A Superduty doing what Superduties do

Just wanted to post a pic of one of the things I use my truck for, deer hunting. No luck this season but it was time to get the stands out of the woods. Had a flat at New Years that caused me to get new tires a little sooner than planned, but I’m not complaining. Was muddy out and the new BFG KO2 combined with the rear locker did great.

May will close out 3 years with the truck and I still love it.

Looks like Fun. Our hunting is all in Sept-Oct and maybe November depending on the tag. Too much snow to get into the mountains this time of year and the animals are all crowded into winter feeding areas. So not very sporting to hunt after December. I usually pack in camp in September and go pull the wall tent and stuff out Halloween weekend before it gets snowed in for the winter. It's an all day trip on the horses to ride in, break camp and haul it out. Bad enough at 25° in October, miserable in December at 0°

I've been patiently waiting for my Mickey Thompson Baja AT tires to wear out. I figured I'd need new tires in December. But here it is almost March and 8,000 miles later , and I've still got a a couple 32'nds above the wear bars. and well over 55,000 miles.

Hauling a GN horse trailer around Utah, Idaho and Wyoming, I just don't like getting on the bottom side of my tires. Especially during the winter months, With spring coming and longer trips in the calendar, I'm about ready to loose patience and just buy new set.

Eh, I'm lazy when it comes car washes, My truck is a full time outdoors vehicle, I haven't washed mine in probably six months and every time it gets too dirty I just wait for the rain to do the cleaning.

Car washes are not kind to bigger trucks like ours.

I hunt in Virginia so no harsh winter here. Only get two weeks of rifle season the part of Virginia I hunt. We just left our stands up until now.

Nice picture of overall, the truck and the environment. Is this a Leer camper shell? I like the mid rise height.

Yea, a Leer mid rise. Have camped out of the back on a cot a couple times too. Better than a tent.

I have the same one on my previous F150 I just sold while waiting for my SuperDuty order. I camped out in it occasionally too. 😊

When I seen the title and open the post I figured it'd be a super duty at the mall ( seems that's what most are used for)

Keep the pictures coming.

Black is a bear to keep shiny. I can tell you it’s not that shiny right now but with winter, washes are definitely less frequent. Only gets washed at home.

BlieFishGary,

White King Ranch colors sure hide the dirt.

Is that wind deflector custom built or something you purchased?

Thanks in advance,
