where did you get the chromed out 150 stamp on the tailgate? VERY nice ride though
I have had them for a couple of months and thought they were from Amazon, but nothing shows up under past purchases. I wish I could give you an answer but really have no information.

Mine took 18 weeks.

UPDATE:
I did a search in my old emails and found it. Limitlessparts.com

What kind of tires do you have(size, brand)? Are they loud (i.e., you can hear them with the windows up)?

I want an aggressive look, but I don't want to hear them when I'm on the highway. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I got 2021 Lariat that FINALLY shipped today!
BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO2, OEM size 275/60 R20

They are not loud at all, nice aggressive look without the noise of a mud tire. They are heavy though (56lbs), load range D, about 10-12 lbs heavier than the factory tire. So you will see a slight drop in fuel efficiency, but they are great for towing.

If you don't need the towing capability, the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac tires are a great option and only (49lbs). so you should maintain your fuel mileage. and they are slightly less expensive than the BF Goodrich.

Paid for and picked up the new one today. This was the buy back set up from Ford.

Briefly: The rusted 2021 Lariat F-150 truck I purchased and drove home with was January 30th, 2021. Due to my filing the case over and over again with Ford on the rust and also had to bust their nuts, they (Ford) finally agreed to buy it back.

They gave me back all my money that I paid for the first Lariat EcoBoost 3.5L less approx. $450 for mileage which when I turned it in was just over 6,000 miles. Very petty IMHO given what they made me go through.

The new Lariat is the PowerBoost 3.5L model with the 7.2kw genset vs. what I had which was the 3.5 Ecoboost. Also added the complete extended warranty for 8 years 150,000 miles.

Virtually the same truck as I originally purchased but that one was in stock so i took it as outfit, but since I had to order the replacement one this time I ordered what I wanted to replace it.

I now have the Lariat PowerBoost with the following options:

4 x 2 SuperCrew with 5' bed
502A Package
Star White Metalic with Stone Gray Accent
Black Leather seats
3.5L PowerBoost Full Hybrid comes with the 30 gal. fuel tank
7.2 Pro Power
20" Chrome Wheels with the Goodyear All Season Tires
Tow Technology Package
Power Deployable Running Boards
Ford Co-Pilot 360 Active 2.0 Prep
Interior Work Surface
B&O Unleased Sound System
Power Tailgate
Wheel Well Liner
ToughBed Spray In Bed Liner

Did not want the SunRoof/moonroof which was on the first one.
Being in Miami, FL I do need more sun or heat.

I did add the Ford Protect program for 8 years and 150k miles, had that on the first rusted one but cancelled it and have received a refund on the balance and I also added the exterior / interior protection to keep it looking good and have some additional warranty protection too.

They threw in 2 yeas of Maintenance:)
They will move over my Retrax Roll bed cover and the Bed Extender when I return to get the exterior treatment as their staff was not in to do that today.

Was able to use the new one today drove maybe 40 miles and got approx. 25 mpg. Of course I am taking it easy for the first 500 miles to let it break in. I do expect to get better mpg with this one vs. the 3.5 Ecoboost which was giving me just under 17 mpg but I do have a heavy foot and often do 80 on the Hwy. Of course today we did not get over 60. I am loving it when the engine shuts off and we are still driving with 0 RPM's showing. Got to love that.

The old one and new one look identical except for the "PowerBoost Badges.

As far as rust goes had the Dealer Ford of Kendall put it up on the lift for my rust inspection and other than some rust on one of the steel exhaust hangers that look like a S there was no rust anywhere else.

I am happy and feel that Ford although finally came through in doing the "Right" thing for me as a customer they made it very, very hard, and time consuming...not good customer relations at all. The selling dealer Meto Ford of Miami also provided "horrible" customer service but on the other hand the Ford of Kendall dealer provided excellent customer service on this transaction.

Ok go it back from dealer with the "Nano" protect coating and took some photos on my driveway as the truck is very clean.

You'll love that 5.0! I thought I'd miss my 2.7 Ecoboost, but now I'm kinda like EcoWho? ?

The Carbonized Gray is a color I didn't think I'd like but I saw it in person when I got mine and was just like "wow, that's pretty" even with the dirt on it. After they detailed it, I didn't even wanna drive it!

Thanks! If I really don't like the sound of the sub (I'm a little older now and might now care.... 41) then I plan on replacing it with a small shallow box kicker with built in amp. Someone had one on here and it fit in the same location area.

That's good to know. 2 guys at work have the previous gen 3.5 liters, my buddy has a previous gen 5.0, and we have a 2016 work truck that has the 5.0. I've just never really been a V8 guy and was hoping for the 2.7 better mileage. But after ready post on this forum with the 2.7 mileage, I don't think it'll be that far off. My last full size truck was a 1984 Chevy work truck with no options, lol. It had an inline 6 with 3 on the tree and owned it from 1996 to 1997. It was my first truck. I then had an 84 S15 4x4 with the 2.7 (crap engine) for a year and a 1998 Chevy S-10 with the 4.3 and 3.42 gears for 20 years. Got a little side tracked there.

My 2.7 was a 2018. The change in gas mileage is minimal for me. I think when I was driving it before I got a company vehicle, I was driving around 25 mines a day for work and I was averaging like 19 mpg, and this one is at 14.5 mpg, but just city driving. Before I was doing about half city half highway and on Eco mode.

I'm excited for the first road trip in this one too see how it compares, but from everything I've seen, it's a minimal change.

My first vehicle was a 1981 GMC Sierra with the 305 and big ol steel bumpers that got 8 mpg. Pretty much V8's since then with a 2000 Silverado V6 and a Wrangler thrown in there for anything smaller than a 5.3, until now. Honestly, I didn't miss a V8 in the 2.7, but accelerations in this one puts a different little grin on my face I haven't had since my '06 GTO. Lol.

Got my Lariat last Wednesday night then left town for a trip (via air) the following morning. Drove it home from the dealership and parked it in the garage. I am back and getting acquainted with it today. So far zero problems & I like everything about it.
Here is a family portrait. An '03 (the gen 10 great, great, great grandfather) is being replaced by a '21 Lariat. The '03 is being sold to my next door neighbor. He's run his work truck into the ground and the '03 will get him through a few more years. The '03 has only 74k miles on it so it should serve him well.

Picked mine up last week! My first truck and I love it! Took the FX4 sticker and ecoboost badge off - like it even better now.

Do you have a picture of where the ecoboost badge was? The dealer told me there was a hole that it secured it so I left mine on.

It doesn’t have a hole for sure. I used floss and peeled the adhesive off as much as I could by hand then used goo gone on the rest. Can’t tell it was ever there.
