Rear wheel gap gone. Just need an alignment and it'll finally be picture time. Cannot wait!!

Edit: not sure why it posted three times. Maybe my phone is excited about the new konis and sportlines as much as I am haha

No, we purposely didn't get that package because it came with those god awful decals on the side, and the red stripes seats were a little too much. He chose the black on black on black, loaded everything, plus the 20" dark wheels. Sexy. Ecoboost v6 of course

That's what I have. FX4 Luxury package. I like it but not sure how many more years I can justify driving around in a mini aircraft carrier, even with the eco boost.

These are very luxurious and easy to drive trucks. great for long highway trips. Cup holders EVERYWHERE lol

When did the FX4 turn into a luxury package?

It used to be an off-road package ...

Oh, that's right, nobody off-roads 4wd vehicles these days ...

It was always that way. It was the trim right below Lariat, but with sportier styling and Rancho shocks. It always came fully loaded, but with a more body color/black/gray/red theme versus the Lariat's chrome/tan/earth tone theme.

Nice truck for sure. I like the FX4 trucks.
I'm kind of torn between the stripe like you mentioned, but I do LOVE the red piping on the half leather/half Alcantara seats.
I absolutely hate the interior of the reg cab, such an ugly and cheesy interior. I would have to get the supercab, which I'm not crazy about.
And of course,...I would go 5.0.

no, the FX4 plus Luxury package. in 2011 it was about extra bells and whistles such as nicer dash, console, and 800 watt stereo. Just a step above the fx4.

I seldom off road my truck, but use the 4x alot during winter when i head up country to the parents. It's a great truck for hauling my bikes and my dogs. off the lot, these trucks aren't really designed to go 'off roading' without some changes lol

Gave a brand new Camaro SS owner a hurting when we were getting on the freeway

Poor kid still had dealer plates and everything. Those automatic Camaros(L99 equipped; for you guys that know chevy engines) are slow.

Also, new **** for my shifter handle. Couldn't stand the bulky T-handle, and wasn't gonna keep the carbon fiber "*****" on my car, so I went with a plain ****. I activated by simply pressing it down.

I had to prototype a spring-operating lock that wouldn't let me press it down without engaging the brake pedal.

Going to add a leather boot to hide the rod.

Ohh, just someone that doesn't matter....jk . It honestly did look like that lol, you only confirmed my suspicion . I meant to post a reply about it but forgot haha.

No way was I going to keep that ugly thing, just wanted to see if I liked the idea of a different handle before I bought something. I have so many parts in my garages, so I can usually find some temporary parts to throw on a car.

I will say, I wish Ford would have used the '13-'14 automatic shift ***** from the get-go. I've honestly never owned a car with this big of a T-handle lol.

Have you seen the 05-09 auto? It looked like the Hummer H2 handle.

Just did a google search since I've never been in any other mustang other than the 2011+ models, or an H2 for that matter.

That's one of the ugliest I've ever seen lol, but that hummer H2 has gotta be a top contender for fugliest handle lol. It's so big and thick!
