Wow - where are these low mile 100s?
 
Picked her up Friday and drove her home from Oakland today. Even better in person than I could have hoped for. Interior looks almost new. Very few little nicks and scratches on the exterior. Engine and undercarriage look amazing. Took me 7 hours from Oakland to SD going 75 mph on cruise control for 90% of the drive, no traffic. Got about 350 miles on the first tank for about 16 mpg at 75 mph...pretty good!

I LOVE the truck. Amazing sound system, even stock. Super comfortable. Steering and suspension a little floaty compared to my late model F-150 but I'm guessing I'm just used to a full sized truck ride. I'm also guessing the future OME lift and AT tires will bring the ride more in line with what I'm used to.

Overall SO STOKED on this truck.
 
Congrats man.

Drive under 70 or better yet 65mph and you'll get significantly better efficiency. Talking exponentially worse the faster you choose to go above hwy speed limit.

While this is quite self-evident, it's also a good tip and true. I just wanted to get home quickly on a 500+ mile drive! Still pretty impressed with the gas mileage at that speed.

Forgot to mention above, the truck already has a Flow Master muffler on it! Sounds amazing and saved me $200-300 as adding a muffler and K&N cold-air intake was one of the first things on my to-do list.
 
Here's a pic of the truck when I picked it up at the dealer.
