White platinum metallic paint, pecan interior and almost everything on the order sheet. Dealer did a four state search and there were no vehicles in stock or even ordered the way mine was. That's why the wait.

Congrats, good to see a familiar name from the 6.0 forums. I've had my truck all of 2 weeks and I have just been soaking it in. I should have done it forever ago.

I love my Platinum too! That beings said, we have some 6.0s at work and I will say that's a fun engine to drive when it runs well.

Congrats on ordering, 69cj! I'll provide you with weekly updates on your truck's status. To make that happen, send me a PM with your order number and dealership name/location. Leave the rest to me.
