I have intentions on lifting, but won't be anytime soon. I want to do the ICON 7" with 24's and 37's or 38's. I have a few other things to buy before I spend $7k+ into lift and wheels. lol

I want to get the lights smoked and billet grill first. I'm still trying to decide if I want to paint the entire mirror or just the caps. If the grill looks like it's to much chrome after the billet then I'll paint it when I have the mirrors done.

Thanks for all the comments. The windows are getting tinted today. I'll be out of town for work until Friday. I hope to have pictures up this weekend. I like to stare at the people next to me so I went 5% with an 8" front strip just like my other truck.

Cool, I have had mine three years and still have not tinted the windows. Maybe I need to get on that.

Nice truck! Glad to see you went with one! Keep up on the maintenance! I am surprised you found a new 2010 still, they are all gone around here.

I've been reading up on the Diesel forums pretty often. I've learned that Oil and Filter needs to be changed every 5k mile and Fuel Filters changed every 10k miles, not 7500 and 15,000 miles like Ford recommands.

yeah it just depends, if your truck is running in regen(with DPF) then it dilutes the oil which is why they say to change it at 5k. 5k is a good interval IMO. I have changed my fuel filters between 5-10k just depends how i feel its running. this last time it was running odd that filter was filthy on the frame rail.

If you use the truck a lot it can get costly. I have a company truck so I'll only be using my SD as a weekend truck probably putting no more than 10k miles a year. My last truck was a little over 3yrs old with 20k miles.
