Nothing you haven't seen already...Picked up my 2014 Ruby Red SE SCrew on Tuesday in the pouring VA rain. Options - SE, 801A, moonroof, spray in liner, bed extender, front camera, tailgate step.

Installed a Roll-X Thanksgiving morning, very happy with the product and the easy install.

Managed to get off-road just a bit while at my parent's farm for the holidays. Hauling across the hay field at 70mph almost felt like I was on the highway. Found a mix of manure, mud, and streams to play in. Tinkered a bit with the different settings (4H and off road) but since I was only on a 20 minute adventure didn't really get a feel for any of them. I was definitely impressed with how well she handled everything.

Hosed most of the chunky mud off that night (didn't actually wash). Then when I got home today I took the power washer to her. Trying to get underside clean was a PITA, lots of areas for mud/grass to collect. I was in hurry so not the best of jobs.

This picture is the morning after throwing some mud, so a mix of mud and frost in the picture.

Less than 500 miles on her, but loving every minute of it.

That's awesome! Today is my build date. Damn you Ford for making me wait! I'm thinking about calling the dealer ever hour and asking if it's ready yet.... I'm looking for places already to go get muddy straight from the dealer. :drool:

Jerry's Ford Leesburg working with Tom Schwietz. I was their first 2014 order. I know they have at least one other on order.

Just by proximity to off-roading in the Northern VA, mine will be a street queen, daily driver 95% of the time. But when I can get dirty, I will. Heck, I even have one of the coveted Sno-Ball 500 spots and very much looking forward to it.

Any NOVA peeps ever try "The Cove" just west of Winchester?
