New To Me Truck

Last August I sold my 2006 F-250 6.0 because I don't have an RV/toy hauler anymore and I just got tired of worrying about the 6.0. I went a few months without a personal truck which sucked but do have a 2011 F-150 XLT as a company truck which helped. This weekend I picked up a 2011 F-150 Platinum with 76,000 miles on a 6.2L engine. It has everything on it already that I wanted except for an exhaust and intake. It has a 2 inch leveling kit with 33 inch Cooper Discoverers so the wife is happy that I don't have to start throwing more money at it immediately. Later this summer I plan on a Roush cat back system and a K&N cold air intake.
