Well here is the new truck. Dont bash me cuz its a FORD!

This is hands down the best truck I have ever owned or driven. 100 miles on it so far, so we will see. The interior is absolutely silent. I could not say the same for the Dodge or the numerous Chevys I have owned. They all rattled and squeeked. This is my first Ford. I got it because I got around 10k off and wanted to try a Ford since i have never owned one.


It is probably going to get a 6-inch lift and some 35s.

I had an 04 (new style) F150 FX4 before the CTD. It was a nice riding/driving truck for sure. If people would have stopped running into it, I would have kept it. Mine was cursed!

It will never be the same. there will be noises and clicks and stuff that just drives you crazy. If you were looking at upgrading your truck, i would suggest you do it. Thats why i got my truck now, because i wrecked my old one and just couldnt stand the differance when it got fixed.

I came from a ford f-150 to the dodge... But it couldn't tow anything within reason and I tow all the time so it was a pretty easy swap... I do like the interior of that truck!!

I too came from a Supercrew F150 into the dodge. I put a 6 inch lift and 35's on mine. Made a great driving truck into a great looking worthless P.O.S. Do yourself a favor, and leave it stock!

The Ford is for sale BTW! LOL

I missed this thread hate to hear it Wreed. I always hate to see the wrecked threads. But hey that's a nice looking Ford you've got and I don't care what anybody says they've always made the best half ton pickup. That's all I ever had before the Ram was F150s. I would like to have another one but want to wait and see how these new Dodge 1500 diesel pickups turn out next fall.

They gave you 50 G's . I would have liked to have some parts off your truck though . Hope who ever gets it in Mexico enjoys it.
