ETA is 5/22-6/1. So getting VERY close! Already have tires, mud flaps, tonneau cover in hand. Wheels should be here about the same time as the truck. Mine's only a heavily optioned Laramie, so not quite as nice as your limited. :D
You sound like me! I had everything here waiting on her :) just getting her all fixed up now. The tires and wheels were the hardest part since I had to find an actual off-road truck business to do it since the other places couldn’t accommodate a 35 inch tire lol

I paired my trailer TPMS sensors and set up in the Uconnect5 screen but I can’t get the target pressure to stay at 60 pounds it always reverts back to 50 psi. Does anybody have a way to set the target pressure and have it lock in?

What model?
Lomax folding hardcover with the black urethane finish. The finish seems much more durable then the bakflip mx4 that I have on my 1500. Pro’s - Fits perfectly, lightweight, incredibly easy to remove (30 seconds), looks like it seals well (though I haven’t verified it). Cons - Have to take it off to use the front 1/3 of the bed Unobstructed, and doesn’t sit flush with bed rails like the MX4. I’m hopeful I’m going to like it. I went with something other then the MX4 because I was tired of scratches on the finish from stuff being ontop of the bed cover. I went with the Lomax because it is much lighter weight when folding up, which with as tall as our trucks are, is an issue. The local shop which sells bakflip, undercover, and Lomax highly recommended the lomax for durability. We shall see if that holds true.

Finally got the wheels and tires changed out. Went 35 Kanati Trail Hogs on 20x9 XD Rockstar wheels. 4EAE1793-8191-4BFB-9FEE-50A7F70F0FBB.jpeg

Rancho 9000XLs went on the PW yesterday and seem a nice improvement over the factory Bilsteins without going high $ or getting into rebuilds…had enough of that with the Ford. I wanted somewhat better but disposable when worn, $400 experiment and easy swap of course.
With the cap and sliders/bumper/gear etc she is a bit heavy, higher adjustment in the rear firmed her up nicely around town at least. Will go softer still in the front, probably. Super-soft in the slow rolling deer and elk mountains might be nice, will see.

Picked up my new truck from MD and drove 705 miles to home, and never stopped for fuel!!
50 gallon tank, 4WD with 4.10 ratio, 6.4L.
I will figure out actual mpg tomorrow when I fill up, but lie-o-meter says 17.2
Take a bow, Mr Hemi

Got her tinted yesterday, put a screen protector. 15% in front, 15% in back, and 50% windshield. Later this week, I’m going to get my tonneau cover installed, Putco HEX Mud Skins, and wheels and tires on. View attachment 37590
Nice truck. Never thought about adding window tenting until I joined this forum. I will definitely add it. 50% on windshiel, is that just a 4-6 inch strip at the top? .

Tinted the truck yesterday. Had Xpel XR Plus (ceramic) put on all the windows. 70% on the front windshield, the rear doors and the rear window. Had 20% put on the driver and passenger door. I had to raise the temperature on the AC because the inside of the truck cools down so much now. The 70% is basically clear so you cant even tell that the tint is there, but it blocks the heat incredibly well.

Thanks for the info. When you have it folded up against the cab, does it cover the cargo camera? I am hoping I can still use my digital rear view camera when it is folded up. I hate the way my MX4 shows all the scratches on my 1500, thats why am looking for something else for my 2500.

Finally got around to installing most of my accessories. Bed Rails, Headache Rack, Front and rear flaps, Bug deflector, Banks Pedal Monster, Fuel tank installed for equipment. Decked toolbox after I pickup a 5th wheel to insure it does not interfere.
