Gonna be a whole lot of leadfoot Lariats with baby engines for sale come spring 2023

You're the second person that's thought it's Lead Foot. Was in a huge rush at delivery+short/cheap lease so who cares, but when I brought it home I wasn't all that impressed by the detailing job they did...ended up having to clean/polish myself.

[Pauly Boy]

I just assumed from the tiny thunbnail, lol.
To be fair, the Beyond forums are.pretty terrible to view on mobile

Our detailing job was pretty rushed too. My favourite was the flaw in the paint they tried to buff out (swirl marks everywhere around it) and at some point, they were like "good enough" lolol

You got a RFD special right?
I would just get a plastic drop in liner instead of the spray in, added benefit of being to potentially sell it when you give the truck back.

I did. Is that through the dealer?

I'd check with the dealer parts department to make sure you get the right part number.

I *THINK* this is the right one, there's a bunch of VERY similar part numbers.

There's also aftermarket ones floating around, not sure if they're more or less expensive than the OEM one though.

Kinda glad I got the spray liner included and ended up getting the tonneau cover residualized and rolled into the lease too.

[Pauly Boy]

So in the end we picked up a tri-fold soft tonneau for ours from Bison:

Wife got a 10% discount code on FB or something, so was just over $250. Not as nice as the hard flush fit ones, but also not $1000. Could have residualized the cost of one for about the same price, but I honestly didn't think we needed to bother with one originally.

How long do these sync updates take over wifi? I've had one pending for a few days and it's parked in an area of good coverage from my home network.

I have never gotten the wifi updates to work. ever. not once. Any updates I have done with a USB stick.

Oh. I've never owned a vehicle that did all the fancy shit before.

I shit on Acura for giving me an interface that makes Windows 95/98 look current, but man sometimes it's nice to just be able to jump in the car and go with everything loaded up before I even slap it in reverse to get out of the driveway.

Progress!

Anyone have any experience on the drop in liner? I was going to grab one, but I've been told it's "slippery", and that I should look at a bed mat instead. I really just want to protect the bed from dirtbike loading, which will rub against the sides, so I'm leaning towards the liner instead. Specifically the one you get from the dealer, since I can get a deal.

[ExtraSlow]

Drop in is a little slippery, which is a benefit for unloading stuff like gravel. You will get some rubbing in a few spots where it vibrates, so you will lose some paint. No biggie. Don't think the dealer ones are any different than any others.

Check out bedrug if you like a soft liner, or spray-in for most durable and not slippery.

Dealer is just going to spray in liner the bed once you turn the lease in anyways. Don't worry about normal wear and tear in the bed.

Yeah, they do spray or drop-in liners on nearly every used truck to hide the blemishes. So small scratches or dings are NBD.

I also worry about my feet slipping out from under me while loading the bike. Paint is a slipperry bitch, so I want some purcharse. Sounds like I should go with a rubber mat, and the sides be damned.

Horse stall mat.

Horse stall mat.

this... I basically cut out a 3/4 rubber mat to fit my box. It weighs however closer to 70lbs.

I use a drop in, which with the rubber mat is ridiculously durable...

99% of the time I have my rubber mat in there, which prevents sliding and additional dampening when tossing stuff in there.

1% of the time, the Drop in gives a lot of protection when I do get a load of aggregate or soil and can just use shovel right on it.

I love the look of the Bedliner, but I have seen it scrape off... and my neighbour has had to have his touched up 3-4 times... that said he uses his 2015 F150 like a rented mule, and uses the box to carry loose aggregate almost 3 times a week.

Sorry, you cut up horse stall mat for daily, and have a drop in liner you put in for certain times? Got any pics?

I use both - remove the horse mat when going to Burnco for aggregate or mulch etc..

[cyra1ax]

I haven't see the Ford one but I'd imagine it would be similar to the ones in the Taco.
