Default FX4, just got my 6" lift and 22" Fuel Rampage 22x12's on 35" Trail Grapplers.

I've been truck shopping for over a year. Couldn't justify spending the money on a new one, but found a super clean 2013 Race Red FX4 and couldn't pass it up. Just got it back from the shop and love it! Big Country 6 inch lift and Fuel Rampage 22x12 rims with 35 inch Trail Grapplers. We had to cut into the Bushwhacker fender flares a little bit, but it all clears now. Funny thing is I used to think my H3 was fairly big......you can barely even see the roof racks of the H3 sitting on the other side of the truck. LOL. H3 looks like a little kids toy sitting next to the F150 now.

Hard to believe there is an H3 on 33" tires sitting on the other side of the truck! This FX4 is a BEAST next to the Hummer.

Nice looking rig. That tire/wheel combo looks great on the Race Red! What other plans do you have for it?

Not sure yet. It's already got a hard bed cover, the painted flares, automatic steps, fake Raptor grill, tint. Not sure what else there is to do. Maybe upgrade the sound system and get an air intake system. (Oh yeah, it's already got a Banks exhaust on it to.) The guy that owned it before me did everything up right, just the way I would have done it thus far.

5.0 Coyote?? Skip the cold air kit, it's built into the truck. Have you thought about a tune?

It's an Ecoboost
I was big into 03 Cobras for a long time and then work and life got me out of the car / vehicle scene for a while (own my own business, work about 80 hours a week) Thus, not up on what all can be done with these trucks mod wise.

You can turn the 3.5EB into a real monster with a tune. You can also add a throttle enhancer to wake it up a little. I went with a Pedal Commander and am super happy with it. Once I installed my tune though, I had to tone down the setting on the PC. It became a little "twitchy" for my liking.
Spend some time searching around the forum. You can get all sorts of great ideas here.

I thought about that AFTER I had the lift kit and wheels on order. But, did some measuring and checking and found that it would fit. Luckily I have 8' garage doors and it clears fine. (We just had this house built and our old house had 7' doors, it would not have fit there.)
