Time for an update

[dixie_boysles]

Well guys, I think its time for an update!. A few have seen my old F150 that I bought back in November. The truck made me weary and sounded like it may have been developing the diesel noise and I wasn't about to throw that kind of money into it replacing phasers on a truck that I just bought. Also it just wasnt as nice and clean as I am accustomed to and needed work, so I sold it, made some money on it, and found me another truck!

I was really aggrevated with dealerships trying to rape me on prices of the trucks and was down and out I couldnt find a decent one at a decent price UNTIL i ran across a guys truck on the other F150 forum!

So met up with him, tested the truck, looked it over real good, asked about phasers, spark plugs, and checked things like the ashtray that I had to replace on my other truck and a few other things...the truck is sweeeeeet! Just the right amount of mods and things that I would have done had i been modding an F150 from the beginning. Picking the truck up Thursday!

The ranger is being taken to a dealer sale today with my buddy who is going to sell it for me down there. bye bye Ranger, youve been a great friend

That is a beautiful clean truck you got there - great that it came with all the mods you were after too.

no kidding! I always wanted exhaust but never bit the bullet on it! Lus I only had a V6, this truck sounds MEAN with the flowmaster 40s and an x pipe

Very clean looking truck.

The only downfall to the truck is the need of tires in about 10000 miles, but im still saving compared to buying from a dealership. Drove one JUST like it with 4k more miles and it was 19900 and only a year newer. Im getting this one for 15k

 

[5.0Flareside]

how many miles are on this truck?

 

[dixie_boysles]

how many miles are on this truck?

Good Deal!!!!

Sounds like a fair deal. What size are the tires? Are they stock? The stance looks a little different than stock to me.

It has a 2 1/2" leveling kit and 325s (35" tire). so its definitly not stock. It has a n 87 performance tune and a 87 towing tune and even with the 35s, still gets the same gas mileage as my other 04 was getting stock. The exhaust and stuff probably help that though

One sweet truck. That's definitely the way to go, let someone else absorb the cost of the mod's.
