Great to see this review, and Ford getting props. They keep saying it's not "all new" bc maybe frames are similar, or some nonsense? OK, it's not all new then, because it's made of steel! Most wholeheartedly agree, my 1st impression, after only 120 miles in mine, quiet cabin is immediately...

Woah, I just found the solution to the rust problem. Ford has provided a self lubricating undercarriage system in the guise of a slit cv boot! I have an appointment with service next week to check it out :clap: This, along with notifying them of the rusty drive shafts, my Thailand Paraller 235...

Check your spare tire for wheel size...mine's 16"...

Nez, mine took only 2 weeks by rail, then truck to my dealer in PA, quicker than I expected! Good luck...

Brought 6g Olaf home last week and left 5g Pepper at the dealership. I tool some pics in the garage, it fits basically the same as the 5g. I think the front end is closer to the front bc I didn't change the parking stops on the floor. They claim the front axle is more forward than the old...

Haha, @Sevokevo c'mon Kevin, if it's going from Detroit to Texas, it's going right thru the middle of the country, called the "Rust Belt", where old industries belched smoke and had rusty old steel plants! The rust will just jump off those old smoke stacks onto your shiny truck! 😆 lol...

Oh Noooooo...it's going thru the Rust Belt!!

Actually the earliest were probably like mine, ordered Day 1 back on 5/26/2023 and produced this year, Jan 08. I don't think any production trucks were made last year. It was probably on hold outside but at most, 2 months or so. The drive shaft is rusty but I doubt it's a real problem, just...

@Critical Habitat that must be Raptor only, I see my manual says spare may differ in size, either with a sticker (probably donut) for limited use and speed, and without sticker, most likely smaller size but ok for regular driving. I just don't know about running (3) 17" and (1) 16" tire! I'd...

Thanks Kyle! Android or Apple? My Samsung S21 wont connect to Android Auto with the Sync 4 😞. How's yours work, and what phone holder do you have? @KayaPayaPigDog

FYI weathering steel has a special chemistry containing copper to achieve a protective coating to discourage further rust, Cor-Ten is one trade name. I'm certain this is not the case with our driveshafts and nuts and bolts. My drives shaft is perfectly clean under a small decal they put there...

Just saw this topic and had to check mine. Picked up Fri with 57 miles, currently Easter Sunday with 63 miles (drove it home, and took the grandsons for a ride around the block yesterday). I was surprised with the rusty drive shaft and a couple bolts in the rear brake back plates. But 2 other...

I got the same Goodyear Wrangler Territory AT's, they look a bit more aggressive than the Hankooks on my 5g. Haven't been on highway yet, hope they're not too noisy. My Hankooks wore well, no complaints, I'm not an off-roader! Nice truck Gator, good luck...chomp chomp...

Hmmm...I'll have to check...

Yes, plus another 750 for some reason

Picked mine up today! Finally after 308 days of suspense... Ordered 5/26/23...Good news, it fits in the garage 👍...my Gator bed cover fits perfect, glad I took it off Pepper 🌶...I'll need to find a new adhesive strip for the front seal/weatherstrip. Also Husky mats fit👍...bed mat fits, but a 2"...

Just picked up my xlt today, and got the $1000 plus an additional $750, I guess bc I'm such a nice guy! Sticker was $44,795 and that's my x-plan price shown.

Ok, I went to look it over, and check the price and they weren't sure what the extra $750 discount was...was I military...no; was I EMT...no; was I recent college grad...hell no...so they said the sales manager must have found some extra rebate for me and not to question it. They did not forsee...
