Pulled the Trigger 2015 F250 Platinum

Went back and fourth between a King Ranch(Wife's Choice she like the two tone) or a Platinum. Though I really liked the interior on the 2015 King Ranch over all I wanted the solid paint scheme. Pulled the trigger Friday on a Ruby Red 2015 F250 Platinum. So for I did a tire swap and tinted the windows. Monday morning gonna start pulling it apart. Will be putting bumpers, lights, and winch. Not sure what height of lift kit I will put. I am also undecided what type of AUX fuel tank I am gonna put, under bed or in bed.




At the Dealership




At home after tire swap







Tinted windows

Yes same tires size for now until I figure out what lift kit I will put. I dropped it off this morning so they can start putting the accessories on should get it back in two or three days.

You know you can order a solid color King Ranch this year right? It's the monochrome option. FYI.

Congrats.

IMO, two-tone on the KR is the only way. For monochrome, Platinum looks better.

I'm not big on the monochrome KR either, but it sure would have fit his description.

There's two things I'm not crazy about with the Platinum. The chrome door handles and the chrome PLATINUM on the bed. I'm coming around to the body colored bumpers. Other than that I love my Platinum. Enjoy your truck!

I did know about the monochrome KR. The dealership had one on the lot, but it was still two tone but with chrome bumpers instead. It came down to that I did not find a two tone KR that I just had to have. Wife really liked the white and caribou, black and caribou, and the bronze fire and caribou. I thought long and hard about the black and caribou. As far the painted bumpers I am not a fan. I thought about putting a set of chrome bumpers, decided to go back with Road Armor bumpers.

Is your interior Pecan? That's what I ordered with the tri-metallic platinum white ext. If so please post a pick of the int. I was torn between the ruby red and plat. white. Went the white just for ease of keeping it clean.
