So I put a deposit down on a '17 F250, CC, SRW, 6.7L, 4x4, 6 3/4' bed yesterday. I will be trading my 2011 F250(same setup). I had considered giving the Ram 2500 with the Cummins a try but could not find a compelling reason to switch(discount) and the aluminum body should hold up better in New England than a steel body truck.

My question regards the transfer of bed accessories to the new truck. I have a bed mat(Ford) and the bed extender(also Ford). I would think that if I intended to use the bed extender, I would have to find aluminum bolts to replace the existing steel ones on the bed extender or can someone tell me if the threaded inserts on the bed are steel?

Thanks in advance!

 

Can't help on the bed extender, but congrats on the new truck!

 

Congrats on the new truck, but why did you put down a deposit?

 

do not think bed extender will work

 

Because the truck is at another dealer in Mass...
