Apdl’s Family Hauler 2016 XLT
Code Name: Apollo
Budget friendly family truck that will go to the moon (~238K miles) and much more!
As some of you know its an old fleet truck used solely by a family member who is super particular about everything he owns.
Its a 2016 with 150,000 miles no towing or heavy hauling 5.0L XLT Crew 6.5’ bed 300A with sync 3 and the tow package with pro backup assist.
Good price but got hosed in taxes a bit since it was below market.
Mods/Additions:
TurXedo Low Pro Cover $150 Facebook Marketplace
2018 Lariat Chrome $150 Shipped from a member
Dee Zee Tailgate assist $21
Mpow 086 Upgraded Air Vent Car Phone Mount$9
Lariat Chrome Grill used $20
Wish List:
Stubby Antenna
Leveling Kit
Michelin Defender XLT or G015 @ 255/75/17 (once the current GYs run out)
Led Fog and driving lights
FX4 Skid Plates
Bed Mat (current one is for a DirtyMax
Finally had a chance to get it cleaned up today, it has a ton of road grime on it, automotive goo gone seems to work well. It also has looks of what looks like rust specks of rust that comes out with some serious elbow grease. Ill clay bar this spring hopefully that will take it out.

That Tgate assist is worth every cent. I had it on my last truck, and this one, and if I don't have the OEM one on the next, it'll have the DeeZee.
