Anybody use a F350 XL for TC?

Personally I like the argent grill and bumper, it looks like a REAL truck.However the chrome grille looks nice too if you have other chrome accessories go for what you like best that is the bottom line.

I wish our truck had the black argent grille on my dark Forest Green 2012 F350 XLT. My wife and I both do not like the bright Chrome Grill and surround.

I found some more pictures of my XL grill with a little more of the red truck showing:

I like my black grill, chrome bumpers and chrome wheels. The truck's color is Green Gem. Yes. It looks black, most of the time. It's an XL, but it has power windows/locks, cruise control, steering wheel mounted radio controls, heated/towing mirrors and cloth seats. I love the plastic floor. If the camper looks goofy on the truck, let me know. I won't care, because I like it, but you're welcome to say so.
The factory, painted Argent steel wheels looked rather unimpressive, although they had chrome center caps. Factory wheels on a dually aren't the prettiest things, either.

Here is my F350 2008 Dually.

The white grows on you after a while
I wanted Blue Jean color,but settled for white off the lot with $6500 discount.
Great tough truck.
I know its not 350

Well, IMHO, the argent grille looks good if you have the argent bumper. If you stack the argent grille on the chrome bumper it looks a little off. With the newer style body anyway. At least they don't give the black bezel headlights on the new XL's anymore like they did on the 08-10 series trucks. Man those are FUGLY and their light output is abysmal.

In 2005, the appearance package gave you the better headlights over the stock rectangular bulbs. You can see mine are the better ones in my earlier post.

The hood valence and snow covers up the red truck, but I ordered mine. Like you are finding, most of the XL's come in white. It was the same way with my current Tradesman Ram - I ordered it in brown instead of the common white.

Yea I think the Argent grille looks sharp contrasted with a deep paint color but alas, most XL's are work/fleet trucks and are ordered in oxford white.

I could care less what the bumpers colors are but I would want to make sure my truck has cruise control and cloth seats. I think you have to get the chrome bumpers to get cruise control.
