To start off this thread in which I'll progressively add my thoughts on everything pertaining to the truck that I can think of, and obviously answer any questions from other members that I might be able to with any level of competency, I'll start by posti...  

Self-explanatory images, including an obligatory steering wheel shot ........ The bed is the 'perfect size' - six and a half feet long........ ...  

Need a bed cover to keep video cameras from documenting your “load”. 😇

Exactly

My Ford really proved it's value when towing.

until my eventual Florida cross-country trip ........

Get the tongue weight right and the ride is reeeeeally great. The extended out Sideview mirrors rock too!

Continuously adaptive shocks.... Leaf suspension on the rear axle........ In-cabin controls for the drivetrain and towing.... ...  

Good 'ol chemicals x)

Just earlier today I witnessed a woman striding along one of the most popular pedestrian streets in town (Montana Ave), smoking weed without a care in the world, oblivious to anyone and everyone around her x))....

Times, they are a changin’…

Mandatory wrist shot missing, otherwise it didn't happen

I was so obsessed with checking out all the details that I didn't wear a watch ffs ....

Front camera with the 360 degree camera on the side screen to the right-hand side.... Bed camera on the edge of the rooftop, integrated with the rear brake light.... One of the four-corner zoom camera views, this one evidently to the front right side of t...  

The ’Home' view.... These are my very first trip stats! Yes, that’s under 17mpg due to me 'lead footing it' for the entire 4+ hours of driving from the dealer, then to work, then home. Admittedly, it was all in heavy SoCal traffic........ Eco mode percent...  

Nice truck…the ride sitting high up must be really nice. Congratulations 🍾🥂

both exceedingly comfortable, as well as appropriately 'planted' while taking corners with a bit of 'oomph' . Ford's SYNC infotaiment system is truly one of the best in the business - intuitive, easy layout with everything you could possibly ask for, and ... 

I wholeheartedly agree! This is truly a 'house on wheels' .

positively stone-age next to this. However, I am most impressed with the interior, the interplay of leather, wood, aluminum. Very tasteful, easy on the eyes, beautifully finished. Enjoy your new ride! Cheers. Marc

It's astonishing just how much vehicle information tech has advanced in the last 4-5 years. I used to have a 2018 Toyota truck, and the difference in infotainment is just how you described it. Cheers, and thank you, Filip

Had two Tacomas (1st Gen, and most recent Gen), and one old 2010 Ranger (3rd Gen Ranger) previously........

...  

that one was among the last model years of production for the 15 or so year old chassis of the previous generation of the Tundra. Obviously, there's a reason why the chassis was kept running for so long . Cheers, Filip

Long since paid off the loan…ridiculously dependable…I only put about 4K a year on it if you load some weight in the rear axle in the winter it will go straight up a mountain with a couple feet of snow..aka…my driveway 🤣😂🥶🫣😬 ...  

Nice driveway Miles .

It’s equally effective to use Android Auto or Apple Car.... ....or simply.... ....opt for the in-vehicle SYNC navigation system with 3D mapping ’on the house'! Alarm system settings! Audio source selection.... My choice, ’The Wave' FM=) Sound balance etc....  

For now Cheers!! ...  

I actually contemplated getting an Aston now instead of a new truck, but the timing truly isn't favorable for me to make that decision at present! This great homage to traditional trucks, with the sublime hybrid V6 engine will serve every possible purpose... 

Thank you for sharing with us!

I already am immensely!

a surprise myself later today ....

These surprises usually are always very expensive!

Specifically with you in mind ....

For saving your right front rim🤣 nice ride, these loaded up trucks have come a long way. My friend had a top level f250 which is basically same as my navigator, he traded for LX570 and says he liked the f250 better.

The reason I opted for 18" rims instead of 20" ones is super obvious ....

Off-road truck perfection. The dealer had one in black inside the showroom, and it was marked up $35K ($86K retail). They said they sell every single one of them within days despite the markups! Brilliant stuff, thanks for the pictures, Filip

I sincerely appreciate your well wishes!! Cheers, Filip

Looks like a very nice ride. Congrats, enjoy it!

Wholeheartedly appreciate your sentiment! Cheers and thank you, Filip
