The thing I can respect the most is doing all the installation work yourself. I know how tough it can be and you’ve done so much. Truck looks great! Definitely worth the money put into it! 👍🏼
The katzkins are my favorite mod that I’ve done to my F150. Black with stone stitching and perforated inserts. Great video by the way, now I’m gonna spend more money!! Thanks.
Pretty darn awesome. Just bought my very first truck a few weeks ago and it’s the exact same color like yours too. Thinking of doing some mods to starting with a leveling kit.
Some upgrades I like, some I don’t find them to be worth the money. But the important thing is that YOU like it and enjoy driving it around. I put a 6” lift on mine with 35x20s and I love the truck. Best part is...you have the title on all three. Now that’s the impressive! Congrats.
Real talk, and in my opinion you did a great job. I’ve only done a few exterior modifications to my 2022 F150 XL and I’ve already exceeded $7k. Great video btw.
Anything worth doing is worth overdoing. I enjoyed doing a lot of mods to my fx4, sold it and bought a Raptor, started modding all over again, it’s like a disease. Lol Your truck looks good.
So glad I wouldn't settle for anything less the a lariat 502a package and fx4 ! Not a knock on what you did but sounds like you have alot more time then I do !
The beauty of a Ford truck and a disposable income.... I ordered an Atlas Blue Metallic 2022 F150 XL 5.0L 4x4 8' bed - black door handles, bumpers etc.(no chrome) 101A power pkg, max tow/payload(upgraded wheels), elec 3.73 diff, 36 gal fuel tank, skid plates, 40/20/40 cloth seats, vinyl floor, workstation center console, front bumper Baja Designs flood/drive pocket lights & reverse lights, black heavy duty tow bumper, rear wheel well covers, heavy duty Ford rubber splash guards($400!), Yakima HD Overland adj racks, spray in bed liner and the SPD axle dump 304 stainless tucked exhaust with type 2 resonator - all in for 50k plus mods around 5k total. Next year will be a Roush cold air intake. You spend your money how you want to and I did it my way out here in Oregon - hopefully this aspect of American life never gives way to the Green Nazi's of Killjoy.
@@TheCarCrazyGuy I should go back and look for your other vids if you noted your issues - I hope it wasn't a long list. My truck goes into production this week. With few if any bells or whistles I figured along with the 5.0 I should have a very reliable truck..... I read very very few complaints when doing my research so now Im curious as to your experience. This also begs the question now, is a new ZO6 is in your future? haha
Just installed the husky wheel liners and mud flaps on my 2020 stx. Considering what they charge for these trucks, things like wheel liners should come standard.
How do you like the husky liners? How are the ford liners? I want to get them but want to lift my 2020 stx fx4 and feel they would be in the way of the lift process.
@@dannym3879 I like them, they will keep mud/rocks out of the wheel wells, I'm not doing a lot of off roading, I just liked the look of it. They are molded to fit, so if you're going to get a beefier suspension on the rear, they might not fit.
Looks nice. I have one, just like yours , but has everything I need and more. I wouldn’t have spent that much more on an already $50,000 dollar investment. You enjoy it, that’s what matters.
First thing I bought was a reg cab short bed v8. 2nd was a super charger. I was still bored so I bought a new house. Few months later I bought another house. Still on lock down in Pearl Harbor.
Very nice. I would not lose 10% driving it off the lot only to throw another 10% at it. For a long term vehicle and it’s what you like it is very nice. I would suggest the black plastic inserts fir the f-150 stamp on the rear tailgate. I put this on mine and it “pops” if you know what I mean! Matt black and it raises out a little, way better than a sticker. Wishing you many happy miles!
Love the mods that you have done… a little too much money for me but I will most definitely be looking at picking up some of these for my ‘18 XLT! Great work and again great video 👍
You overpaid for the f150 badges, I paid like $18 on amazon lol they're perfect too. I did the Katzkin leather perforated black seats front and back and they came out amazing, did them myself in 2 days. If you say you did all the stuff you listed to your truck yourself I'm positive you could do the seats yourself. Buy the katzkin seat covers on ebay they have a million options to choose from like you said.
I purchased OEM badges for quality. I returned my truck back to stock. I sold the truck in January. I purchased a 2021 F150 Limited Powerboost 4x4. See my latest video.
Stan van gundy knows about Ford trucks. You mention you wanted a sunroof. I can install that with you with my sawzall and provide gorilla glue and perforated holes for air as wel.
What will you do when your tires need to be replaced? Do you plan on just buying 5 tires every time? What if those tires are not available in a couple of years? Nice Truck 4 sure.
Great looking truck! Lose the dash mat. No offense never seen those looks like you stuck your rug up there. I recommend wider offset tires like the raptor. Smaller rim bigger tires and you can get some with rims all the way around under 1k from discount tires Don’t lift it. But man it looks great! I bought these eBay special headlights by Vland. look alot like the Morimotos however we all know they have the best headlights. The Vlands were just under 500 For set and tail lights for cheap I paid 1200 for morimotos on my previous 2013 fx4 now I got a 2018 STX which is base steadily modding as well! Thanks for tips! Nice cars too!
Nice mods. Only thing I wonder is if you had gotten a truck from the dealer with those items already or even ordered one fully spec’d if you could have saved money?
@@TheCarCrazyGuysome people rather buy cheap shit and pay twice to replace it once it goes through some wear and tear. He doesn't understand that some people rather buy new things and get quality parts with warranty instead of looking for the same quality part that might be a couple hundred bucks cheaper because it's used or it's some knock off ching chang chong shit.
Nice truck 💪🔥 it ads up fast I know im restoring a foxbody mustang I have 7 grand in it and still have not even started the body work yet lol beautiful vett by the way..
@@duallynoted2978 All I’ve done are LED upgrades in the trunk and license plate lights, and going from Stage 2 Aero to Stage 3 Aero (rear clear wickerbill and side aero for the front splitter).
How did you get the the hook that lowers down with the spare tire to fit through the tiny hole of that rim? I’ve always wanted to have a matching spare wheel & tire but I didn’t think I could make it work under there.
These are the ones I have, or should I say I used to have. Sold the truck a few years ago. www.headlightrevolution.com/ford-f150-xb-led-headlights-B-LF501_2?quantity=1
Rear tailgate is a 100% match. I carefully broke off the plastic tabs then used fishing line to slice through the adhesive tape. Since my truck was an XLT I removed the existing front badge by removing the upper radiator cover, then the latch. I used a long extension and socket to remove the nuts. One thing that I had to do before starting the project was to start the truck to allow the grill slats to open and then unplug the connector when it was fully opened. On the new emblem I had to break off all the tabs and just use the two face adhesive to stick it into the grill. You only have one shot so stick it on perfectly otherwise you’ll have to pull it off and cut new tape to remount it.
Hello, did installing the instrument cluster void the warranty. Ford seems to be very serious about brining a Ford to the shop with that type of upgrade. Also did the company that you bought the cluster from input the mileage for you? Any forscan issues? Thanks
How can you afford 700dollars for tail lights?seems a bit pricey for those.but hey if you can afford it go for it.truck looks nice ,are you doing ventvisors or hood shield?my f150 is a 2009 xlt and I recently got the avs low profile ventvisors and the avs hood shield. Your truck would look sleek with those bud. Keep truckin'.

