ThreeLRanch Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I was going to wait until the end of the year to buy one but I found this one and couldn’t pass it up at the price and since the 22’s are so sketchy on when they might possibly start to get built I had to make the move on this one. I had a 19 xlt and from that to this is a lot better change and the ride quality is a ton better as well.Now to decide on wheels and tires and if I want to do a level , no lift because I pull a fifth wheel all the time. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUEC135ELEVATOR Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 That is a sharp truck! Love the grey and black colors together. It's not the standard looking truck, looks tough and sporty at the same time.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got tired of all the chrome and wanted something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Required on trucks wider than 80”. Supposedly they originated on chicken haulers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LED Roof Marker/Clearance Lights (592) are standard on Chassis Cab, F-350 DRW & F-450 models, optional on other Super Duty pickup models. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got them on my 2014 King Ranch, and also installed amber lights on the front (black plastic under bumper) and above the side steps. Also put some red lights (not a brake or signal strip) between the tailgate and rear bumper. All are operated from two upfitter switches. Love all my Chicken Lights!!! Sharp Truck by the way! ?

jred2255 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I would happily pay a $5k premium for this color on my '22 F450. It's perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcintx Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 That is a good looking color. I was disappointed when I found out that they discontinued it for 2022. I ended up with the new Atlas Blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes is was disappointing to see that they was no longer making this color and I’m not sure why it’s about the best looking color IMO , a lot better than the sliver for sure.
