04's Not Selling Well?

i dunno about yall, but i havent seen many 04's around at all. since they came out, ive seen maybe 5 of them on the road. a few at shows, a few at dealers. is everywhere like this or is it just Houston? the are damn good looking trucks and i dont know why there arent many around.

I think it's still a bit early. I see a few every day but I think as time goes on you will see more and more, it was the same way when the 97's came out.

I just saw one on my lunch break. Dark shadow gray FX4 Screw with aftermarket rims and a dark tint. It was sweet. I gave the guy a thumbs up from my crappy truck.

By the way Ford, when will mine get here???!?!?!?!??!?!??!

I think it has to do with all the incintives that were offed on the 03's. For me, I usually don't buy the first year model anyway. Yeah it's a truck and A FORD, but still, I like to wait til the kinks are found and ironed out.

I know in the Houston area, I saw a bunch of new 250's and 350's on the road - an explotion of the bigger models.

Not a bad turnout for a 2004 vehicle, considering its still 2003!

I've seen pepatrick around - but without the DRLs!

The parking lot where I work had it's first 04 the other day,,, and it was not mine :-( Kinda ticked me off,, I wanted to be the first. And I'm so close. Mine should arrive any day now.

It was silver SCREW. Knew it was an 04 when I saw the mongo blue oval on the tailgate (couldn't see the front).

In our town all the supercrews sell right away. The dealer tried to drive a demo screw but they sold it right out from under him.

I am probably like most of us who own one in that I did'nt need to go buy a new truck right now, I was only interested in the 04 150. I didn't even look at 03's.

Most folks just needing a truck probably would rather have the 5 grand or so in buying an 03.

Yep...no DRLs yet. I do not want to splice into the factory wiring, so I will wait until someone has figured out the DRL thing. I think I have seen Daneo2's truck running around too. I like it...nice truck...I think I like the billet grill...
