How do you like the intake? Any improvements in turbo noice or maybe more torque off the line. I have considered getting one but am unable to decide if it’s worth it. Always here very mixed opinions on air intakes.
I have the same intake. You can definitely hear it breathing. I didn't notice any turbo noise, though. The VAT mod I did does a good job of giving the sound of a mild BOV, though.

As far as performance, I did not notice any gains. I do have a full exhaust and a Livornois 93 octane tune, though. The only thing I noticed a night and day improvement with as far as performance goes was the tune. That woke the truck up in major way.

Got the builtright licence plate relocator installed today. Looks really nice and tidy and I am very happy and impressed with the quality of the materials. All the components are sprayed with bedliner rubberized coating. Really good work

But now the problem is that... I found out I have a block heater lol. Never noticed the cable before so now I have to figure out a way to hide it somewhere behind there. Any ideas? ?

How exactly does that mount? Looks great!

If you look over the tow hook, there are 2 screw holes which are not used by anything. That's where it mounts.

This is the instruction video I was sent. Very easy and straightforward to install

I put on a Bed Rug brand tailgate pad. a drunk buy off the internet.
the velcro sucked on the tailgate with the work surface. the ridges and ribs are right where the velco needs to be, and even then it seemed cheap, flimsy and un-secure.

SO.. I marked where the perimeter mount screws were for the work surface, punched some holes and used the same torx screws to hold the pad on.

I drew them down tight, but not overly tight and the screw heads are recessed below the pad.

so far so good. is it necessary? not really, but it does have a nice texture and seems a bit more finished than the plastic thing from Ford.

Buffed a scuff off my driver's side mirror...

There was a fender bender going the other direction pushing traffic over into my lane. Despite the other direction not having room to pass, they kept going and I had the width of a line to move over. Some A-hole with a Ram and extended mirrors went past in my lane and our mirrors met. I'm just glad it was a scuff that buffed off. Hopefully his mirror got wrecked since he couldn't wait.

While waiting in a drive-through line, I dropped something, and accidentally took my foot off the brake while retrieving it. I ran into the vehicle in front of me at idle speed and did this to my front bumper.

This happened last Friday and I was so mad at myself that I am only now posting about it. Luckily I have good insurance and no one was hurt.

Hey man it happens. I was driving my dads F-250 with the V-plow on it last winter, had just bought a new Carhartt jacket and started looking at it and unfolding it while stopped at a red light. Meanwhile my foot came off the brake pedal ever so slightly and the truck rolled forward without me noticing and I jammed the plow into the bumper of the person in front of me at idle speed. I was so angry at myself for how stupid that was, all to look at a coat. No damage to the F-250, it popped their backup sensor out and left a little dent on the Mazda.
