Stopped in Needles, CA for expensive gas and a chance to experience 123 degrees and a 20mph wind.
Luckily was a dry heat.

Your truck would look great with the area in between the front and rear door windows painted or vinyled gloss black. Makes it appear like a 1-piece window

bought one of these today for 30 bux. was about to order, then i realized 4 Wheel Parts is a dealer, and for ****s and giggles i called my local one to see if they had any, didn't think they would. sure enough they had some in stock so i went and got it, probably gonna put it on tonight.

there's a thread on it here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l...apparently they have really good reviews from people that have had it installed for 2+ years with no issues. just need 1, not 1 per side. excited to go install mine later and see how well it works. my dually on 35s, not even lifted in the back, is hard enough to let the gate down 1 handed by myself, and the worst part is i'm only 28 years old so im fairly young, but i've had 2 neck surgeries, my neck still hurts as well as other nerve pain, and as a result i haven't worked out since late 2013, so i'm incredibly out of shape. so putting the tailgate down sometimes knocks the wind out of me just from that alone!!! the heat (florida...100+ sometimes here now in the summer) plays a part too, it just wears you out. so i'm all for mods like these that make things function easier for my personal situation.
check them out, even if i was in shape and everything and my truck was lower, still, everyone knows it's a task walking to your bed with your hands full, usually something heavy, and trying to open the gate and let it down with 1 hand. either it slams, or you drop stuff etc.

After a lengthy search I FINALLY found a spare wheel to match my 04' 18"ers so I mounted my 37" Cooper STT and guess what?......IT FITS UNDER THE TRUCK!!!! That's right, a 37" tire will fit in the space where your spare tire is now. I took out the shroud that is there from the factory and since I have done a muffler delete I didn't have to worry about the tail pipe.

Thanks to help from projectSHO89 & FordBlueHeart telling me where to find my fused "Customer Access wire" I was able to get my Gentex 177 rear view mirror with Auto Dimming, Compass & Temperature Display installed, working and the compass calibrated. My 06 is an XLT and doesn't have the dash display so I picked up a used Gentex off eBay.
Oh and who says you can't take it with you when you're dead - I'm sure as heck going to try. I already tried out the casket - it's NOT comfortable & I removed the latches after my friend slammed the lid on it locking me inside..

I think it's a long bed but hard to tell with the 37s right?! Haha
Edit- yea it's a long bed if you compare it to the short bed a few posts up. More space near the fuel door

this morning i felt like just hopping in the dually and going for a cruise since i got up early (am i the only one that ever just drives their truck just to drive, with no destination?) and i was bored so i stopped by the ford dealer. i really wish i could afford to buy a new/newish 6.7 for a daily. not to haul anything dirty in, keep the dually for that. either a single cab short bed or something like that, easy to drive/park for a daily driver (anythings easier than my CC long bed dually lol). so many nice platinum trucks at the dealer....cant wait for the 17's...i wanna see them in person and even drive one!
