I still plan on seeing if the running board lights connector powers on when the mirror spotlights come on. I don't remember which option gives you the LED spotlights but that is the same power supply as the boards. Mine has the spotlight/puddle lamps.

Good to know! I think that was in the tow tech package. So, the connector for the running board lights is present on the Pro and hopefully, just gotta plug in the OEM boards and they work? So long as you have the spotlights anyway?

Here is how the oem 22 running boards look. Luckily I had a set of pull offs from a TC Custom build last week.

Does it need a step to get in? The Pro is a little lower than those with the 20" wheels and the F150 looks a little lower than my current Ram when I drive by one.

I dont need the step for entry but the wife does....she is also going to need an old school phone book to sit on.

Yours should straight work if you have tow tech. The power based on the diagram is the same to the control modules. Mine without tow tech will not work, but I’m wondering if I can enable it via programming

It is not listed as a programable parameter in the workshop manual. That does not mean it can't be enabled using forscan. I'll do some more fooling around in the programming and see what I can find.

I believe that to be the case.

Pretty sure the Pro has the same overall diameter on the tires, just more sidewall and less wheel.

I pulled specs on Tire Rack a couple weeks ago and I recall the 18" is a little over 32" and the 20" is right at 33".

Just went to check. Here's the 18" Michelin Primacy XC

20" General Grabber HTS 60

I’m not a super tall guy, I can climb in fine. But I am climbing in. The steps certainly help even myself.

It's too quiet in here.

So now that most of you have your truck, what‘s the new hobby/obsession going to be?

I am (Platinum) stuck in Junction Point…. Salem, Illinois for a couple weeks. Waiting to get off of Canadian Rail onto a UP train to San Antonio. Have a 10/3 build week Mach -E GT PE that will probably be built, ship, and arrive first!

We told you not to smuggle anything across the border, that’s what you get for not listening

Getting to see my truck. Bugging Rivian about when I get that truck. Redoing my electrical to accommodate my new battery with a functional truck shaped battery enclosure.

Looks like my new hobby is repairing my tailgate.

Did you tailgate too hard?