I plasti dipped my f150 badges came out perfect been thru 2 Ohio winters and still looks great.saved both time and money
Not sure how I missed this upload when it came out. Regardless, the truck is looking good. As always I love your attention to detail.
Thanks Jon!
Pretty darn awesome. Just bought my very first truck a few weeks ago and it’s the exact same color like yours too. Thinking of doing some mods to starting with a leveling kit.
Very nice, congrats. I sold this truck and went all the way on the new 2021 F150. See my latest video. Thanks for stopping by.
It looks great but no way in hell would I have spent that much. I had much rather just buy a higher term level track to start with.
I agree with @barrystephens900

Good looking truck man I love magnetic gray metallic and gotta love the ol’ Whelen sirens in the background lol
Thanks bud
Nice man..you didn't hold back at all on the mods and it paid off...looks badass 💪🇺🇲
Anything worth doing is worth overdoing. I enjoyed doing a lot of mods to my fx4, sold it and bought a Raptor, started modding all over again, it’s like a disease. Lol Your truck looks good.
Amen
Let me know when you’re ready to sell that truck. And thanks ahead of time for setting it up for me!
I sold it over 3 months ago. Check out my latest video to see what I purchased.
L
So glad I wouldn't settle for anything less the a lariat 502a package and fx4 ! Not a knock on what you did but sounds like you have alot more time then I do !
If you look at my last videos you’ll see what I did. Check it out. I went several trim levels above the Lariat.
For that price I would have done the sunroof, tonneau cover, LED light bulbs, and mud flaps. I probably would still have money left over.
Of course I didn’t do it all at once. I enjoyed doing these mods. It was super fun. It all adds up ⬆️. Thanks for stopping by.
@@TheCarCrazyGuy It definitely adds up. My wife was shocked how much the simple upgrades cost on my 2019 F-150.
How much would it be to add a sunroof
Listening to it all day long, is the sound of potential life or death of another! You could have paused and re-started.
Great video! It’s crazy how fast mods add up. Raptor/heated wheel is on my list of things to do.
You won’t regret it. Check out boostedgreygoosedesigns.net for wiring harnesses for your F150.

