This is the only Silver Southfork I've seen; just found it yesterday after I ordered mine. I can't stop looking at it!
I did not order DRW, and this one has the optional "Filigree" etching into the leather which I did not want. But the pictures really show how unique and awesome the interior is. It blows away the other options on the market.
My 2nd gripe with Ford was you can't get the King Ranch or Limited in Silver. The 1st is the turning radius/diameter. Else I would have probably gone with the Ford.

I just got a new F-450 Limited and the turning radius is the best I’ve ever had in a big truck. I absolutely love this thing.

LMAO! I'll never forget that trip. Thanks again; and now you've opened yourself up; as I may join a few guys and go to COTA in Texas with the race cars this summer or next.

I can’t tell y’all how much I love this truck! The more weight you have behind it, the better the power delivery with the AISIN transmission. It tows REALLY well.
I had it tinted, pulled the BSM off of it, and also had it ceramic coated. The water literally jumps off the paint. I can’t wait for my lift to come in so the bigger wheels and tires can go on.

Looking sweet!! You're gonna love the Carli suspension upgrade. I just did a Thuren suspension on my 2006, and its night and day. Im debating doing the ceramic coating as well. I was told it lasts 5yrs, just wash it, no need to wax again. Being that mine is not a DD and stays in the garage, id imagine it would last longer tho. I got a quote for approx 1k to do it. Was told they wipe down entire truck with alcohol to strip any and all wax off and touch up any paint chips.

Truth be told, it's "the foster boat". It belongs to another OSO member and his wife who moved out of town for work, but still come back into town quite often. As such, it stays at our place, and we all enjoy the shyt out of that thing. Every time they come back into town, I've added more LEDs to it. ![Big Grin](/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Body Side Molding
(see post 34)
I actually paid extra for it (option), as I didn't know if I would like it or not. I thought it may break up the side of the truck and make it look less of a "work truck". But it was cheap material, put on with even cheaper foam tape, and it was not sealed on the ends. It had sand and grit already behind it, and some of the foam tape was already saturated and holding water against the body. I pulled off some of the badges as well.
