Got the 4 side windows tinted and windshield lightly tinted. Did not add tint to the back window because I ordered an A.R.E. shell for the truck. The tint sure does keep the truck a lot cooler than without it, I highly recommend it!

 

I highly doubt they have holes, but you may get a faster response asking in the '17 super duty section.

 

Put in the Ford floor liners the dealer gave me as a courtesy for buying the truck from him, even though I know I paid for em. They are actually pretty nice and I think they will work well for us.

 

Thanks Ron I'll give that a shot.

 

Removed mine. No holes.

 

Cool thanks!

 

I barely began to pull on the flex fuel badge and it popped right off. Unfortunately the tape stayed on. With a little WD40 and some work it came off without too much trouble. Looks much better without!

 

So our truck didn't come with a tailgate step which I was a little bummed about since these trucks are so tall, but I decided to get an AMP Research bed step for it. Definitely makes up for not having the tailgate step and in some ways I like it better......

 

Put on a 2WD front valance, black mirror caps, and rear wheel well liners too.....

 

Looking good. Since you appear to like the "clean" look, have you considered removing the equation sticker (4x4) from the back?

 

I do like the way it looks without the stickers and have been thinking about it but I'm not committed quite yet.

 

I think you are right on that. I've looked at the tailgate step and its a little cumbersome but not too bad. The big issue I saw was, normally, if I am loading something in which I need to jump up on the truck, the item is in the middle of the tailgate and I need the step on the side! I like that idea.

 

I think both have their positives and negatives, but for someone like me who's truck didn't have the tailgate step this is a nice easy and relatively cheap alternative to trying to add the OEM one. I'm really happy with it.

 

For anyone who might be contemplating which engine to go with in their super duty for the same reasons we did after having the diesel in our last truck I wanted to add a quick update.

The way we use our truck on a day to day basis is short trips. As I said before this was really bad for our diesel engine as the truck never had a chance to totally warm up and it hardly ever had a chance to get through a full regen. It wasn't until we hooked our camper up and pulled it for a while did the truck get warmed up well and get through a regen like it should.

This is where the 6.2 liter engine shines, at least so far with the short tripping we do daily. It is really refreshing to be able to use the truck the way we need to without worrying about it not warming up or the regen issue. It got to the point with our diesel that we didn't even like driving it because we felt we were going to cause issues. Not so with this one. It is very smooth, pretty powerful for around town, warms up quick, and I am really enjoying driving it and not having to worry if I am going to damage an expensive emissions system in the process.

The only thing we haven't done yet is tow with it. Keep in mind where we live we have so many awesome camping spots close that it doesn't make sense for us to go too far away. We are working on getting a new travel trailer but it may take a couple months (may actually wait until spring now) before we make a deal and pick it up and start using it. So if this truck will pull a 5-7k lb trailer decent enough to get us to our local camping spots I am going to really get a long well with this truck!

 

Really like that step. See they make a side step to. Was it easy to install?
