My '09 got some new shoes today

[Rigpig]

I've had my '09 XLT for about 2 weeks now, and I've been spending a lot of time with it. I've put approximately 1500 miles on it, and have done some mild customizing to stand out from the exact same truck down the street. I've had the windows tinted, installed a 3/2 ReadyLift, and had some 17" Tuff A/T wheels and LT285/70R17 BFG KO2s mounted this evening. I don't think I'll be mistaken for your average middle-aged soccer mom...

Lookin good! looks like it's hungry for mud with those rims and tires lol.

Looks good! I'm needing to be thinking about new tires for mine.....

 

[Rigpig]

Thanks guys. It rides like a truck now, with the 10-ply tires. I was kind of getting used to the soft ride of the stock configuration, since my work truck is that F-350 in the background and my DD pickup is a Tundra with 10-plies. Oh well, it's what I'm used to.

Rigpig that looks great! Is that blue the "Blue Jeans" color?

Thanks! Its Dark Blue Pearl Metallic, I believe. If my research is correct, Ford used this until 2012, and replaced it with Blue Jeans in 2013.

It is a great looking truck. I wish I could have gotten that color on my 17.

Thank you. My '14 Tundra CrewMax is a slightly different shade, but it's pretty close. Is it nerdy to want personal vehicles to match?
