2018 F150 thread

Well my long awaited 2018 F150 XLT Screw, 3.5 max tow truck has arrived to my dealership in Phoenix AZ TODAY ! I'm scheduled to pick it up Friday afternoon. I will post pics of another WHITE FORD F150. White is the only way to go in AZ (its HOT here). After last nights Dust storm, my old 2006 F250 is Dirty. I washed it on Tuesday. Somebody else will have to wash it now.

I saw one in front of my local dealer yesterday. Short bed regular cab in black. Looked good. Really not that different from the current trucks.

It rides really nice compared to my old F250. The Dealership is only 12miles away, and there was a ton of traffic, but it handled the bad streets with all kinds of bumps we have in Phoenix, and did it smoothly. Its gets up and goes. Got's to be careful because it wants to go faster than the speed limits.
Its going to take a while to figure out all of the gadgets. I think I'll start with Sync-3 today !

I put a 2 inch kit even before I took it home. Scary seeing it apart already but I trust the tech that installed them. He put levelers on my last truck and other stuff for me. Plus we are/have been Harley Davidson Owners.

Dang, I liked having that easy indicator whether a truck was a EB or a V8.

REALLY? That's a deal breaker for me. Going to get the 6.7L where I KNOW I'll get door badges.

I wonder if the Mexican Ford Lobo will come with "Lobo" across the tailgate. I'm near the Mexican border and I even thought about changing the "F150" to "Lobo" a few times. Wolf in Spanish....
