Default Hello board!
This is actually my first Ford vehicle. I used to be sold to GM, till now. Technically, i'm not an owner yet, since its still in the factory!

I'll have some questions about mods in the near future. Judging by the trucks i've seen around here, i think i'm in good hands.

It's the 4x2 sport model supercab in black. I wanted a manual transmission with a couple of the options, which seems to be unusual for anything ranger above XL, so I have to wait.

I also have a 1000$ credit towards Ford equipment, and I have no clue what to pick...

A/C, tilt steering, power options (windows, locks, keyless entry).

As for the 1k, i can pick pretty much anything in the Ford store, other than the bedliner plastic cover. I was thinking about the folding hard plastic cover.

What other options are there? I would go with a spray in liner. You can find cheaper nicer tonneau covers.

@RangerJustin: I'm getting the bed, and surely the cover from ford, because of the 3 years warranty that comes with them. I've seen a couple 3rd party parts, the beds were known to warp and covers were close to the price (some of equal quality, some with questionable origins), but Ford has the best warranties since it's located near my house and not in a totally different country (yay local businesses!).

@2lowhitey: I want to raise it, eventually. First i gotta pay for it ;P

And thank you STL, prestidigitizer and machine090767!

Due to the unions in the US, the train that was supposed to bring my truck is delayed by at least 2 weeks.
