If we all procrastinate this event into January or later, I'll plan it. But I need my truck to show up first. Haha. Might not be a bad idea since it gets us past the holidays. Otherwise it would need to be in the next couple weeks. Weather is probably going to be cold and rainy either way. Other benefit is we might see a 23!

I'd say later. Wife recently got an incident with a deer.
Deer was fine but the Maverick isn't.

Just a suggestion, but how about a meet up at the Starbucks in SODO? Big parking lot, Pecos Pit BBQ near by and other food. Home Depot near by. Not the nice park type meet up place but central and amenities.

Was thinking more like Tacoma

While that's closer to you, for someone from Everett or even Bellingham its a lot further. About halfway Lacy to Everett is Tukwila/Renton area. I've seen posts from Centralia to Bellingham.

I did have another suggestion. Gene Coulon Park near The Landing just off 405 and at the south east tip of Lake WA. Nice small park with an Ivars. Also Landing is major shopping area but a bit off from the park, less than a mile to all kinds of food, etc.

Grew up in Kent and went to Coulon Park a lot. Blast from the past. Might be a contender if I end up planning the meetup.

That Rapid Red I would’ve gone for that had it not been FE-exclusive, so I went for HPR.

What size and model are of those Falken Wildpeaks? My incoming XLT FX4 will have the black rims and I plan on ditching the OEM Pirellis as soon as I get it. Looks so good with those rims together.

the tires are 235/65 R17 A/T

Who is driving my truck in Mountlake Terrace at 4:45 pm Friday? Came off I-5 and headed east towards Brier. I did a triple take since it is even my color!

So I'm enjoying my Lariat, 173 miles so far. I did "truck stuff" today, took garbage to dump. Sorry forgot to take pic. Got 4 garbage cans and 3 large lawn bags of garbage in the back with tonneau rolled up open. I do loose about 8 inches of open space, but was able to put bags under cover and had room for cans. A commercial packing blanket covered back seat where I got about 10 bags of recycle in as well.

Still working on "mods", but to date I have:
Ford Hard Roll-up tonneau
CPLAY2air bluetooth adapter
Tailgate lettering
Tuxmats
Rexing dash cam
Ceramic coating lite (from dealer)
Lund Aeroskin Smoke Hood Protector
Lund Smoke Low Profile Side Window Deflectors
Bumper Cap (small piece to fill in around hitch)
Seahawk license plate to balance rear end (I'm doing a hinge on plate so it lifts when trailer plug in is needed.)

I put some Michelin X-Ice SUV tires on the Maverick Monday morning. Just bought the 225/65/17 size at Discount Tire out the door for ~$925. Might get a set of 245/65/17 ATs next Spring. Haven't decided the brand yet.
Went up to Cascade National Park last couple days and threw some snowballs with my son.

Pulled into the Landing in Renton tonight and just had to park next to a Carbon Gray XL Hybrid.

You didn't tell me there was a meet-up!

It's too quiet in here! Where are all the WA folks?

Lived up there Enumclaw/Kent back in the 80's Green River Gorge and Bonney lake were 2 of my favorite spots

You wouldn't recognize Bonney Lake now. Strip malls, tract homes, stop lights as far as the eye can see. A mess at rush hour. But you can now get home in Tehaleh starting in the high 800's. LOL
