Full set of TuxMats. I considered Weathertech HP and Maxpider 3D but decided on something a little different. Almost a perfect off-black shade match to the off-black Lariat Sport interior. They come with all kinds of clips but I let them get good and hot out in the 90 degree sun on concrete and they laid in nicely. I'll give it a few weeks and see if any clips are needed. They do cover more than any mats I looked at and so far I'm pretty impressed. Foam layer inside is supposed to also provide some sound deadening, not that I felt it needs it. Got to me in MI from Canada in just 3 days, right around $210 shipped for the set.

Oh wow! I really like the amount of coverage those offer. Never heard of them before.

I hadn't either but after a few dozen Google searches for the other brands a TuxMat ad showed up. I had the Ford rubber set before and it's big downside is that they stop short of the plastic door sill plate so stuff collects in the valley in between. I think Weathertech and others would have solved that gripe for me too.

Yes, Weather techs were supposed to be included in my deal but someone dropped the ball and forgot to order them. So they ended up giving me the Ford Accessories liners and I am finding the same thing you mentioned about the space between the seat and door sill.

Having received my Iowa Transit Title from Granger Ford this morning I was able to make the TX tax man happy and install my permanent 'hard tags' (y)

And oh boy, I am really loving my new truck with the running boards described in a previous post here :)

Speaking of hard tags...

My front plate bracket (needed here in NJ or risk a ticket) came off twice when I was washing (a few weeks ago and today). There are no screws or holes in the bumper which is nice but mine just felt pretty loose for some reason (the heat loosened it?). The brackets didn't seem bent/broke nor did the mounting points.


Didn’t want this to come off on the road or worse break the bracket this attaches to (2 vertical plastic β€˜pillars’ by the lower air vent, went with a mishimoto tow hook mounted bracket (not sure if worth the price or if I should have done a cheaper amazon one that someone else has posted in this thread)

Had to mount the plates inverse of the instructions to lower it the few inches to avoid triggering the front sensor (thanks Raptor forums for this idea):

The instructions have you mount the big part on the top and the lower β€˜clamping’ piece on the bottom, but just put the clamping piece on the top to lower it. I don’t do any off-reading so would rather give up a free tow hook (easily removable with 2 10mm wrenches) then lose my plate and have to deal with the DMV or someone driving around a car with my plate.

Today I got my bedrug installed.

In my '17 I had the one with the tailgate cover, but after removing it once to wash the bed, it never stuck again to the velcro on the tailgate. The company didn't help me besides sending out velcro to replace what was on the tailgate, but it was the velcro on the bedrug itself that appears to have not been working anymore. (my fault, I didn't buy from an authorized reseller, so what help they gave me was ok....I guess)

Anywho, since I have the work surface I figured I would go without the tailgate part and try that out so here you go. I'll have to see how I like it. I feel like I'm gonna miss the tailgate part for sliding stuff in and out of the bed.

if that is an issue I'll either get the standalone tailgate or just repurchase the one with the tailgate part.

What I need to do to my 21 Lariat F150 PB. Teaching a teenager to drive and using 21 PB. Doing urban, residential, interstates and rural areas for the required 50 hours after drivers Ed. One of the issues that continues to pop up is his relying on the dash speed limit that the truck identifies for that road. Unfortunately, on some of the rural roads and even private lanes in the rural areas the dash shows 55 mph as the limit. He takes that information as gospel and tries to drive that speed on slippery, very narrow and hilly roads and paths. Is there a way to turn off the dash designated speed limit number?

IMO ^that's^ the problem your continuing driver training needs to address.

Your young driver will eventually be on his own and face instruments with speed limit indicators as well as roadside signs that need to be 'adjusted down' in certain conditions - they need to learn that judgement now, and hiding the indicators on their training vehicle won't help with that. No one says driver education or learning is easy.

Just sayin' ..... for your consideration and your learning driver's benefit.

Totally agree that learning to drive is a lengthy and accumulation of experience and information. However, I'd prefer that he doesn't have a $72,000+ vehicle providing him with false and misleading information at this stage of learning. This age group has grown up with electronic information that seems to be totally acceptable to them without any use of common sense or gut feelings. I have no problem with the system reading misinformation but would like to reduce or hide until he has more driving seat of the pants experience. I tell him when not posted in residential areas 25 is speed limit unless posted otherwise. But he reads the speedometer that last read 45 on the entry road to subdivision and he believes that is the appropriate speed limit. I would like to hide the electronic misinformation and teach him to deduce speed by the arena he is driving in.
