    New to the truck lifestyle and do'n it with a Tundra. No need for a big SUV at this point in my life as kids are grown. Primarily purchased as a tow vehicle for race car and boat. But I can see some other potential uses. I'm thinking this is my last 4x4 tow vehicle.

    Thanks for the welcome guys. All I have are a couple of pics from the dealership a few weeks ago at time of pick-up (pun not intended). Its been in the garage ever since because winter has arrived and don't plan on ruining this one with a Chicago winter right off the bat. I have a Expedition as a winter daily. Ill get the undercarriage either Ziebart or Line X treated this spring.

    Congrats on the new truck! And Welcome :wave:

    For rust treatment go with Krown. Line-X and Ziebart tend to hold moisture in and rot the frame from the inside out. There are a couple of threads and videos on this.

    I heard of this Krown process but thought it was a Canadian version of Ziebart. Did a little research a long time ago and it sounded like it needs to be re-applied regularly. But I am willing to listen so tell me about it.

    Thanks for all the Welcomes from all over the country.

    Yes it needs to be reapplied annually. But it is an petroleum based product where Ziebart is rubber based product there are pros and cons to both but $100 a year didnt seem like a big deal to me and it comes with a warranty
