New (again) guy

Hello all! Hope everyone is ready for a great TG and holidays.

I sold my old '96 quite awhile ago so haven't been around. Saturday we drove home a babied 2013 5.0L XLT SuperCab 4x4 with 8' bed. 40K miles! I'll be looking at what it takes to update the infotainment system from higher end models parts. Need a dashcam and the larger screen would be nice, depending on what's compatible. I've much to learn. Apparently something called Forescan is in my future.

Also, remote start, a good rail system for the bed, headlight upgrades, mud mats, a good smartphone mount, and all that other rocket science involved with a new truck. Expecting some automotive retail therapy the next few days!

Welcome back.
Try the "Newer Light Duty Trucks" section and the "Miscellaneous" section. The folks there should be able to handle your queries.
