Am I a Geezer?

Hello all,

I decided to go with chrome bumpers instead of going with the sport appearance package. I'm typically not a huge fan of chrome bumpers but after seeing a carbonized grey Tremor at my local dealer I really liked the contrast between the bumpers and body paint. I am 52 by the way. It seems that most people here have opted for the sport appearance package. I think the trucks look great either way. What do you guys think?

Take care.
NO you are not a geezer, there are a lot of younger people who still like a modest amount of chrome, it adds contrast and an old school look to a lot of the butt ugly new designs out there. Besides, the chrome paint that is on the bumpers will outlast the "painted bumpers". Another thing is that to get the black grill and painted bumpers, you have to go with the Lariat or higher and that defaults you to leather seats which I hate.
 
I am not to much older than you,but I prefer the chrome bumpers and grill . The black grill and painted bumpers look to me like a work truck or what Ford used call the XL optioned trucks ,,maybe I am getting old LOL , You have to give Ford guys credit for making the black out package more expensive and the chrome standard when it used to be the other way around.
I have a 2012 F250 XL with black grill and black painted bumpers. It’s a FX4 with a few options like hill descent, locking rear axle. Really like this truck but it’s starting to rust and it’s time. I’ve always wanted to order a truck so I ordered a 22 carbonized gray tremor with the black appearance package.

You are a non-geezer until you earn the title.

im 52 also I went with the chrome and the carbonized grey I couldn't be happier. I don't like too much chrome but this combo is perfect . but then again I haven't seen a tremor color combo I didn't like
 
I like the chrome. To me the painted bumpers always gave it a cheap look like chrome was the upgrade someone didn't opt for.
it is cheaper than chrome ,but Ford has convinced the buyers that is "upgraded" ..more profit and Ford stock reflects it. Buy more blacked out vehicles.. and more profits.. for the stock holders. :)
