Incredible truck! You have great taste. Best body style of an F-150 and all trucks!!!(I have the same basic body style, ha!)

What do you wax your truck with? Your paint looks showroom new.

Your truck is perfect, however that front tag must be required by law? It tends to "take away" from your awesome ride.

Wes,
Stock sucks, read the tee shirt!!!!!!!!!!!!

iron horse,
Thanks for the complement. I AM PLEASED.
I have to confess that after 115,000 real world miles and 6 years, you can see some flaws close up in the paint. Most provided by the factory (MAKES ME NUTS).
That said she still looks very good and as in my signature, continues to turn heads. I have used many products over the years but basically I always dry my truck after washing. I use a clay bar frequently and finish up with a good coat of Carnauba wax. Lately I've been using Mothers California Gold and Mequires products.

Oh and I always keep my truck in the garage overnight.

BTW, yes the front tag is required by law.

that truck is gorgeous! And yes, thats the best body style

Thats exactly what I plan to get very soon, either black or dark green, extended cab with flare side. Absolutely gorgeous *high five* and where did you get the grille? Its very nice too. Only thing I dont like is the chrome bars on the rear end, but hey its your truck - Im just gonna get a tonneau cover. like I said tho, sexy truck

Great looking truck...I have the same body style also and I think it really is the best style of truck out there. It doesnt matter if its lifted or lowered, that style really looks good. What size rims are those and what size tires? I just got new Pacer 16" rims and I love them. Your sunroof wasnt factory was it? How much was it to get it put on? I want one really bad

GooberPHX420,
The grill is a Steel Horse polished billet from Whitney. I added the Bladerunner from the front of a 2000 Ford Tauris.

JasonG,
The wheels and tires are S.E.C. Polished alloy wheels, Style 27 (17X8) with Falken Ziex 275/60R17 tires. The Sunroof is a Hebasto style L and is very good quality. Had a problem recently with the motor and it was fixed NO QUESTIONS AFTER 5 YEARS. Cost 5 years ago was about $600 installed. This sunroof lifts then moves towards the rear to open the inside up nicely. Pick a quality installer since the headliner will have to be replaced. Anyone in the Baltimore area e-mail me and I will give you the name of a quality installer who stands behind his work.
