MHudson, I have a F550 Lariat on order from Bobby Williams (great person to deal with)! Ordered the 4X2, with automatic -
see signature. Had it dropped shipped to Highway Products to have a Highwayman towbody and Link air suspension installed, set up for towing large 5th wheel trailer. Currently at Highway Products being worked on - haven't seen it yet.

Bobby, I think I am feeling a bit on the sick side - maybe I can take a sick day off and go down and take a look at it! Unfortunately
Highway Products is about 225 miles away and I still have to work for a living at least until March. Really anxious to get it!!!!
Talked to Rob Underwood at Highway Products and said that it was a great looking truck, after they get all the work done to it they
want to take pictures and put in the Highway Products Sales Brochure!
Re: F-550 4X4 6spd Crew Cab Lariat -- Anyone else have one orderd?
iam about to order new truck from bobby as well and am trying to decide on the many options available..can u post some pics of your new truck (if and/or when u get it)..sounds like a great setup

busterjo, Picked my truck up on Monday and drove it home on Tuesday - all I can say is "AWESOME"!!!! Plenty of power!!! Lots of looks driving it home - Dodge owner almost got whiplash when passed. Stopped by a local Ford dealer yesterday and the whole dealership emptied into the parking lot to check it out! Hopefully I'm doing this right to access the few photos taken so far.

KATF550,
I do have to say that's one GOOD looking truck you got there. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
ONE problem though! I forgot to send you some Sunrise Ford frames and paper plates. If I sent them to you would you put them on?

Re: F-550 4X4 6spd Crew Cab Lariat -- Anyone else have one orderd?
busterjo,
Thanks! Highway products builds a great body - fit and finish are exceptional. Good job on matching paint - minor complaint, dosen't seem to be as much metallic in the towbody as in the truck cab. Overall very happy with their work. Should be, their bodies are kinda spendy! They use Link UltraRide air suspension, provides a great ride, so far very happy with it. When I visited their plant last spring, I believe they stated that they cut a bit off the frame to fit the Highwayman body on. When driving back home kept varying speed - at highway speed was running around 2500 - wish I could remember MPH - not paying that much attention I guess - just in awe of the truck... Haven't checked mileage yet. Overall very happy with Highway Products towbody, very solid unit! If you haven't found their website yet www.800toolbox.com
Bobby, Thanks again!!! As stated before - you made my truck buying experience a pleasure!!! Already have my new plates on but would be willing to put Sunrise Ford frames on....
