If you haven't tried this, Give it a shot I think it's better, But maybe it's only noticeable on the Metallic paints, like blue jeans I saw a difference. The Chemical Guys stuff is also excellent.
I'm a little intimidated here. This is a picture of my sweet Mildred.. she is the younger and hotter 2016 Ford F-150 that replaced my beloved Beatrice, a 2012 F-150. Both Mildred and Beatrice have the 5.0 V8 with 4x4 and Supercrew.

And this is the most updated photo of Mildred sporting a new shell...
Mildred with a new shell.
Delightful Mildred is a 2016 XLT Supercrew 4x4 with 5.0 V8, 302A package, 6.5' bed, 3.55 locking axle, trailer tow package, 36-gallon extended range fuel tank, and center console. The shell has carpeting inside and I can't wait to take her camping.
Did they do that after you got yours? I liked the magnetic color, but that was almost identical to my wife's color. So that's why I ended up with the silver. Too many vehicles of the same color, and it starts looking like a business or a cult.
I was first. The neighbor to the North now has a 2016 Blue Jeans XLT SCrew work truck and the neighbor to the South just moved in and has a 2015 Blue Jean Scab XL.

I really like that truck a lot. The breakover angle and overall low nature of those trucks though always has me hesitant to go that route. Leaves me with either the mini bed, an extended cab, or jumping up to a super duty.
2015 KR FX4, with 4" suspension lift/leveling kit by Rough Country, Mastercraft MXT Courser tires ( 35 × 20 × 12.5 ) Flowmaster 40's dual exhaust system and G2 tri-fold hard cover by Bakflip.
All my lights are Max led strip lights or strobes which can be purchased at Autozone and Advanced Auto, the cubes are by Blazer. I use prewired harnesses with their own switch from O'Reilly Autoparts. The cubes have thier own switch as do the strobes and strip lights.
I removed the harness switch and used my own which you can see in the new pic's. I will be updating the design for the switches but still like the location. I also use spiral plastic tubing to cover/hide the wiring.

My previous 2012 Supercrew with 5.5' bed had decent breakover angle but I don't think I ever benefited from it. The new 2016 is really long but I don't climb rocks. All of my four wheeling was on snow in Big Bear or driving on mud in Rosarito, Mexico to get to the house. I don't think the 2017 Super Duty has better breakover angle by being so long.

I should clarify, I mean the ground clearance at set breakover angle. If I got a long F150, I feel like it would need at least a four inch lift to feel comfortable taking it into the woods. Just a personal thing though.
