I wish I could leave the steps off, but have 2 young kids and a short wife that require them. Didn't watn the painted ones that came with the FX4 cause I'm afraid rocks would tear those up and they would rust.
RangerRick, thanks so much for the photoshop, I really appreciate it, that's exactly what I was wanting to see.
I'll try to get some interior shots tonight and post them.
Thanks all for the comments, and for the photoshop. So far the truck is great, haven't really had a chance to test the 5.0 out yet, but the new message center is awesome.

My new 2011 FX4 Luxury pkg came in last night and got it picked up, pics aren't the best but so far I am impressed with the improvements:
If anyone is good with photoshop, wondering if they could take the step bars off the pic from my 2009 and paste on the 2011. I'm afraid the brushed aluminum might not mesh with the new truck, but want to see what it will look like. THanks in advance if anyone can help me out.

Thanks for the comments all! Really happy with the way the truck turned out, I was worried about the rims, but have to agree with those that have said pictures do not do these new rims justice.
Also, here is a pic with the step bar added, I'm unsure if I like it or not, but it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I wish I could line-x them or get a smoked clear coat on them, but I'm told because they are polished aluminum that nothing will stick to them.
Let me know your thoughts...

In that picture, with that light they look just a few shades lighter than the color of the wheels. I'm sure in full sun they will gleam, but I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Loved my 09, but I think the 11's might be even better. Not "oh my lord I have to have it now no matter what" better, but I definately see some improvements.

Combo of things, got an offer from the dealer on the trade that was very good, and there where about 1500 bucks worth of upgrades I wanted to do to my 2009, all of which were already take care of on the 2011's (Remote start, new grille, harley head's and tail's), so I figured might as well upgrade and apply that 1500 towards the new truck. Plus the new dash screen is very nice, and was interested in trying the new engine.
