Default Got a new ride !!!

After driving Chevy for 15 years I took a chance and bought a Ford. Looked at both vechicles but the Ford F150 had way more interior room, options, and better fuel economy (from what I have heard). I chose the ecoboost engine over the 5.0, I drove them both and liked the ecoboost better..Anyone around Lake Charles put a leveling kit on one yet? I will be looking to install one very soon...

That Ecoboost wil flat out run. If you have any kind of mechanical skill, the leveling kit is easy to install. Saves on labor cost if you can do it yourself.

Do they do re-alignments there or did you take it somewhere else to get it re-aligned after they were done?
