^^^^ Hardy har har Zack lol
It's not the bigger brother just the fatter one lol
They are identical though but I opted not to get nav on mine because I decided I would finally stop half assing my sound system and just go balls to the wall. So a 2013 Kenwood unit that retains my Sync and has android connectivity but also does wifi like the the new Ford nav units. It's gonna be sick!
Nice truck Rick. Glad to see you finally stepped up... Now it's Zack's turn lol

Now it's Zack's turn lol Its the fatter sexier one... Especially once it gets low... Granted that'll be awhile I thought that too about getting one with the standard radio but all of the lariet duallys I looked at all had the Ford Navi in it and one platinum model had the standard unit but have you seen the price on the platinum?. But later down the road, when the ford stereo gets old, maybe an iPad with a couple amps and subs will go in... But I've got basic mods to do for now, like getting the windows tinted, getting the grille painted like the king ranch ones, and some black overheds I am jelly about the chrome mirror caps though. I'm trying to get some for mine lol Really? Im not to fond of all of the chrome to be truthful. Its nice but not worth the extra grand Ford charges for it. Same with the rear heated seats... When is that ever going to be used. But this is the first one Ive seen with the Powerstroke decal on the hood which I actually like instead of the door badge on it which I plan to get rid once I pick it up

Mine has all the chrome except the damn mirror caps!! lol I will trade you mirrors if you really don't like the chrome. That's all mine needs to be complete I was pissed cause like 2 days after I bought mine I realized I could have gotten one with the heated rear seats haha You just never know! That and the heated steering wheel lol If I had gotten one with the Ford nav and Sony system I probably would just never have upgraded it. I'm getting to the point where stuff is just "good enough" lol And I'll tell you what. I hadn't seen 1 modified diesel truck in the year I've been driving my 08 and sure shit I get this new one and have to keep it stock for the warranty and I've been smoked like 6 times in 2 weeks. WTF is that? lol

WTF is that? lol We'll see about the caps. Ive only driven the truck once during the test drive. I don't get it until tomorrow since Bob Turners is doing the spray on bedliner and adding a auxillary tank in the bed as part of the deal. So I really am not sure how to feel about the chrome just yet. I want some chrome but not mexican amounts lol which the mirrors are pushing the envelope... Your right about the heated rear seats. May need them one day. But the stock sony system sounds really good. So it'll definitely be awhile before it gets thought about... And damn warranties. I got the extended warranty so at most it may just get a filter back exhaust and thats it. Slick looking truck Congrats man! Thanks man!

Im rarely in and out. I'm always on long hauls so gotta go with comfort lol. It was 63,600.
Most kids after finishing school buy a house, or something more practical. I go and get a truck.. At least I can live in the back seat lol

If ram would pull there head out of there asses and have a 6 speed in a Laramie with cab & chassis I would do it but they don't. Hope you have better luck then a guy I know with his 6.7. Maybe he just has bad luck

I got the bed liner and extended warranty as well lol It's not that bad actually... The line x ones are still a little cleaner looking but I knew the guy in the Don Chalmers accessories department so he hooked it up! Even got the windows tinted over there lol I didn't get any extras other than a full tank of fuel but I did get to use my dads fleet discount and a couple Ford rebates. Before the extended warranty and maintenance plan etc I got the truck for 48,500.

That's not bad Ryan. Both the trucks I got quotes for are decent priced. Melloy dodge sucks so I went out of state. The 5500 st is a single cab 4x4 with a 108" ca ( cab to axle) is 42,000 then I'm getting a custom flat bed that's 19,000 more. The 5500 slt 4dr 4wd with an 84" ca with a cm flat bed is 44,000 out the door. Just debating on what truck to upgrade.

That's not bad either! I would always prefer to have more cab space just incase. You never know what the future holds and I'd rather have to much than not enough.
Mine is a 4 door longbed, fx4, lariat with all of the options except a sunroof, clearance lights and nav. Sticker price was 59,500. I'm glad I didn't buy the 4 door shortbed, cloth interior duramax I was looking at for 52k lol
