Thanks,

The ride quality is not bad at all. The ride is a bit stiffer but not harsh. Road noise is quiet, not silent, but not loud either. The biggest complaint is my mileage went down quite a bit. I haven't really checked it yet, but information center in the center of the cluster has shown 20.3 for the past 2 years. I have never reset that one and within a week it dropped to 20.2. That tells me there has been a significant decrease in mileage.

You know something - that STX pkg on the XL trucks sure makes them look sharp. It seems like a great value for the money spent. I'd love to see some interior shots of your truck.

Congrats on the new ride and best of luck!

Nice truck. I like your OEM wheels better than mine!

Thanks! I love them. Haven't towed with them yet, but they're nice to have with the longer bed (and I think make the truck look more proportional). There was a truck in Houston that checked all of my boxes, but didn't have the tow mirrors -- it was a deal breaker for me.

I have to whisper type this so none of the Super Duty owners hear me, but I feel like I'm driving an F250 with all of the comfort and MPG of an F150

Thanks. I love the package. Here's some interior shots. It loses a little in the photos cause the seats are black, but they look gray in the pics.

Absolutely!! That is why I ordered my '17 F150 with the tow mirrors. Going from my 2012 SD with those GREAT mirrors...makes it a simple choice for me.

These are MUST have...IMHO. LOL!!

Nice! The trailer mirrors look so much better in solid black rather than withe the chrome accent. The chrome puts an emphasis on an already large surface area. Does yours have power fold?
