When will it end?
Just bought my '16 F250 XLT yesterday and I have nearly burnt out my internet connection ordering extras.

So far, I have ordered:

Bed liner
Weathertech mat set
Nerf bars (these 4x4's sit high, no way my wife can climb in the truck)
Better shocks (looking for a little less jiggle while driving)
BakFlip (bought a used 2000 F250 that had one and really liked it)

Still looking at some Timbrens, but have not decided to pull the trigger on those yet.

I think that I am done. Or should I say that I hope that I am done.

I too thought I needed new shocks when I got my new 2016 F350 4x4 cc, 6.2 4.30 rearend but after a couple thousand miles, the springs settled in and the exhaust got less "tin can " sounding. If I did buy shocks, I hear go with Bilsteins

OK. You are all correct.

I have already ordered Weathertech mud flaps.

Have told my wife to take away my computer. Only way to stop the insanity.
