I go by the week not the day, but yeah. New 2200 PSI Power blaster with auxiliary foam thundercannon, @AzScorpion says they are the real deal when it comes to keeping a clean truck, lets see how it goes tomorrow.

And a RedTek 4 window express down module which Ford should have installed on the truck in the first place, the cheap bastards :mad::mad::mad:
Jim you're going to love it so much you'll be washing everything in sight.

You might also learn some tricks like I did. :shock:

Stock picture, because my apartment complex locked the package room, before I could get there. But, my NGK 6510's came in today, from Amazon.

One of the last pieces to the exterior puzzle arrived this morning. Went with a custom job from a great seller on Etsy to get rid of the only chrome and blue on the truck….always seemed so out of place to me.

I chose Magnetic for the housing and surround to match my flares, bumpers etc. Cactus gray with matte black lettering to match everything else on the truck

Gotta say, I’m really impressed with the quality of the paint job. Pretty excited and hope to install it this evening. If anyone is interested, I’ll also post a link to the company later….as they can do any combination of colors imaginable.

Nice! And how much did the custom color match cost?

Will do!

Turn around was like 38 days, so I don’t recall the exact price but I’ll check later this afternoon. Honestly though, it wasn’t a whole lot more than what everyone else is charging for the ones out there. As I recall it was about a $50 up charge, which I didn’t feel was unreasonable…..but don’t quote me on that.

Edit: just checked. The seller is OEMautoart.com. I paid $239, so roughly a $50 premium over most.

Your tires are cleaner than any part of my truck has been since I've owned it. I'm not exaggerating, it was dirtier than that when I picked it up from the dealer last April, and hasn't had a serious wash since.

Tecoom brand mud guards, will install this weekend.

Other than being a smidge short and causing my hands to break out in a rash... These feel good quality.

More rubber than plastic.
I have those on my truck.

I think you'll like them.

These things only drill into the plastic fender lip right? I'd feel uneasy drilling into a new truck I've only had for 4 days.
Very little drilling and only into plastic.

Most retainers are steel clips.

Woohoo, no truck yet but I got these in the mail!

oil-change.jpg


This is from someone here on the forum suggesting how to make oil filter changes easier. Just JB Weld the nut-thingie (official term) in place of the breakable clip/screws and easy peasy.

I'll search for the thread because they put links to these parts.

Edit: Here's the post with the eBay links for the nut-thingies and the knurled screws:
