Very nice. My likey.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Yeah I bought them paint to match based on the VIN so it was easiest to get them in Dirty Snow color.

As we were towing the trailer to go camping last night I was looking through the menus and options the truck tracks the miles towing each trailer I setup. I've towed our travel trailer 19.3% of the total miles on my truck.

9200ish miles total and almost 1800 towing
Re: Truck yeah! Dirty Snow Edition
That's pretty impressive IMO.

Re: Truck yeah! Dirty Snow Edition
Realizing just how much I tow with it is kinda making me regret not getting a F250. I found a used 7.3 gasser not too far away equipped how I like it ... 
Re: Truck yeah! Dirty Snow Edition
I dont think the 250's are as well refined of a truck. More boxy and clunky compared to the 1/2 tons.

Re: Truck yeah! Dirty Snow Edition
Yeah absolutely, I'd probably use it as a daily less than the limited amount I use my current truck. That being said I can't really afford to flush 15k down the drain by selling my current truck to go get a different truck

Re: Truck yeah! Dirty Snow Edition
It is not that you tow a TON - but you barely drive it otherwise so the percentage is high

Re: Truck yeah! Dirty Snow Edition
Oh you can get it on Lariats etc, if you pay extra for it. My buddy's 2020 Lariat has the 13th gen version of that grill from Factory, but he had to get the sport and black out packages to get itChris GTO TT wrote: ↑Wed Oct 22, 2025 4:35 pm Yeah it's always been weird to me Ford puts the best looking grille on the cheapest truck
