up in PA, but they will still be nice on the morning drive into work!

I am in the middle of doing all LEDs on the truck... Reverse lights, turn signals, headlights, fog lights. I will post pictures as I do them.
I did however find these bad boys for a steal on FB marketplace. $300
I had been looking everywhere for these style wheels.

this is how the truck looks to date, all caught up I believe... keyless entry is hopefully going in this weekend, along with a much needed bath...

Great grab on the wheels!!!!!!!

I'm still debating whether or not I want to sell my stockers once I put my aftermarket wheels on.

Stock wheels are already sold!
I forgot that I also put these lights in on my center console. Nice interior touch
