Thanks guys, I sure like it! Had time to treat all the windows to Invisible Glass cleaned with 0000 steel wool, then Rain-X.Then used Meguiars ultimate compound followed by Collinite 845 on all the piano black plastics and the same on the roof. Had just enough time to claybar/compound/wax the hood. Got dark or I would have kept going. Last free weekend, so taking the pontoon to the lake for the day tomorrow. Almost forgot, found a pair of 921 Philips LED in my bulb bin and put them in the reverse sockets.

Are you effing kidding me? Are you on crank?
You have the energy of a 20-year-old. And, you are a detaling virtuoso!

LOL, I am feeling it! My knees and back are killing me. My 6 year old keeps me feeling young most the time, but when you take off 4 wheels/tires wire brush the rotors, paint them, wax the wheels, install them to torque specs and adjust pressures, then get carried away on paint/lighting, yeah, I had to pull myself away.......ate at 11 am then again tonight at 9pm.........drank tons of water. Can't wait to do a full interior detail and finish the claybar/compound/wax on the paint. Then all the other mods. This thing rides like a dream, so flat and smooth with no body roll through tight S curves. Reminds me of my 04 Focus, with A LOT more room!!

That's right! (sorry I never responded to the Focus post). I almost miss mine! Love my truck... and I had been wanting a late model F150 for the last five years anyway. Like you, I got lucky with the '16, the 5.0 and the 6-speed!.
I'm looking for a worthy photo of my ZX3. Will post whenever.

Not sure, lol. Its the middle trim level. Really only missing navigation and power folding 3rd row. Has BLIS, heated seats, 4 sunroofs (think its called a Vista roof), leather, heavy duty brake package, power mirrors. Plenty loaded for me.
