Fight me bitch.

Jake Wrote:Nice! I also like that color combo. sunroofs in anything are awesome, and the truck does actually use the ABS and trailer brakes (because you have the Ford brake controller built in) to combat sway if it detects something funny going on. Should still get weight distribution/sway control if you do an enclosed though.

I thought the two tone was ugly on all the F150s until I saw this one. Not sure what did it but it works well.

I swear I'm going to forget about the sunroof and realize it one day. I'll have one of those "oh yeah I have this" thoughts.

Good to know on the sway control. Didn't realize it because it doesn't specifically list it in the options. I'll have to check that out. Would the brochure talk about that?

Weird, I thought only the FX4 had the skid plates. That may have been the case for MY2011 and things changed toward the final years of the 11th-gen. Given yours is the last year, I wouldn't be surprised if they added them to anything with 4WD.

Trying to remember about the sway control. I think I was flipping through the owners' manual and it said something in the towing section. It's not constantly correcting for sway, it's more like ABS where if you get too far out of whack, it will step in and try to help - I think it shows a message in the dash screen. It can modulate the caliper of each truck wheel combined with the trailer brakes (which are an all-wheels-or-nothing deal) to haul it down.
