One Piece at a Time - Upgrades / Modifications

[crunchie_frog]

Don't get me wrong, I like my new Cactus Gray XLT 4K tow. What I have learned is that I feel like I need to do some "changes" to make it like I really want it as below:

1. Homelink Mirror, compass auto dimming
2. Wireless apple car play
3. Wireless iphone charger
4. Front speakers
5. LED back up/reverse and cargo lights
6. Bed rail tie down
7. Bed dividers
8. Tailgate assist
9. Custom fit all weather floor mats front and rear

As I was filling up my Amazon cart (and others) looks like I will be around $500 so I guess not so bad but as I started looking at the list of things it reminded me of an old Johnny Cash song - "One Piece at Time" . I thought maybe some other boomers out there may remember this song but I cannot get it out of my mind now ha ha. Have a nice day!

I got this wireless CarPlay device, and it works great. Plugs into either of the dedicated connective ports (USB C or A), and very small (about 2in square) so tucks away out of sight.

I see the price has gone up since I ordered it — I only paid $69 for it.

If memory serves me correctly, a lot of it went home in a lunchbox. Now we are showing our age.

Yes and I think the bigger stuff went out in his buddy’s motor home. Funny thing is, I know Ford (and likely all of the big manufacturers) has had large scale factory theft of engines, transmissions, wheels and tires. Maybe accounting is keeping a closer eye but some parts are probably still disappearing.

Thank you so much, definitely adding this to my cart. It's a pain having to use a cord.
