How long did you drive without the pedal commander?

looks good. several questions:
how did you black out the grille and the tailgate?
what's the leveling kit?
what's the wheel? (size, offset)
what's the tire? (brand, type, size)

  1. How long did you drive without the pedal commander?
    Drove about 1k miles and just added the pedal commander today . I was able to set on eco settings to stay in electric easier and the sport and city option was immediate response on the throttle

My "first truck" was a 1978, Chevy Full Time 4x4 with a 454. I could outrun Porsches on twisty asphalt roads.. AND DID!

And the damn thing climbed like a Mountain Goat.

But... GM ain't what it used to be and I know where to go to get a 4x4 truck.

Apparently, so do YOU!

Congratulations.

Beautiful truck!!

FORD is AWESOME!

454 … what a beast of a 5 mpg unstoppable force … we used to have a dually tow vehicle and I could have put a litter of kittens through Harvard for what it drank …

I have much the same in mind (Bilstein and Hellwig with a detachable link for off-road) and Vossen makes a decent wheel. I'll probably go Patagonia or KO2 tires for winter/snow.
Anyway, nicely done, your Platinum looks like you actually use it, not just drive it to somewhere to "supervise" other people working. : )

Thanks for the info on Hellwig rear sway bar. It will be my next project.

No issues at all. Very straight forward. Rides a lot better than stock
