    Mod #1 for my 2020 3.5L EB was an Icon 0-2.63" suspension system with UCA from you guys and I have been absolutely thrilled with its performance both on road and off road. Mod #2 was Fuel Covert 17x9 wheels with Nitto Ridge Grappler LT315/70R17 tires. These fit without trimming or cutting thanks to the Icon kit. Super happy with this set up. Thanks for all your videos helping get these installed. Hoping to add an ADD front bumper some day...

    I went with rough country N3 coilovers up front and V2 shocks in the back. Pretty good value for money and comfortable. I was just looking for something a little less floaty than stock and gave me a 2 inch level. If I end up off roading more than I expect I think fox has a 3 inch lift kit in development I'd probably upgrade to.

    The husky floor mats have a big flaw in the fact that the ridge is not high enough in the back left corner of the drivers side for the F150. In Canadian winter even a small bit of snow melts then runs out of the mat onto the carpet but the door sill making a mess of the carpet.

    Definitely a good video! I’m not much into the off-road deal but I replaced the factory tires on my ‘21 Coyote F150 with BFG KO2’s. Got a hard tri-fold tonneau that folds straight up if needed for full bed usage, definitely worth the investment! I put the Roush intake on and that woke the Coyote up a good bit but the custom stainless true duals and Flowmaster Super 44’s sound friggin’ incredible!! The ‘20 Rough Country neoprene seat covers are a perfect fit and the first thing I got was the Weathertech floormats, 100% worth it all!!

    My next truck will likely be a 2023 with the 5.0. I don’t intend on wheeling it like a Raptor and keep it stock height and rake since I want it to be mostly a highway cruiser with the 4wd for light off-roading and winter driving. I would however like to change out the shocks for some Bilsteins to make the ride more comfortable.

      I'd be cautious about suspension right now. Many 2020 kits will bolt up to the new 2021 trucks, BUT they are not designed for the updated geometry or spring rates so you'll most likely get a poor alignment or premature failure of other components. The engineers I've spoken to highly recommend waiting for 2021 specific kits. There are a few on the market currently, but the options will continue to grow over this year.

    Just an FYI. At one of intro events a Ford Engineer indicated that with a leveling kit the 21 with be capable of handling a 35 in tire. I saw it in a Ford press release as well.

    This is an older video, but listening to the driver and front passenger talk about security by leaving stuff in the rear when parked, they have peace of mind so you need a tonneau cover. So lets buy a soft one instead of one of those secured hard self rolling covers that takes away about 12 inches in the back. The dumbest thief wouldn't hesitate one second to slice away your cover with a cheap blade. No can do! rest of video is ok..
