So I got rid of the Drop-in bedliner today. A member [MENTION=116509]wmasmith[/MENTION], nice guy, came to Anderson and we took it off my truck and put in on his. Glad to be rid of that thing. Got a couple more bucks in my pocket now.

I was gonna put on the BedRug but the damn rain won't stop.... Maybe tomorrow. Instead on went the AFE Intake. Cool looking, cool sounding, but MAN!!!! That was a PITA to put on! No flexibility to the couplings made the clamps very hard to use. I needed 3 hands....

What I love about the ruby red is even when it's dirty it still looks better than any other color on the road.

On a tuned EB it actually sounds good. Fantastic turbo spool.

Do you get that weird "pop, pop" noise when you let off the gas like I had with my aFe? It drove me crazy!

I'll let you know. I'm about to leave for my exam. It'll be my first drive over a mile with the intake.

I'm liking the intake so far. It's not often that saying something "SUCKS" is a good thing!

No pictures but I got the shackles on, opted for 1" drop on the rear. Even just that 1" made a big difference getting the bike on and off.

Unfortunately there are quite a few paint issues with my truck. Many spots with a speck of dirt under the paint. Dealer tells me Ford will be totally repainting my truck after we get back from our trip to New Orleans... Bummer...
