Finally got the Eibach Leveling Springs, Beadlocks and 1.25" spacers installed on Wifey's daily driver. Checked the truck with a torpedo level on the running boards and bed rails and it's dead level now. The Eibachs tightened up the ride slightly. Feels more like our other F150 and less like my old 1976 Lincoln. She never got used to the floaty feeling and likes the new ride much better. There's no mall she can't tackle now.

Picked up this used gem while in Austin—a backup to my primary car-jacking deterrent system. The holster sits horizontally on my belt—very comfortable to wear driving/motorcycling (lean build, no belly hindering access). Prefer 45 colt to 410 buckshot in this little guy.

NOTE: I am an optimist. I always expect the best, yet prepare for the unexpected.

Winchester .410 PDX would be quite the blast out of that mini hand cannon. I think there's three disks and 12 pellets.

I don’t get it @KAH24 ...what happened to the Raptor?

@MAMiller44

Candidly, other than a few family road trips—it is the “LX/GX”, thus far.

Ford Dealer Service at 35k (after 4 mo@ 4K miles on full synthetic of stop/start, drive thru, groceries, random tooling)—which never heat the fluids/oil:

-Oil & Filter: Motorcraft full-synthetic
-Tire Rotation: Falken WildPeak AT3W doing well
-Cabin Air Filter: To me it is worthwhile

T-case, front/rear diffs were done by Ford a few months ago—as I bought the old girl used.

Took my 19 in for some minor warranty items:
Trailering gives faults on dash about trailer disconnected/trailer connected, and turn signal faults
Mild rattle at cold start for 3-4 min (sounds like wastegate rattle--don't know if they'll be able to do anything about it). It's not phasers.
Sloppy shift into 4th about every 1/20 shifts (guess I'm hoping they'll reflash the TCM)

I asked for a loaner and followed up on it closely, and they got me a loaner. It's a 2021 Explorer limited, and I'm pretty happy with it. It's little 2.3L will go!
