2022 F150 Lariat V8 aka ZeroDark30 Build!

This is my 22 502A packaged Lariat w/BAP (Black Appearance Package) 4x4 that I have been modifying slowly since I purchased it in Aug 2022. It is agate black in color. Truck was ordered in Dec 2021 and I waited 8 months for it to show up. This is a 100% tarmac King. It's not daily driven, but I do drive it frequently.

Below is my current modification list:
Performance stats:
This truck put down 924whp/650wtq to the wheels on a Dynojet dyno in early January 2024, pump E85. Best run to date is a 10.29@134mph at the dragstrip. In Mexico it has run as quick as a 10.16@135 and has gone as fast as a 10.63@136 Dragy verified! The truck is 100% full weight, meaning, no deliberate weight reduction has been made to make it quicker/faster. It weighs ~5,560lbs with me in race trim with the "drag pack" on. It also has all the stock emission control devices in place! Yes, stock headers and stock cats!

Next:

1. LSD: Either the Yukon or Eaton Tru Trac.
2. Trans clutches.

Looks very nice! What tires are those?

Looking sharp!

How do you like the RC tonneau cover? I’m supposed to get my “23 in Nov and was just looking at the RC today.

Also, I also did Lariat with BAP ... went back forth on black, vs silver vs smokes quartz ... your pics make me happy I chose black.

How do you like the tint on the windshield? Ceramic? Thanks

I do 50% llumar on all of my vehicle windshields. The windshield is already ceramic
You can spend more, but ya don't get more. You don't notice it visually, but man is the cooler interior quite noticeable when combined with a 20 or 25% front windows.

1st week

This is a bad shot because of condensate on the windshield....

I really have no complaints. I mean, just go on their site and read the reviews from verified buyers. It's a good bang for your buck. I saw someone on FB review it so I decided to try it. It's solid....nice and firm, doesn't interfere with the opening/closing of my tail gate, sits flush and keeps the back relatively dry. No complaints really at a price point starting under $300!

Black is awesome, it just gets dirty really fast. I wash my truck several times a week. I am in Oklahoma so it's windy and dusty here.

It's barely noticeable from inside. I had a friend of mine who was riding with me and I told him the windshield was 50% tinted and he was shocked. He never noticed it at all. You notice it way more from outside (as you can tell from the photos) because the rest of the windows are dark but it's fine....even at night. If you have someone who has it....check it out for yourself and make the judgment call. Of course...your local laws should be considered too.

Not really a build per se just a couple mods on my 22 502A Lariat. I have owned it a little over one month even though I ordered it in December.
1. Ceramic tint (5% all around and 50% windshield.)
2. 18" Method 314s on 33" Kendas.
3. Rough Country soft roll up tounneau cover.
4. Removed rear blocks, have 1" drop shackles from MaxTrac (installed...see last photo in gallery)
5. Dickeys heavy duty liners from Autozone ($39 haha!)
6. Removed hideous "4x4" stickers.
7. LED license plate light bulb upgrade.
8. Corsa Extreme dual rear exit catback

I don't think I am doing anything else to it. I am going back and forth whether I should get some mud guards for it. What do y'all think?
