You put your tank in yet or are you getting a bigger one?
You also need a set of train horns.

Oh yah!! I think that was one of the first things Ginger said. I'm not a fan of them. Never used them on the last truck. That's why I didn't order them from the factory. There are a lot of after market versions out there. Just need to find the one that appeals to me.
Priority #1. Get a hitch installed. Can't do much without that.
Tomorrow's project.

You need to start posting some pics of that new Ford. You have had to do some mods already.

We have been wanting to get to a VA rally for a long time. And then off to The MD rally.

HA! Without running boards on the SD neither the DW or the dog would make it in! I have to hoist the dog in the back as it is

Baylee and Regis are hoping for a play area to share with Lexi - let them all run like nuts

Installed Reese Rail adapter. What a pain in the A**. It was so far out of adjustment, it took forever to install. I'm still not completely satisfied with the fit. I'll find out more when we hit the road.
Walker I feel your pain. I have that style adapter also. I removed the hitch from the adapter and worked on adjusting the adapter close to an hour. Once it was in everything worked great. I just pulled mine out to access the full bed space and I have to admit it was considerably easier than when the hitch was locked to bolted down rails. Travel Safe.

Yeah, the YouTube videos make it look so easy. Every puck had 1/8"-1/4" of play in them. This is the first Reese product that I am not satisfied with. It was marred and scratched in several places. All the cotter pins were not put in properly and made them vitally impossible to get out without destroying them. The torque nuts were tightened so much that the supplied wrench was useless. Had to make a trip to Tractor Supply this morning to get a 1" open end + cotter pins.

Couldn't get them to throw in the RAM puck hitch. I beat down the dealer a good bit on the price. And even at dealer cost, the factory hitches are high priced. So decided on the adapter. After a year or so (and my wallet cools) I might try one of the Anderson style gooseneck hitches
