Picked her up today!

Went and picked up the new truck today, '15 F350 Xlt Srw with a few options. Ordered on April 28 and came in May 31. Cant thank Crystal enough for keeping me updated on the status of my truck, awesome service. Truck runs and rides sooooo much better then the '10 f250 I had, my dad was even amazing at how smooth it was. It only had 4 miles on it when I got it and I put almost 100 miles on it. My average is up to 12.6 already, doing mostly stop and go driving on the back roads and some "see what she got" runs with a couple of my buddies. I can say that the tranny shifts way better then the tranny that was in my '11 and when your parked on a hill and shift it out of park into gear it doesn't make the clunking sound. Leveling kit and 35's will be on by Tuesday along with the gooseneck hitch and airbags. I should have 500 miles on it shortly and will be throwing the skid loader on the flat bed and trying out the exhaust brake. Heres some pics

Sounds like his didn't have to cross the border and have Customs put a few hundred miles on it to make sure everything is kosher!

I don't know how I missed this; congrats! My 15 was built quickly as well, but the shipping of it is another story.
