My '07 Redfire XLT

Recently rejoined the ranks of F150 ownership after a 5 year hiatus. Originally planned to just buy a "beater" truck for some light hauling/towing, but came across this truck and decided to go all in.

Purchased May '15 - completely stock '07 XLT 5.4 with ~38k miles. It's RWD, but I live in Ohio and don't have much need for 4x4 - in the past, I've simply added weight to the bed of my truck during the winter and have gotten around anywhere I've needed.

Mod/upgrades so far in these pictures:
  • Replaced front & rear Ford emblems, as they had become delaminated and looked like crap
  • 50% tint up front + extra 50% on the back over factory tint
  • Pioneer headunit, Sirius satellite, and reverse camera
  • Bakflip tonneau cover
  • FX2 grille
  • Blackout headlights
  • Goodyear Wrangler A/T tires

  • Upgraded map, dome, and rear cargo lights to LED (6k)

Next up:

- Replace 3rd brake light with smoked version (actually already complete, just no pictures yet)
- Replace taillights with smoked, LED upgrades
- Ford badge overlays (matte black with silver "Ford" script)
- Fender and tailgate badge overlays - "F150" will have PTM look

Once these are done, the truck will pretty much be complete. Might add tow mirrors, if necessary (pickup my tailgating trailer next week). Otherwise, glad I got 60k mile warranty with truck, as my A/C compressor seized up today and will likely need to be replaced.

Any input is welcome. Thanks for looking!

Love the look of those badges, I want some for mine but can't justify the money for them yet.
