Installed one last week on an 09. Pretty easy install once you throw the directions in the trash after you cuss them!

Is that the 5.5 or 6.5 bed? Did you happen to get any mileage info with the stock tires after the leveling kit was installed? I am definately thinking about a leveling kit when I get my 2010, but don't think I am going to replace the tires right away. Truck didn't look bad with stockers... Of course it looks awesome with 35's. I probably won't upgrade much more than 285 or maybe 305's. I want to keep the mileage decent.
I love the dark blue pearl, but I already have a mustang that color, so the wife wouldn't let me get another dark color... So I ordered the blue flame.

5.5ft bed. and theres was no difference in mileage with the level kit and stock tires. you could go with a 33in tire and it wont hurt the mileage to much. the 35s didnt hurt to bad either

Kinda thinking I should have gotten the 5.5 bed... Looks taller I guess...
Chose 6.5 because I think I'll get more use out of the extra foot...

yeah theres only so much i can put in the bed of my truck but it gets the job done, if i need more room i just hook up the trailer. i pesonally dont like the way the trucks look with 4door and a 6.5 foot bed. looks to long. and these trucks are already long to begin with. with i 6.5 bed i couldnt park it in the garage either.
