I have had my Brilliant Silver Platinum for about 2 weeks and although the tailgate was my biggest hesitation during the purchase process (and the biggest reason I bought silver)- I actually like it now. Kind of nostalgic...

As far as the applique on the tailgate, that's part of the reason my Plat will be Brilliant Silver. It's the only color you can get the Plat in where the applique doesn't stand out against the vehicle, especially the tailgate handle area.
Exactly. I wish Ford would allow the applique' as a delete option.

Ebay is always good for pics. Here's a Silver 4x2 Platinum for sale, looks much better without that 4x4 sticker:

Well, I just got a sneak preview of the truck I ordered. Thank you.

To do list:
  1. Leveling kit
  2. Spray in bed liner
  3. New wheels and tires (although stock are forged, they're hideous.)
  4. Tinted front windows
  5. CAI

Other than that, can't wait. As far as the Ebay "Buy it now" pricing, already there. Discount it another $2000 and you're offering something different.

Talking

Brilliant Silver Platinum = Beautiful!

I wonder if anyone has ordered the Full Coverage Rubber Floor Mats with their truck like I did? Every one I see just has the usual carpeted floor mats, and from what I've seen they seem as poor as the ones that came with the 2004's. Curious to see what the full coverage mats look like. Also wonder if they'll still send me the tiny carpeted mats as well or just the rubber ones when my truck arrives.

Yes, although the rain sensing takes precedence over the interval you have selected.

i.e. If you have it set for 5 second interval, but rain covers too much of the windshield, the rain sensors will activate the wipers even though it hasn't been 5 seconds yet. If the rain is very light, it will wait for the interval you have set. Works very well.
