Las Vegas!
I live in Las Vegas however, I have to drive an hour North for work everyday and I get to see all kinds of vehicles being tested from time to time...

Here I am minding my own business and I see a Gen2 pass me heading South bound. So I looked at the time and I Was like I have some time to kill.

I stopped at Paiute Gas Station and saw this bad boy!

The two old dudes were standing outside looking at me and my truck and I gave them a thumbs up. Walked in the Convenience Store and bought me a water. Walked out and the one old man was in the truck with the windows rolled up. They thought I was with them some how since I have the Gen1.

I went to talk to the other guy next to him with the regular F-150 and asked him If I could just park in between and snap some shots. He told me well we are sworn to secrecy but you can ask the other guy. That's when he said, shit I would rather have yours instead of the Gen2. :biggrin:

So I walk up to the Gen2, knock on the window and the old man didn't look at me. He was filling out some paperwork.
That ****** ignored me, for the first time in my life I felt like I was offering him lawn services... Here's this Latino dude standing outside in his shorts and t-shirt looking all excited as F to talk to the dude. NOPE LOL

So I said **** it, took some snaps, sorry for the bad pics, at that point I was kind of running late.

Anyway, I'm sold, I love that Avalanche Gray. I still want to see Lightning Blue in person before I make my final decision.

I-95 goes through Las Vegas? I thought it goes from north to south on the east coast. Isn't it?

It also runs through Vegas which connects both Carson City and Reno, it's called Veterans Memorial Hwy.

What a d-bag. Not like folks won't buy their products anyway but you'd think they'd have a little bit of class while driving around a soon-to-be-released truck that is in quite high demand.

Good job spotting the truck and posting these shots anyway.

Yeah, stock wheels look nice in those photos. I ordered the beadlocks because I didn't like the looks of the machined base wheels, but they are growing on me. I tempted to try to change my order to the base wheels. I'm still on the fence.

It seems like the majority of the orders on here optioned the beadlocks, but I honestly like the style of the stock wheel. The inside of the rim looks to have dark grey finish or something that contrasts nice against the machined outside. Just don't like the look of the beadlocks. Which is good, one less expensive option to check.
