I picked my truck up today. Platinum in Blue Jeans with a Retrax Pro tonneau, Line-X Pro, and 35% tinted front windows. The other truck is Rusty, as shown in the sig, and looks like the little brother.
Yes, it does. Rusty's not all that big, nor long, in comparison to the 2015. The new trucks are much more capable than our beloved 80's trucks. But, they tend to cost slightly more.
The yellow thing appears to be a piston to push the step out when you hit the release. At least, that's what it seems to do.
Excellent color choice. . And good looking truck, too. But that black rear bumper has to go! Looks like a cheap replacement from JC Whitney. Blue is a color that needs contrast with some bright work. Chrome that bumper and it will look ten times better.
Thanks, guys. I'm sure I'm gonna love it. But there are some things I'm not sure about yet. For instance, the lane-keeping system. The truck is wide enough that I'm frequently getting close to the edge of the lane, and I though I was feeling something "help" me steer. So I dug into the parameters and turned the assist to high. Sure enough, it is correcting me more often than I expected and more often than I like. Maybe I'll get used to the size and keep it centered up better, but I'm not sure.
Another is the navigation system. I'm sure I'm missing something, and I haven't read the manual yet, but it isn't obvious how to pan around on the map. Our last two vehicles had ***** that tilted and that let you both zoom and pan. But I've not found that yet on this one.
Thanks, older man. You'll understand this - I sorta expected the truck to come in on my day like you just celebrated. But Ford brought it in a month to the day early.
Yeah, I'm sure it was the wind. Or, playing will all the fancy gadgets? I adjusted the heated/cooled/massaging seats; the speed-controlled audio; the adaptive cruise control's following distance; the satellite radio to find the good stuff - the 60's; the gauges to get turbo boost showing; the gauges to get fuel economy; and so on. Would any of that bother keeping it in the lane?
I don't know what package, but I would be betting on platinum, he loves all the bells and whistles, that's why he bought a Navigator, Expeditions didn't have enough gee gaws for him.
