I ordered my 25 XLT in August and it arrived a Granger Ford 30 Jan. I grew up in Des Moines, and my Mom still lives here, so I flew out on the 5th, and Rick, from Granger picked me up at the airport. I’m going to start heading back to Vegas on the 15th, or earlier, depending on the weather.
I did what I usually do, and had mods prepositioned. I started with Mabett floor mats. It came with a bed mat, that I’ll be using for the time being. The first major mod was taking it to Line-X for color matched bed liner and undercoating. They did a great job of matching the Desert Sand. I like the job they did on the undercoating. I have ordered Diode Dynamics fog lights that won’t arrive until May. I will have Line-X in Las Vegas do the install.
The next project was Maxzina bed rails and molle rack against the cab. It was very easy to install. I like the bed rails for sure. I like the molle rack, but we will see how useful it may be.
Today, I replaced the wheels and tires at the local Discount Tire near Moms house. I went with Korupt Bronze 17 inch wheels, with black lug nuts. The tires I chose were Cooper Road and Trail 235/65/R17. I like how the wheels look and the tires fit in the wells with no issues. I have a set of Mabett mud flaps and fender flares back in Vegas. I’m going to color match the fender flares. I think with these tires the flares won’t look too dumb. I’ll tape them up and see. I have the OEM wheels and tires on Marketplace here in DSM. If they don’t sell, I’ll take them to Vegas and try there.
