Braved the cold yesterday and installed my M&R fog lights.

NICE! Do you mind showing a video of the difference? Been looking to pick these up once my baby gets delivered.

Home sweet home. Too bad it's 5°F outside or I would be installing the mud flaps, safari bar, and roof rack...

Looks great man! About time you got your rig!

Safari Bar and roof rack installed. Loving the look. Will find time to throw my Rally Armor flaps on this week when temps warm up.

Which roof rack did you get?

Which roof rack did you get?

OEM from Ford. I couldn't option it from the factory since I had too many heavy options added like the skid plates. Should suit my needs just fine and I love the look of it.

So happy for you!. And getting the mods done right away too. I'm off to add my methods+35s today, then my garage and will decide what lift/level to add, and then the mudflaps will go on. Too much slush in MN all winter to not use flaps. I've got a bunch of oracle lighting, but I'll wait for warmer temps and the ditch mirrors to ship.

Thanks!! I just installed the flaps this morning now that the weather cooperated! Post pics when you can

Great news from FORD CHAT my 2022 WILDTRAK scheduled for 5 January 2023 delivery. It gets pushed back a few days every time I check with them. I really feel they dont know anything and just throw a dart at the calendar.

Essentially that's how we all have felt.
Now I'm playing with my Credit Union since I've moved out of state since I ordered mine and apparently no one has ever moved to Michigan or Indiana and purchased a car through them. I say this because they're acting like it's an impossible feat. At least I got to drive it yesterday.

My delivery date just keeps pushing. I have zero faith in Ford anymore so I gave up on talking to chat or my dealer. I’m pretty confident I’ve ended up on whatever the newest equivalent of shit mountain is. Maybe I’ll see my 22 in June.

Yeah, I lost 2.99 financing (now 3.99) because my CU wouldn't finance out-of-state, and wouldn't accept the transit title even after I had paid cash. So poopy pants on that. I still want to finance it, but at least i was able to drive it home (with a now very empty bank account.)

Here are my first couple of mods, new wheels (METHOD 703s), tires (BFG KO2 285/75R17 (34"), and Mabett seat covers (was going to do Alea leather, but this vinyl looks and feels good so I'm sticking with it for a while). May do a level, but no lift needed. No rubbing, crash bars are still in. Mudflaps and lights will wait for better weather. The wheels make SUCH a difference, included a "before".

It looks great! Love the wheel choice. Did you have factory cloth or MGV? I have almost gone out and bought a couple 2023s while I’m stuck waiting on my truck because there are several that are almost my order. They either have cloth or MGV though and I ordered leather. The main thing stopping me is not knowing much about after market covers and wanting that as an added expense. Those look great.

I have factory cloth (roast in the OBX). Actually don’t mind it, but I also have dogs and that is a never ending battle! If you do want leather, Alea is a great aftermarket supplier — I called the Alea team and got a great recco for an installer in my area. But really this PU option from Mabett seems to be a great option. Time will tell regarding durability.
