Anyways, I do have some questions.

When should I change the oil?
I did mine at 1700, then 5000 then every 5000 after that. Just makes it easy to remember the nice round numbers.

Where I live, we don't have many E85 fuel stations but if I end up finding one can I mix regular fuel with E85? Should I be concerned about E85 in cold weather conditions?
You can mix the gas, but I would not recommend ever using the E85 unless it is at least $1 cheaper, not worth it. You will get less power and less MPG (and these trucks don't get that good of MPG's as it is).

In the front bumper where the plow hook ups are, I have a plug which I am assuming is a block heater hook up. I've seen the option on Ford.com's build website but I don't really get why you'd need one on a gas motor. Does it have anything to do with the FlexFuel stuff?
Yes the plug is for a engine heater, they come standard on trucks sold in certain cold weather states. I have one and use it every morning during the winter. Heats up the oil and makes the truck run a little bit better during the cold. I got a timer and connected a cord to that so that it is only drawing power for about 3 hours, any more and you are wasting electricity.

This is one mean beast of a truck. It puts everything I've ever driven to shame. As much as I love it, I think my friends and family love it more.
Everyone gets so excited when they see it, infact-one of my friends is buying a new one this week just because he likes mine so much.

I can't wait to test out the E-Locker in the snow, bring on that white gold!!!
