Talking Greetings from Washington State

Greetings, I've been a lurker on this forum for awhile as I was deciding on my new truck purchase and this weekend finally pulled the trigger on a brand new, 2019 F-150 Lariat in Abyss Gray. So far have to say I love this truck. It's my first truck since I was in my 20's (I'm late 40's now). Definitely will take awhile to learn how to park her, but hope to figure that out soon. I labored over the decision for months and kept going back and forth between the F-150 and the new RAM 1500s, but at the end of the day, decided the Ford was the way to go. Specs: 3.5L V6 Ecoboost, 3.55 rear axle, FX4 package, Lariat trim level with leather, pano sunroof. It's going back into the shop next week for a spray-in liner and window tint. Mods I hope to do soon: LED headlights, blacked out logos, aftermarket bed step. Eventually I'll probably upgrade the stereo, but so far it's not nearly as bad as some of the reports I've read on this forum and for not even being the upgraded B&O system. Looking forward to chatting with you all!
