Just bought a 2012 SCREW, hopefully I'll get it over here before new years.
This is my first Ford and my first truck.
Lux Package, Moon Roof plus Sony sound system. No NAV, but I'll get a Kenwood or something later. Gotta get that front cam!

My previous rig was a FJ Cruiser with 3.5in lift and 33's back in Nor Cal. So i'm kind of used to nice slow trails around the Tahoe area.
A Raptor in the desert is going to be a huge change of pace. But until it shows up, i'll go back to trolling for info.

Thanks for all the great info so far. Like Bump Stop kits and setting her to mid perch.

definitely a nice kit, but since im a pioneer guy, i wont use it.

Can I change the maps on the Pioneers? No use getting NAV if I cant update the map to my location.
I know how to do it on the Kenwoods. Thats the main reason I was going that route.

Congrats on the purchase, seems to be getting popular over in your area!

Congratulate me when it arrives!
I've seen a few. And none looked like the had ever been off the pavement.
I need to find a garage to do my mods now.
