Finally Got a Truck!!

Hey guys, I've been wandering around here for a while asking a lot of questions, and y'all have been so helpful about it. Well, I finally got my truck tonight, and I couldn't be happier. 1999 F150 SCab 4x4 with the 5.4 and auto. 107k miles, bed was replaced with rust free one and rhino lined...new rust free doors came with it too!

After looking for so long, here is my list of upgrades so far. Let me know what you guys think about it and I'm open to all additions or criticisms.
Remove Cap
New exhaust (something that really gives it a good v8 sound and doesn't have to be annoyingly loud.)
Crank the T-bars up some and either AAL or the Monroe Hydrolift/hauler shocks in the rear.
Either 285s or 295s
Maybe new wheels
L style heads
LED tails
Towing mirrors

Here she is:

Nice, but never liked the canopy. If I wanted canopy, I would of gotten SUV. Started having problems with my 2003 Supercrew, may trade in if I can find comparable one. May trade in mu SUV as well for a mini-van, you know how that goes with kids...

What in the world is a canopy ? I know what it is, but he purchased a truck here. Where did canopy come from ?

Suv's come with them ? Is that some sort of promotion ?
