There are two schools of thought on this Forum. I'm in the never exceed GCVWR Camp. Exceeding the GCVWR opens you up to a whole lot of liability should you get in an accident, roll the truck over or go off the road. Without a brake controller you won't be able to stop in an emergency situation.

They look gr8. I have the Tremor in Shadow Black, but the decals don't stand out like yours do.

I read somewhere on the internet (so it must be true) that these filters cost $1,000s.

I have the textured tape on deflector. Worth every penny on BC highways. Since I park my truck in my garage, this should extend its life considerably.

I don't mind the new front, but prefer the old one. The new Lobo grill reminds me of a Lincoln grill too much. Looks totally daft. The new Tremor grill is nowhere near as good as the old one. However, I do like many of the new features, such as the 360 degree camera and larger display.

There are door decals as well.

Okay - makes sense. Bummer that the XLT Tremor is now no longer available.

I'd recommend getting the 4K Tow package. A no brainer at the price.

My 24 Tremor with Lux Package (USD$ 3,000 upgrade) cost USD$ 33,000. USD$ 41,000 is a hefty hike in price in one year.

I have the same hood protector, the same truck (Tremor) and the same colour. I don't know about you, but it's an absolute babe magnet in the 60+ female segment.

I have to go to the bathroom every 30 mins when I sleep. That ladder would do me in.

Who knows. Chips are a fact of life. It's pot luck whether a rock will chip a windshield or not. Too many variables to establish cause and effect. Unless you can prove the windshield was defective, you'll just have to bite-the-bullet.

Did you do the roof as well - or are there too many ridge lines?

The hybrid is rated at 2,000lbs towing. If he wants to tow 3,500lbs he needs to shed 1,500lbs of weight to stay within the GCVWR. Impossible.

Good luck trying to prove that the 2" lift didn't cause the problem. The dealer installed the lift because you asked for it. A good dealer would have told you that a lift stresses the CV axles and they will likely fail. Modding your Mav is the escape valve Ford needs to deny a warranty claim.

That's a donkey driver who has no respect for human life. I would have called the police immediately. Too many idiots on the road these days (including me).

Larger tires is the safest option (shouldn't invalidate your warranty) since they won't affect the CV angle. But they will probably reduce your suspension travel since they are higher up your wheel well. But I'm an accountant so what do I know?

My Ford dealer up here in Canada installed a brake controller and 7/4 pin connector for CDN $750 (USD $550). Although my Tremor is limited to 2,000 lbs, my thinking was three pairs of brakes are better than two. Besides, more and more lightweight trailers now come with electric brakes (ie Rove).

Get your brake controller checked out. Not good if not working properly.

Actually SAE J2807 says what the tests are - and they are not ideal: SAE J2807 Tow Tests - The Standard (motortrend.com) The liability implications of towing in less than ideal conditions governs towing capacity.
