Congrats! I have a white 2024 custom, bought in September of '23. Great truck. I upgraded from a 2009 Tacoma trd. Check out Realtrucks and AmericanTrucks for rear wheel well protectors and such. Also 404parts has some nice factory upgrades. What trim did you get?

Nice truck. Just upgraded my 1504wd with coyote engine to a f250 Super Duty yesterday
I hope you like your upgrade as much as I am enjoying mine. I was pleasantly surprised of the F250s ride so far, I was very happy with that F150 ride and handling, only towing manners caused me to change.

I can definitely echo that. I loved my f150 and loved the engine also. Towing was good as long as you kept it modest. So far I like the 250. Just have to rember it is longer than the 150. Curbs cough cough

Went with the gas over the diesel, because I will never have to be pulling 20,000 pounds. Plus living in Florida, 95% of the driving will be on flat ground. We have a travel trailer that is about 5000 lbs, but knowing that a small 5th wheel is in the future.

Nice, pretty much the same reason I went with the gasser also. Plus I was not messing with Def. The F250's I was looking at in the same price range did not have the goose neck/5th wheel prep or bed liner. Have 27000 miles on it and the Allison transmission is super smooth.

Don't know if they're still putting Rancho's on them from the factory but they're not great, especially on the 2500. You can get Bilstein's for about $600 and they make a world of difference.
Yes, still putting the ranchos on them and they're still terrible. Will definitely check out the Bilsteins but It would be nice if Walker Evans made some for a Z71.
