  1. Thanks to this thread I ended up ordering a Banks Pedal Monster having no idea what it would do or if I would actually like it. But the videos on YouTube and reviews seemed promising. Coming from a F150 for 7 years and 21 days (105,573mi) to this being my first 250 and Diesel truck I knew it would take some adjusting. For the first night and full day I couldn’t get the hang of accelerating especially out of turns. I felt like grandma driving a station wagon. I installed the pedal monster this morning and 2 stop signs, one light and two turns later just getting out of the neighborhood I can’t imagine driving without it now. It’s a total game changer on the throttle and easily the biggest and simplest improvement I’ve ever made to a vehicle. I would highly suggest everyone gets one, it’s well worth triple the price for the drive difference for me.
  2. Thank you for all your help! Picked the truck up last night and I remember your rules of wanting to see the vehicles LOL, so here you go, Old and New together for the only time. Thank you for offering your services to everyone.
  3. Picked up tonight, 3" to 2 1/2" reducer included. Dealer told me that Ford doesn't offer the 2 1/2" to 2" anymore.
  4. After a pleasant surprise of shipping time from rail in Miami to Dealer in West Palm, another SD found a home tonight. Ill post more about timeline, dealer experience and all that jazz tomorrow. But figured id just drop this in here for now as its the only picture I have at the moment anyways.
  5. Ive been curious of this as well. My order was built 2/18 and shipped via rail ~2/23. It arrived in Miami according to the dealer and @jhaber who tracked the train with his truck on it as well. Both going to the same dealer in West Palm. Dealer today told me its 10-14 days to come up from there ?
  6. Same stations $3.99 unleaded yesterday, $4.19 today. Diesel $4.99. West Palm Beach, and those are the "hood stations", generally cheapest with a side of panhandling.
  7. Just called Line X of Palm beach for 6.75’ 250. $700 standard, $800 premium. Called Line X of Fort Lauderdale next, $600 for standard and $700 for premium. I’ll make a 40 mile drive to save $100. Try to schedule the ARE bedcover install the same day as they are down the street from each other.
  8. But the colored hair, tolerant, alphabet people might get their feelings hurt if we don't embrace everyone in the world. Except those evil people who want to see America succeed.
  9. When did your truck get built/shipped? Dealer hasn’t given me anything more then the “Eta 3/5-3/11, don’t know more then that”.
  10. At least I won’t have to stop every week? Yea it won’t be fun at all. But I’d rather not stop every 300 miles if I can avoid it. Even though this is a daily driver truck and practically won’t be on any real road trips.
  11. Still fueling the 150, hopefully this was the last tank, but it was $3.999 for regular 87. I ordered a 60 gallon S&B this afternoon for the 250, that’ll be fun to fill once it get here and installed.
  12. As if waiting and knowing its on its way any day isn't enough anticipation, the dealers sponsored ads keep popping up on my feeds... of MY TRUCK. I can't not think about it, its completely encompassed every aspect of my life the past week ?
  13. In your photo of "proof", there is a SUV ahead of the SD too. Now we all know those aren't built on the same lines. Just because you post some random picture from some random website of some random building doesn't prove anything. But sure, live your dream.
  14. Let’s think for a second. How much sense would it make to send a 450 DRW down the line, with different leaf springs, rear axle length, extra wheels… after a basic 250, followed by a 350 with again, different axels, leaf springs, engines, gears, etc. It completely defies logic to be efficient and have the right parts ready to go.
  15. Apparently numbers aren’t your strong suit. Let’s try again… 250, 450, 350. But sure, let’s share the 150 videos ?
