Default SlickRicks 2016 Magnetic XLT FX4 Slow Build

I bought this truck new in June of 2016, had a lot going on at the time (also finishing school) so there wasn't much time or money for mods. Got settled down in the past year and have slowly started to mod the truck. By no means has this been a fast process. I have learned a lot from everyone on this forum, and thanks to you all. A lot easier to purchase something with the peace of mind it's going to work/fit! I'll try and keep this updated as I keep making mods to the truck.

Couldn't be happier with the truck (was fortunate to build it), the only thing that I wish was different would be to have a column shifter with bench seat instead of the floor shifter.

Current
29,000 miles


1st Day June of 2016

Nice looking truck Rick! Sometimes the slow builds are best because they give you more time to research what you want to do. I’ll be following!

Thanks Mike! Yes sir, I plan on keeping this truck for a long time so everything will be well thought out.
