Towed and launched/retrieved a 20ft tritoon for the first time today. No issues at all. Pulled the boat easy, launch ramp was a breeze in and out. This truck is up to the task! (Ecoboost with 4K)

Bradenton, FL. Lariat Lux AWD 4K Tow Shadow Black. Paid MSRP. Ordered early July, took delivery December 18th. Ordered from Mullinax Apopka to avoid added Doc fees.

Mullinax Apopka was not only MSRP but no crazy doc fees either, which is hard to find in Florida. Mine was a preorder though, so not sure about lot trucks.

True. When I lived in Syracuse, I always relied on do it your self power washer car wash places in the winter. It was freezing but did it’s job enough to wash off salt etc.

Used Meguiar’s Hybrid Ceramic Spray Wax today after the wash. Looks pretty good and has paint feeling smooth as glass.

Would the one for the escape fit?

Tape comes already attached to the plates. All you have to do is peel off a film and stick on. Pre-wipe area with rubbing alcohol first as well.

3M tape. Sturdy though. Pretty easy.

I ran mine under truck. Didn’t need any extra wire. Been meaning to take a video, I will soon, just been rainy.

One switch. Had to splice one connection and run under truck by spare tire/tailgate area. Was actually pretty easy and clean. Yep. Trimmed. I’m not sure what the other user did for his final installation but mine is 3M taped on inside left of bed near the factory light.

lights came with their own switch. Wired with the pigtail that came with truck. Ran one side underneath truck by spare tire/tailgate. I haven’t yet tested how long they stay on. I’ll try it out.

I used the switch that came with lights but I’m sure someone could probably tap into the factory bed light if they wanted to.

installed new bed LEDs today. Fairly easy, but did take a couple hours to splice and run wiring. Cheap and nice lighting though.

Put this on today. Looks great with the shadow black truck and fits great. Nice little mod when not towing anything currently. Link below if interested. $14.99 Trailer Hitch Tube Cover Plug Cap for Ford,Rubber Receiver Tube Hitch Plug,F150 F250 Trailer Hitch Cover (fit Ford)

Anyone do any of the fender flares or gatorback mud flaps? Trying to see how they look on shadow black before a possible order.
