damn that is sexy!

 

Very nice, clean looks great.

 

Sweet looking truck man

 

Sweeeet! The whole package looks great! You will have to keep us posted on how the 305's treat the mileage on your EB and if your able to get the dealer to adjust the tire size!

 

Thanks guys...really appreciate all the comments!

I'll try and answer your question:

Yeah, there is noticable loss right on take off. With the smaller Goodyears, I could squel the tires fairly easily and truck had more immeditae response. Now the truck bogs down for just a sec until the turbos catch up and then it takes off. If you go up in tire/wheel size you'll probably notice some difference.

Thanks! Yes, I have tossing that around....can't make up my mind yet.

Thanks FX4life! I really wanted to keep this truck as much as a daily driver as possible while taking advantage of the EcoBoost, but also can't help myself as I still like a little attitude so was hoping I pulled it off. I am already seeing my mileage drop a little bit but will need more time to see by how much. And yeah, I do need to ask if I can calibrate the speedo.

 

I usually don't like the XLT chrome package grille but it goes great with everything on your truck!

 

Wow, that looks amazing. Nice work

 

Looks great DD!!!! Like the pics, a couple of those look like the belong in a Ford advertisement!

 

The new truck looks great Dawg. I will admit that I'm partial to your 5.4 with the rancho lift and addicts.......was one of my absolute favourite F150's out there.

How are you liking the ride withe the daystar 2.5 kit compared to the ranchos you had previously? I'm about to ditch my level and get a quicklift.

 

Another great looking truck!

 

Thanks dilpickle...actually, I am typically not a chrome fan either but when I saw the chrome package with the billet grille on the white XLT I thought it looked rather clean so wanted to play off that.

Thanks!

Thanks Gator! I am not much of a photographer so that's quite the compliment!

Thanks jj....yeah, I really didn't want a lifted truck again but my '09 FX4 was one of my favorites too so thanks for the compliment! The ride is okay but now that I am driving it more, I think the OEM shocks for the XLT are a bit overtaxed for the heavier Nittos as the ride is definitely rougher. I am thinking of getting a set of Bilsteins and hopefully smoother her back out.

Thanks again FordGuy!

 

As usual another great job! Congrat's on a beautiful truck. Great pics too!

 

Looks great! :thumbsup

 

Another beautiful truck DD! Did you buy that from Chalmers Ford in Albuquerque or Santa Fe? I actually flew out there to buy my truck from Chalmers Capitol Ford in Santa Fe last fall.

 

Looking awesome Dawg!!!!
