2019 Lariat FX4 (well, it started that way)
balls of steel taking it in water that deep without a snorkel.
It's thankfully not a problem (but I would try to avoid it in the future anyway) because if you look under the hood, the air intake hose is actually way up at the top near the hood so if you keep it below that point and enter the water slowly so the water doesn't create a bow wave and come over the hood, you're all good.

Received my dash carpet today from coverking. It’s a good fit but I don’t like the cover over the Ranger lettering. Oh well, I’ll roll with it for the time being.

The other day, I got my husky liners for the front, which I love. Great product. Need to get some for the rear as well.

Ugh, I ordered one and still waiting. I didn't realize it had that. Don't like. Might have to cut off and see if my wife can sew a edge.

8+hrs yesterday and today - did a ceramic coating on Maggie.
Wash, clay, polish, IPA wipe, then ceramic. This was my first time doing ceramic and hopefully Its on there - used all of a 30ml bottle.
It sure seemed like I should have been putting it on heavier but maybe less is better (?). I did a section at a time and waited 4 minutes to wipe (60 degrees in the garage) - when wiping there was initially quite a drag on the microfiber and after a few wipes the drag went away.....hope this is/was right. Guess I’ll know more when I wet it down in a couple days.

Sounds right.
Good effort. Lot of work!

Installed Dura Dressing on tires yesterday. Took an hour or so due to the process. Now just got to see if it lasts like the manufacturer says it does. Much nicer than Armorall and such which only lasts a few days.

Yea, Ford did a good job keeping the air intake high up.

Sprayed my bed liner with UPOL Raptor Liner. Was originally planning on going with Line-X, but had some time and decided to undertake this project myself instead. Really happy with the result. As always, prep is key and the most time consuming.

Also installed the DeeZee Tailgate Damper. Painted the hardware gloss black and sanded off the branding for a more OEM look.

Does anyone know what the side bed plugs are called/part number? I seem to have misplaced one somehow :facepalm:

Installed Extand Xceed hard folding tonneau cover. Install wasn't too bad and I think it looks great on the truck. There were a lot of metal chips all over the cover. Tried to blow them off with compressed air, but that only got about 1/2 of them. Went through a touchless car wash which cleared the chips off, but showed several leaks. Water was very high pressure, will see what happens with normal rain.

Installed Ford bed mat and swing out tool box that I got with reward points.

Factory spray in bed liner makes everything to do with fasteners in the bed a PITA. Have to clear it out of threads for bracket attachment. Had to remove 2 tie downs, which of course were sprayed over. Spent more time picking at bed liner than anything else!