Are you gonna replace your tire soon? 35s inches ?
I sold the truck
Truck looks great 👍.
Thanks Tim!
Truck looks awesome. And nice type R.
Awesome truck man!
Why do you need a heated steering wheel in southern California?
Why not? We get cold winters here too.
I really wanna make a video on my 2015 f150 transformation...I completely changed the look within a matter of months! Nice truck BTW
You should do it. Thank you.
The truck looks amazing , definitely if I got the money I will do it 👍👍👍
Looks damn good
Those socks though, best in the video!
Costco socks 🧦
the Z06 in the back 👀

Hi there great vid. What yr was the raptor steering wheel? I have a 19xlt and would like to get the correct wheel. Thanks!
Stan van gundy knows about Ford trucks. You mention you wanted a sunroof. I can install that with you with my sawzall and provide gorilla glue and perforated holes for air as wel.
I like those wheel where did you get them
On the Facebook marketplace
You shop around more like Ebay, I bought my OEM fender badges last month for $18 and yes time consuming to remove old ones.
What will you do when your tires need to be replaced? Do you plan on just buying 5 tires every time? What if those tires are not available in a couple of years? Nice Truck 4 sure.
Where did you purchase emblems. The right emblems are hard to find 😫
I believe a Ford dealer online but I don’t remember which one. Everything‘s hard to get nowadays. Just thank Brandon for that.
If someone hasnt mentioned, may be cool to either delete the FX4 or replace with a blackout version of the FX4...just to go with the whole theme 🙂
I sold the truck earlier this year and replaced it with a 21. Check out my latest video.
You should get a job working on the F150 assembly line turning XL’s into Lariat’s

Nice mods. Only thing I wonder is if you had gotten a truck from the dealer with those items already or even ordered one fully spec’d if you could have saved money?
I saved almost $17k on this truck. It was worth it.
I definitely would’ve went cheaper on a few of those but looks good! What do/did you do for a living?

@@TheCarCrazyGuy I have been a nurse for 18 years and can’t even afford the bed cover from your truck

Great video thank you 🙏
Thank you. You’re welcome ☺️
Looks great, man. How are you liking the Morimoto headlights? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on the XB Hybrids.
They are great. I have the Gen 1 lights. I hear the Gen 2 lights are better. Totally worth it. You wont be disappointed.
Why wouldn’t you get the truck you wanted instead of retrofit? Genuine question and not a troll question
Nicely done
3bills for mirror caps is wild
Do you plan on doing anything to the suspension, lift kit, or performance?
I sold the truck over two years ago.
Nice socks bro
You too can get yours at Costco.com

Did the dash need any extra programming to work?
No, the seller programmed the miles and it matched my truck. The truck sat until the cluster arrived.
Looks like your rear tires are overinflated...
Hello, did installing the instrument cluster void the warranty. Ford seems to be very serious about brining a Ford to the shop with that type of upgrade. Also did the company that you bought the cluster from input the mileage for you? Any forscan issues?

No issues. It was programmed by the seller with the VIN, mileage, engine hours and engine idle hours.
What was the website for the painted mirror/handle covers....very nice truck brotha
OEM Auto Art oemautoart.com
Cool into🤘🏻😎
oh link to your pedal covers as well if you have that ?
I purchased them from Amazon. They are no longer available. These look similar. ebay.us/7FoGHY
Did you get the floor mats too?
What is the benefits of the dash carpet? Sorry but it seems so out of place with all the nice mods you have.
I live in an extremely hot climate. It will help prevent damage to the dash.
These dashes warp pretty bad.
Where did you get the cluster? Is that something that could possibly be installed into a 16 XLT?
I just bought a 2018 platinum
U have a nice truck.
On real-estate you didn't do very well?
Relocating would be my suggestion.
I know you like ur truck but u sound like Ben Stein in the movie. I'm officially sleepy enough to actually sleep. 😴
You MUST get rid of that dash carpet.
Great video! What SYNC is that? I wonder if I could upgrade my F-150 to that.
That’s sync 3, depending on the year of your truck you can do an upgrade.
Beautiful truck…but I feel like for all that money you could buy a new truck with everything included! $176 for the 2 emblems? Holy crap dude
Bro your truck is so dope. I'm trynna get the same mods for my xlt. but damn, I aint got 7gs. I guess its okay to dream tho. hahaha
At least you have a great truck. One step at a time. You will get there.
Can you share the links for the steering wheels mods?
Any engine or performance mods?
No plans to do that
How can you afford 700dollars for tail lights?seems a bit pricey for those.but hey if you can afford it go for it.truck looks nice ,are you doing ventvisors or hood shield?my f150 is a 2009 xlt and I recently got the avs low profile ventvisors and the avs hood shield. Your truck would look sleek with those bud. Keep truckin'.
It was a bit painful but they are really nice factory LED tail lights with BLIS modules included. Thanks for watching!
It was worth it just because he knew he’d get attention
wow!!! phenomenal!!!
Thank you!
Why didn’t you just get a lariat lol
I dumped it and went Limited. See my latest video.
Morimoto has the best looking and best quality headlights IMO for aftermarket headlights. They have superb customer service as well.
Great looking mods, not sure about the rug dash though
