In honor of my 500th post, I decided I'd finally post a build thread to get some feedback and ideas.

2013 Oxford White FX4 w/3.55 gears, Lux 402A, Nav/Moonroof, Factory Remote Start, 18" Wheels

I've had difficulty picking a name, and I had a parent (my wife is a teacher) call her 'Snow White'. I'll just shorten that and call her 'Snow'. I like, because it sounds better. One of her other friends drove us to and from the airport in it and called her "Moby Dick"; but she drives a car (a Subaru - shh!).

Traded this:

Ready for the Christmas Eve trek. Dogs in the back...innertube in the window to throw heat back. They stayed nice and toasty for the trip. Me, the wife, brother and sister in law plus 3 (yes 3) Labrador retrievers.

Beginning temps at about 0*F down to -38 at the lowest. Ended the trip at -36 and 15.6 MPG.

Good Lookin truck man, I have been wondering how she looks with the cap and the thule cargo holder on top.

Seems pretty stable. Drove 350 miles and caught a few gusts in the beginning that didn't really feel any different than if it weren't there.

More cornfussed than ever, now...
You know...a bike inner-tube...put air in it and it closes the space and keeps out all that cold air!
 
AK, did those Rigids make it up there yet, or did the UPS guy freeze to death on side of a road somewhere? Lol

Hopefully I'll be back to install the new lights and the HID upgrade in a week or two.

I will! I can't wait to see the difference, and hopefully it's as easy as they say to pull the covers.
