finally pulled the trigger on a 2025 F150 PowerBoost. Traded in my 21 PowerBoost, had almost 90k miles and almost out of warranty so felt like it was a good time to upgrade

sad to see the 21 go but it’s been a good truck. Excited for the 25. The wife said no mods buttttt we don’t need to tell her when we do!

Cool! Notice any power/ride difference going from the 20s to 18s?

Rides smoother to me so far. I also had bilsteins all the way around and a rear sway bar so it’s a much different ride, not bad just different

18's are I nice, I kind of wish I had downsized to 18" wheels originally

That's been my experience too. My 21 had 18s + the powerboost and it rode super smooth compared to a buddy's platinum PB. Also think the regen is more effective with the lighter wheel.

The rear 4600 bilsteins I have now on mine might be a better compromise than the 5100s for a stockish height truck with lighter wheels. Just have to get over the color...

Yup. Luckily after a coating of fluid film they've collected a ton of dirt. Almost black now. Enjoy the new ride!
