I’ve had two Chevy trucks a while back, then three Rams in a row, but I just grabbed this beauty last weekend. Went from a 2015 Ram 1500 Hemi—pretty basic truck—to this 2022 XLT in Space White with the 5.0, and I absolutely love it. Never thought I’d own a Ford, but after seeing it and taking a quick test drive (half of it in sport mode), I was sold. It already has a small lift, which is perfect for my style, so I don’t think I’ll be changing anything about its looks. Just need to throw an exhaust on it to bring back some of that sound I had with my old Hemi.
Get rear wheel well liners. Makes a huge difference on white trucks.

Second this! Makes the truck look way better, and it’s one of the cheapest upgrades.

Great idea, hadn’t even thought of those. I don’t think I noticed, but what kind of difference do they make?

Mostly cosmetic. Right now, your rear wheel well is painted white like the body—not bad, but once you put in black liners, it looks so much cleaner. You can probably see in your photo how different the front and rear look since the front already has a dark liner.

Makes a big difference on any color truck, to be honest.
Nice truck!!! Congrats. You’re gonna love the 5.0.
Congrats! I love that color. Wish it was available when I got my 2021. Ended up with Lead Foot, which is still pretty dope.

Yeah, the color was a huge selling point. I’ve always liked white vehicles, and this is just different enough to stand out from all the plain white work trucks everywhere.
Man, don’t change a thing on that truck—it’s perfect! (Maybe just front window tint and/or leather seats.)

Window tint is definitely happening. Never been a fan of leather, though—I actually really like the cloth seats in this one. Just a personal preference thing.

Hey, more power to you! This truck is the perfect combo of all the right specs.
Ride with cloth until it gets dirty, then swap to leather. Save money and upgrade something else—maybe level it out?

I’ve always stuck with cloth and usually just throw on a good set of seat covers. The truck already has a lift. It does still have a little forward rake, but this pic isn’t the best angle since I’m parked on uneven ground.
