Messing around with some custom wheel well covers.

Because of the lift, the factory ones don’t quite cover up the shock components and conceal the opening going up onto the engine.

I finally pulled the trigger on updating to Sync 3.4 after having a new Fusion rental car last week.

I’m waiting to see if 5 Star has a Black Friday special again this year and I may go for a tune. Mostly just want to change the shift points. I hate the 3-5 skip shift still, and I’d rather it not rush to the next highest gear quite so quick. Sport mode holds gears too long and shifting is a bit harsher than I’d like.

How do you like it over sync 3? Anything new that was missing on sync 3 or just a looks update?

It’s got some better CarPlay integration that I liked; before I think I was forced to use Apple Maps but can use google maps now, for example. I do prefer the UI to the old one as well. Others say it’s faster as well but I haven’t noticed anything ground breaking personally. Overall it’s a quick and easy update that’s worth the little bit of time it takes. Took 28 minutes once I got in the vehicle.

Finally got around to tackling the bling on the front grill. Ran out of painter tape was planning on doing the chrome by fogs / tow hook area but guess it will wait for another day.

Soundshield and Console Vault complete.

Hey Howelsen or anyone else, saw this post on the console vault but I'm curious if anyone has tried this one: https://realtruck.com/p/e-g-console-lock-vault/egc-7045-1000-17/

I reached out to the manufacturer as this states it fits for F150, and they stated they've had folks get it to work in the 4th gen Expy, but many have had issues as well. I really like this design better as it doesn't occupy the entire console, would really like to be able to use one side for non-secure items, and have a secure side for obvious reasons.

I also wish there was one that was biometric, with the USB ports in the center, would be an easy one to connect and charge the sensor with (think Li-ion battery to power sensor).

Here's another link from the mfr. https://egclassics.com/products/console-safe-half-box

Thanks!
