This is a set of Fuel Forged FF19 wheels 22x10 with -25mm offset, if I remember correctly. Wrapped with 325/50/R22 Toyo Open Country AT III tires (approximately 12.8" wide).

This set came off my 2011 F250, which had fender flares, so this is a bit more wheel poke than my previous configuration. I'd estimate about 3" of wheel poke in these pictures.

I don't mind an aggressive stance, but still want a tasteful OEM plus look. Opinions?

Hi everyone. Bought my first Ford (2010 F-350 LB DRW) and first diesel a few days ago to eventually pull a travel trailer and haul me, my wife, two kids, and three dogs. Looking forward to making this “new-to-me” truck more of my own.

I have a 2023 Lightning Lariat, and I genuinely love the truck. When we bought it, we didn’t have a boat—but that’s changed. We picked up a boat last year and have now gone through a full season with it. I trailer it every time we use it.

For local ramps on the Chesapeake Bay, the Lightning works great. I can get there and back without needing to charge. The problem comes with longer trips—places like Delaware, Virginia, Pennsylvania, or running offshore in Maryland. On those trips, I have to stop and charge, which is a hassle when towing. I end up detaching the trailer in a parking lot, charging, then hooking everything back up. Some trips require 2–3 charging stops, and realistically I only get about 155 miles per charge while towing.

What should be a 6-hour round trip can turn into 9 hours, which isn’t exactly enjoyable.

That said, there’s still a lot I love about the truck. The power and acceleration are incredible. Charging at home is far cheaper than gas. The Lariat trim is comfortable and well-equipped. Overall, it’s been a great vehicle.

So this is where I go back and forth. The truck has about 35k miles, and I only owe $34k on it. Realistically, we’d only take these longer towing trips maybe five times a year. The practical side of me says to keep the Lightning, spend the ~$35k to finish paying it off, and just deal with a handful of longer travel days each year.

But the other side of me is tempted to switch to a gas truck—something like an F-250—so I don’t have to deal with the charging hassle at all. Honestly, if I had the boat first, I probably wouldn’t have chosen the Lightning, simply because of the limited towing range.

Financially, though, the switch is tough to justify. I’d likely get around $40k on trade (which stings, considering I paid $79k new), leaving me about $6k positive on the loan. But then I’m turning around and buying a $60k+ truck and starting over with a much larger loan. In the long run, I’m essentially doubling what I’ll spend on a truck—going from about $35k remaining to $60–65k again.

On top of that, the F-250 wouldn’t be as nice in terms of features unless I spent even more, and I’d be going back to higher fuel costs, oil changes, and general engine maintenance. The Lightning, by comparison, is incredibly low maintenance.

So it really comes down to whether the added cost is worth the convenience. I’d be paying significantly more for a less comfortable truck, just to gain range and eliminate charging stops a handful of times a year.

I know this is ultimately a personal decision, but I’d be interested to hear how others would think about it.

I did all the work I said I was going to do and this thing is an absolute beast. Best pulling truck I've ever owned. Hauls and rides like a dream.

2016 F350 XL 6.7 purchased at auction with 86k miles as a cab and chassis. Added flatbed and sent it to a mechanic. All good now. I have about $21K into it. How did I do?

Um curious what other payload and numbersF250/350 owner have and how your rear end behaves (squat) when loaded. I pull a 2021 33TS WILDWOOD (38FT) travel trailer. Tongue weight is 1k. Trailer GCWR is 8k-ish lbs and up to 11k-ish lbs loaded , thanks !

After noticing my new 2026 was missing the rubber insert that normally sits in the narrow section of the center console, I decided to design and make my own. I honestly can’t believe Ford started leaving this piece out, especially since my 2024 came with it from the factory. From reading through posts on here, it sounds like a lot of 2025–2026 owners are noticing the same thing.
I used that section all the time in my 2024 for smaller items, and with the open holes on the 2026, everything just falls through now. So my wife and I decided to create a clean OEM-style solution and started making them ourselves.
We’ve put together an Etsy listing for anyone interested. Right now I have:
• “SUPER DUTY” version
• “TREMOR” version using the factory Tremor-style font
Currently available in black PLA, but I’m open to custom colors/materials if anyone wants something different. I’ve personally had the black PLA SUPER DUTY version installed in my truck in the South Florida heat for over a month with zero issues.
If anyone’s interested, feel free to message me. Appreciate the support!

I finally saved up my pennies and ordered my Chandler Truck Assesories (pic from their website) full grill guard front bumper. No winch yet but that’ll be maybe next year. I also got the fairlead flip-up tag bracket. Plan on using stock fog lights as seen in CTAs picture and adding some 4x4 pod lights and a 9” light bar once the bumper is installed. After some exhaustive research, this was the best fit for me. After talking to the sales rep last week, it should be delivered in 5-10 business days which is pretty quick. I’m having it shipped to work and a coworker and I are going to install it on an upcoming Saturday. We have all of the tools at work and access to a forklift to hold it in place while we bolt it up.

Where all my CCLB boys and girls?? She’s long, but I’m a sucker for 4 doors and an 8ft bed!

Hi all, i just got my 07 350 SRW back from getting studded and other work. A part of the work was to fix memory steering issues that i have been fighting for months… Long story short ALL components in steering and suspension have been replaced along with 2 redhed gear boxes.. truck has brand new tires less than 800 miles on them holds alignment but likes to favor left and when i bring it back to correct, it then wanders in the lane.. at highway speeds it almost feels like front end is light with an empty bed. It has dual stabalizers and i upgraded the worn factory one to a bilstien.. shop loosened and re-torqued entire front end pulled axles double checked by new u joints drove with and without stabilizers on it (no real difference) … owner is at a loss he put 2 redhed in it, he was hesitant to do a third… told me to drive 500 miles and see if things may need to settle… if anyone has had this issue before any insight is greatly appreciated

One of our favorite color trucks to build - especially with a full matte PPF application. Exclusively done to our matte Avalanche color trucks, we wrapped the headlight bezel in matte PPF as well, really tying the front end together nicely.
