That sure wasn't very nice of the guy, I don't think I'd have been very congenial to the guy for that.
I didn't know it didn't come with the flexfuel thing, they must not be as proud of the Coyote as much as, ah,er, the other engines. LOL
The sport wheels are black aren't they?
Have any thoughts of an exhaust or tune for it?

That stinks...if price time and place are set, that's as good as sold, pending inspection only!
Maybe a blessing in disguise. Better maybe cheaper ones will pop up!

Sport wheels are just the 6 spoke silver color. As far as exhaust, just a muffler swap, Flowmaster 50 series Delta Flow or Borla XR1.

Wont tune for a while, but my warranty/finance guy told me who to use near me to keep the warranty intact. I got the 6 year, 125K B2B.

I hope, but if not, no hurry. Still want to do little things, floor mats, window tint, lowering shackles and I keep looking for an XLT seat to swap in.

My '16 is set up like that as well.

I like the second set, just enough non black to make them subtle, yet still noticeable. What size are ya thinking?

20x9, factory replacement size. They do have +15 offset, I was shooting for +18. I havent seen the top set on a truck, and the bottom set on the vehicle I saw it on looked "flowery". I am leaning toward the top set with chrome lugs.

WHAT??? SUMMERS IS THINKING ABOUT CHROME?!?! I THINK HELL JUST FROZE OVER!

I'm not personally a fan of the fake beadlock look though. I haven't found many black wheels without that though... Have you seen the KMC Slides? I've always loved them.

Gotta have "nickel plated" lugs on black wheels, lol. I don't think the top set resembles a beadlock pattern, but the bottom set does. I can get these super cheap....
