I guess speaking of that, has anyone heard when dealers are expecting to get the first 2015 F150's delivered up here in canuck-land?

 

talked to a dealer last weekend and they say Sept. at the earliest but more like Oct.

 

How about the 2015 6.7L?

 

Is it spring yet or summer? Sorry guys. I think it's winter again.

 

I don't know, it might be snowing, but around here, it's not sticking to the road, I think that's spring.

 

Had some rain here yesterday. Of course that equates to snow in the hills. River is starting to rise with the melt.

 

Yeah, even with the occasional snow or is easy to tell it's not actually winter because it melts off during the day again.

 

It was nice enough here in BC to bring a couple loads of topsoil home.

 

I was up in Grande Prairie yesterday, looked like spring there, nice and warm. Today it's raining in Calgary, but that's good news IMO, washes away the dust, gets some moisture into the ground. Hope it rains all day.

Supposed to be picking up my new-to-me truck sunday. I am pretty impatient.

 

Picked up the truck!

Pick here:

 

Like the truck It looks a lot like mine except mine is an 08

 

Nice looking truck.

Going to be hot here this week. Heading to Chilliwack, you may or may not know where that is, to get some sod tomorrow.

 

The hotter the better, not?

 

Now I need a topper / Canopy. Any of you Alberta Guys have opinions?

I know there are several pickup truck accessory dealers in town, here's the list I have made and the brands they sell:
Raven (Leer)
Cap-it (Leer)
Auto Truck Depot (Arrow)
The Truck Outfitters (Raider)
Alberta Trailer in Innisfail (Range Rider)
Custom Truck Parts (ARE)



I'm looking for feedback about two things:
1) which canopies are built best, last best etc
2) where to get a good deal

I have had zero luck finding one on the used market in the colour I want, and since I'd have to get it painted anyway, it looks like new is my best option.

Come on truckers, what do you think?
Also, if anyone is selling a used one in silver that fits an F150 with the 5.5' bed, let me know!

 

Here is what my truck and trailer look like
