But it's a silver one! Picked it up a couple of weeks ago from 1Ags contact and drove home to Fort Worth. I couldn't find a truck like I wanted anywhere in the US, so I ended up ordering one.

6.5ft bed, dark Marsala interior, 36 gallon tank, 3.55, platinum with no sunroof.

I put the bilstein 5100s on it and squeezed n some 285/65/20 BFG KO2s and got a custom tune from 5 star tunes with the SCT tuner to fix everything(including deleting auto stop/start). Although, I am still having some problems with my speedometer being off. I'll have to call 5 star when I get some time.

I couldn't be happier with it and was well worth the 2 month wait to order it!

Except if the speedometer worked.

J/k, sweet ride!

Platinum without a sunroof is rare breed.

Dang near impossible to find. I have a feeling they are special order only.

I've got a 2000 Wrangler that allows me to get my vitamin D.

Sweet truck. I think your garage was hoping for the shorter bed. I agree on the sunroof.

No joke. I found those ramps so I don't have to slowly gas it over the curb. It is still a bit of a process.

-pull up
-hit garage remote
-fold in mirrors
-usually put it in 4wd so it crawls better
-hit the front camera button twice
-feather it up the ramp
-avoid crashing through the wall

Would it fit without going on the curb if you backed it in?

Dude, you don't need 4wd in your garage!

Nice truck though

I don't think so, but it would be tough to get out of the door against the wall every time with it backed in. My wife backs in her expedition on the other side and that's where the house door is.

How's the tune been overall from 5 Star? Was thinking about getting one for my expedition, but I'm a little worried about voiding the warranty.

What kind of gains have you seen in HP and mpg?

I had the tuner with custom tunes on my 2011 5.0 f150. The tuner was like night and day with that truck. I could not believe how much faster it was and how different the shift points were. It was awesome. My MPG increased by 1 if I drove it normal.

On this truck, I honestly only had it for a week before I put the tunes on. It still had the paper plates. I don't notice as much of a difference and I think that has something to do with it being a 10 speed. It's no doubt quicker and shifts better, but it doesn't seem as drastically different as my 2011 did. I'm not sure on MPG yet. But one big thing it did that I like is it automatically disables the auto start/stop so I don't have to hit the button every time.

Also, it won't void your warranty. You can just return the truck to "stock" with the tuner before you take it in. I'm thinking about doing it on my wife's '19 Expy as well.
