    Nope, not liking that or clicking the pic.

    Hope you feel better soon! Can you ice it to numb it?

    The 3.5l Powerboost hybrid.

    I don't do a ton of highway commuting so the better city mileage is a big benefit for me. I also wanted something that I can tow a travel trailer up and over the mountains to the East side of the state so the towing performance was a factor as well with towing mileage being less of a consideration because mountains will kill it either way.

    I am doing the basics to it, bedliner, tonneau cover, tint, all weather mats. I have been looking at the Fox kit to level the front but other than that I'm not sure about anything else.

    If MPGs were any kind of a factor for you, don't level it.

    I need to get my bed lined, and I'm eyeing tuxmats. @LarryDangerfield would be proud. I should see if he has a referral code or something. He's gotta have stock in them for as much as he promotes them.

    Legit question, do they go on sale? Is there a better place to buy them for pricing and shipping cost/speed?

    From what I have seen they never do sales and the price on Amazon is the exact same as buying it from them direct.

    I had a very mild outbreak a few years back but caught it before it ever neared a full attack. Mine erupted in a nerve in my head behind my right ear and towards my right eye. It would throb and literally drop me to my knees it hurt so bad. The P.A. at my doctor's office used to work in Urgent Care and diagnosed it quickly and got me the right meds immediately. Within 2 days I was good. I got both shots shortly after. Shingles sucks and you do NOT want to experience it for yourself.

    Hope you feel better

    I think it looks pretty cool, I say slap it all on you can always peel and change it later. How do you like that seat?

    LOVE the seat. It's a bit wider in the mid section, so my fat ass isn't getting a wedgie by the stock seat, and it gives me a bit to grip against and not slide back on the seat. Still hoping it breaks in a bit on the softness-side, but we'll see. It's been shit weather here, I haven't ridden in a couple weeks I think. It's sunny and mid 30's today so I'm hoping I can get in a small ride, but we'll see if the wife and daughter cooperate.


    Speaking of, she tried to help me put the decals on..

    Very nice man! We found a 2.7 eco wanted a 3.5 but found this one for a great price and it will tow anything I ever need lol

    If you are thinking of doing the fox kit ask @Squirt he has it on his 3.5 eco and loves it
    A level is fine I didn't lose next to any mpg doing a lvl on my 17

    You can't compare diesel and gas. They don't work the same way. That's like saying you want to buy a diesel because you'll save money not buying spark plugs.

    And how much do you tow? He said he bough his for towing performance. A level negates the rake that is there for the purpose of towing. It'll wind up more nose high and take a bigger hit.

    Nice that's good to hear... every time I look at graphics can't decide whether to keep a grey and yellow scheme, or recover/replace the seat and go different colors.

    :hearteyes: OMG so sweet ... maybe you can sneak out at nap time :bikewheelie2:

    That makes it hurt worse. Hurts to just barely touch it.

    Yes sleep is very hard right now. It’s getting worse by the hour. Looks like a third degree burn. Nasty ,, yes I hope it goes quick. So far it’s still getting worse.

    I mean true but it has a turbo and a lot of them years ago didn't have a turbo lol we had a 7.3 non turbo years ago and it was a dog!
    really? Lol I've towed at my max towing and a bit over multiple times haha I use my truck as a truck and my truck does it just fine. If you feel the ass squat get a set of airbags for the back it will help with it squatting. The factory rake on Ford is excessive... Can easily lower the level (if it's adjustable to still have a bit of rake like my truck has...
