It lives!

Well, you can do short bits of driving it like you stole it now - just have to keep them short. You are supposed to run the engine thru its RPM range you know!

Congrats on finally getting it Jeff! Now the real fun begins!

Thanks, after the photoshoot and merging onto the highway, I can honestly say it has enough scoot to get out it's own way...and then some.

OUTSTANDING!!!
Congrats!! You have an awesome ride! Absolutely beautiful!
I might be wrong but I believe this is the first FX2 for a Ranger5G member.

Thanks!
I was a bit apprehensive as to how it would ride,I test drove a 2019 FX-4 last July and found the ride to be firm, but certainly not harsh.
IMO, this trucks ride is a bit more supple, but just as well planted as the 2019 was.
On the way home I got a thumbs-up from a new Taco owner, his truck had dealer plates on it as well.

Better get used to it. Yours is stunning!! I mean that.
I find when on the highways and byways, other trucks come up fast on my right and then slooowly pass, then scoot on. Hey, we must look like magnum PI in a Ferrari I guess.

wow - some things are worth wait

I would love to see that Red in the sunlight too - I bet it really pops in the sunlight. Kind of like my Platinum white - it really pops in the sun with the pearl and metal flake in it.

If I weren't so worried about seeing scratches in my paint from driving these narrow forest service roads, I would probably have opted for either the blue or the red you ordered. I really like the samples I've seen.

Wow! That color is stunning! Had I waited until 2020, I think that would have been my color of choice! From one chrome package Lariat SuperCab owner to another: Congrats!! She's a beaut!

I know all you guys and gals been waiting for the big unveiling, here it is...
Included are a few pics of the upholstery, the wrinkles on the bolsters are readily apparent, not a big deal because I've a set of Wet Okole seat covers on order.

I was debating as to which mod to do to it first, after driving it again this AM the choice is obvious, I will disable the blasted auto start/stop (ASS) feature asap.

Once again, a heartfelt "Mahalo Nui Loa", to each and every member on this outstanding forum for making this dream a reality. Without all the advice I was given (especially Ford's X-Plan program), this never would have come to fruition.

Indeed my three-year wait is finally over.

Enjoy!

Edit: For you eagle-eyed viewers, yes that is Diamond Head in the background, and no, the blue skies and clouds have not been Photoshopped in...lol
