Hello,
I just picked up a ‘20 XLT CC short bed 4x4.
35k miles & leveled with 285/65-18 tires, and Rough Country fender flares I believe.
Sweet little truck. Nice power out of the 2.3.
It will be a daily driver, occasional trail truck with some adventuring thrown in.
And yes some upgrades.
Looking to learn and share here - looks like a knowledgeable community.
Cheers!

We will spend your money for you, by the way does it have a tailgate damper?

Thanks lol. I have got carried away before.
The wide bodies are crazy cool, but I will not go anywhere near…
This pickup leveled is quite nice, although with spacers. I would like coil overs and 1” more height front and rear. …But this truck even rides nice…
I have a bumper in mind which I did order.
It will have minimal added lighting but I hope to keep it to a desert/trail wannabe, and take care of it! (Getting wiser?!? :crackup:)

Oh and the tailgater damper. :LOL:
Forscan sounds like an area to study up too…

I know what you mean about the cost as I've never bought one or been a believer in them. Between the transmission issues and HVAC heater box either one would pay for itself and then some. Like any insurance it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Another thing to keep in mind is if you sell your truck they will give you the pro-rated amount back. BTW, I did buy a 10/100 for my Tremor.

I will look into the Granger Ford extended warranty options.
Thanks for the heads up gents!

I should have a bumper on it hopefully by the end of January…
And maybe the RC TAILGATE DAMPER. :crackup:
