The things we do to keep the wife happy

[snoeatr]

Sounds like you have a cool wife. I have to plant the idea months in advance then try to convince a while and eventually beg then just buy a new truck. She then follows with "I miss your old truck" lol. Congrats on the nice truck!

Very smart choice of truck your wife picked out.

Beautiful truck! Huge hunk of iron for sure. Nobody does the interior of a truck like FORD...they do it right, and there is no better way to travel the globe than in one of these trucks. $63k is a chunk of bread though and once you add the extras you will bump $70k or better. The truck will last for years and many miles. Wonder how much more your insurance jumped over the H?

On behalf of FORD MOTOR COMPANY and it's employees, thanks for buying a FORD. Ford trucks is the life blood of FORD and strong sales insures FORD survival in very competitive times. Enjoy the new truck; buying one is one of life's simple pleasures.

$22.00 dollars more for a year. I can live with that!

Looks like a sweet early xmas present...now what are you buying her?!

isn't it enough that she'll be able to talk to me during our trips? Also she can actually reach the stereo and listen to what she would like to listen too. lol

Wait til you turn the stereo up to drown out the engine and she
crosses her arms. AHHH peace while the Stones rock.


But really a very nice ride!

Now I got to find the time to get the recommended miles on it (500) before towing.

Horse feathers. Break that thing in with some load on it. Best thing you can do!

Nice truck BTW.

winch and marker lights done

To appease the wife, the wireless remote winch is mounted on a hitch receiver plate and can be installed or removed in less than 3 minutes The winch and plow can also be put in the back receiver. The cab marker lights I had installed turn in to strobe lights at the flick of a switch. Can wait to show the wife that one. ha ha And next step, train horns.
