Picked this up in Oregon 2 weeks ago, got it all washed for the first time since getting it home before it gets a BDS 2" leveling kit and new wheels and tires.

You will like how much of a difference just the 2” BDS kit makes. Huge difference on mine.

Your truck is what made me look into (and eventually buy) that kit, I’m looking forward to it!

Here's mine, picked up a couple of weeks ago, XLT FX4 w/Sport Package. I'll be using it mostly for commuting about 30 miles roundtrip each day, towing a car trailer a few times out of the year, and some offroad/camping trips, near and far. For proper offroading, I'm considering springing for Ford's Performance suspension upgrade, Shrockworks sliders. and some tires down the road, likely 265/70/17s, not so big that I'd have to make modifications underneath.

I've added a Ford impact bedmat and hard folding cover, and both of these work very well. I've already used it to tow my 3,500-lb. car trailer 600 miles two weekends ago, and the rig performed flawlessly - the torque from the turbo-four was awesome, as was Trailer Mode.

So far, I LOVE the truck!

Nice! What's the size and offset of those wheels? Also, any rubbing with those chunky tires?

I joined the Lightning Blue club last week. I’ll get better daylight pics after it stops raining and I can wash the truck.
