    Got it today! Everything I expected and more. It's massive. Love the power and it sounds very good for a V6. Feels a lot like sitting in the Gen1.

    A big thank you to all the early build guys who have shared information thru out this process. Seems like we will be getting our trucks soon and the journey will come to a end. When we ordered (some of us back in July) we all thought first come first serve would prevail. Well it sure as hell didn't work out that way. Now we hear whining from guys when they don't have there trucks they ordered in October, November or December!! That being said mine will be arriving by 1/16 and I'll post pics then not be involved in the forum much. Thanks again to all the early build guys and a special shout out to the MAS guys and especially Intell PM me when you get time!!

    That was a terrible post, I meant to say isn’t the front plate going to restrict the air flow to the inner cooler ? Did Ford test with the front plates on ?

    given the large upper grill and the plate only partially covers the lower grill i dont think its going to be an issue. maybe if ur going to do a couple hours of BAJA desert running might not be a bad idea to remove the plate but i would be surprised if it affected airflow very much.. .02 worth

    I have a question for those who received their vehicle. I opened my tailgate for the first time yesterday and it slams open. Isn't there supposed to be a hydraulic damper on it? I have 802a package and tech package both.
