TRUCK PICS

Now think about how to personalize it. It will be getting a cap, I will not two tone on the lower body panels. I hate the way Ford does that now. I'm thinking woodgrain.
Those are definately F250 springs in the back. We moved the boat with it this evening. The truck didn't move when we put all the weight on it. ;)

Shanendoah was awesome, but the kids sucked. Met this cute chick, who was vacationing there from her summer working at a christian church/work camp.

I'll owe you the pictures for now, but I promise they'll make it up.

I'm not quite sure how, but I bought a truck. 1998 F150 supercab longbed. 53000 miles, f250 suspension.

Pros:
3rd door
5.4L is a good engine
3/4 ton truck registered as a 1/2 ton
3rd door
Manual windows / locks
Slider
3rd Door
Good aftermarket still present
working A/C

Cons:
1 gas tank
no tach
no cruise
1998 bumper style sucked
it sits with a good rake to it
knees hit non tilting wheel when getting in / out
crappy front axle
automatic tranny

Pics coming soon also. there are more little things for both, but it'll clutter up the post. It was extremely clean, and was the best I was going to do till sept-oct when everyone starts trading their trucks in for the winter. And even then I might have done worse.

I'll be looking for input on how to accessorize it once I get some pics up.
