Are you still running the 35" tires? What MPG's are you getting? I'm here in Vegas I need to try and get to SEMA to check out your rig, it is awesome, thinking about getting a Super Duty.

No. We started running 37's about a year ago. We really like them…with a 6 inch lift it's more appropriate. 335's just look a little bit too small and 37's (on 17s) give us the room to deflate the tires off road.

As far as the fuel economy, we started running the Edge Evolution CTS2 system, which I will cover later, and we're getting about 17 MPG. That's in stock mode. I haven't done a full evaluation of the system yet but really really love what we have so far from Edge. The race mode puts the white truck at about 1000 foot pounds of torque and somewhere in the ballpark of 600 hp. It's nuts!

The white truck is at SEMA in one of the feature vehicle lots

Look around the show while you're there and see if you can find how many displays have my gray truck.

I keep debating building up my 2016 short box F-250 versus starting a new with a long box and letting the misses have the King Ranch. To make the decision even more difficult now they have the 2017's on the lot haha. Nice trucks OP, definitely makes me want to make the jump to 37's or larger.

I don't know enough about the 2017. Honestly this whole aluminum craze has me nervous. Particularly the brittle nature of aluminum. The whole new design looks really cool except I don't like hard edges like on the wheel wells of the Dooleys. We just put in the edge evolution CTS2 in our 2016 powerstroke. The output is nuts. I think from 80 miles an hour to 110 is like four seconds. It was funny looking at the face of the Dodge charger next to us doing 95 when we passed him

Sometimes I wonder where this year is going to take me… So close to my destination, so close to the end.
