Christmas List

Based on being a good boy this year, I am expecting my new 350 to be delivered just before the holidays. Since I have been really good this year, I am thinking about pushing my luck and asking for stocking stuffers. Here is my list so far, what am I missing?:

3M Clearcoat film for the paint
Tonneau cover (leaning towards the BakFlip)
Line-X undercoating
Titan extended fuel tank
BFG AT KO with a winter rims
A case of Fluid Film for those areas the undercoating won't hit
Mud flaps
Husky liners all the way round
Leveling Kit
Firestone air bags
Fuzzy dice
Headlight upgrade (Silverstar or HID?)

Fluid Film is good stuff. I use it for everything. I would bet that it's better than the rust stuff that they use a Ziebart etc.

What is fluid film and how is it applied? Is this the same stuff that is in the little spray cans you use for lubricating etc.?

It's a long lasting, all purpose lubricant made from canola oil. Similar to WD40, but 100X better.

I use it for snow plows, hitch *****, any moving parts.

you can find it at most local John Deere dealers or I normally order mine from a plcae called mowpart.com.

You can get it by the can, gallon, bucket, etc.

I told my family to not to spend anything this year on presents for my birthday, Father's Day, my Anniversary and Veteran's Day and to spend it all on Christmas.

You think I should throw in fuzzy dice ?

I do a lot of plowing and the stuff can't be beat for keeping the plow components away from the road salt. It wears well.

I'm die hard. I picked this up for free a couple of weeks ago at the GIE Expo in Louisville.

Fluid Film & leveler

Nice shirt! You would think the old John Deere dealer would throw one in for the amount of Fluid Film I have vought over the years.

Epic -- thanks for the recommendation. Completely slipped my mind.

How could I have forgotten!

Especially since I spent the entire weekend replacing my Air Lift bags on my Wrangler (my drive way plow) and trying to get a frozen sway bar linkage arm unstuck.

Anyone got a suggestion? I tried heat, tie rod fork, hammering (limited due to space) and a large C clamp. I'm about at that point where I am going to pull the sway bar out and really start hammering.

Thought maybe you were a spy for my wife! This is my first Ford pickup in a while but I have been driving Ford company cars for my job for the past 20 years. Half the fun of owning a truck is outfitting it!

Just making the list and when funds permit, on the truck they go!
