Noob F150 owner saying Hi.
Just wanted to say hi.
I came to this site looking for info or possible problems with the new 04-05 F150's and found one for sale at a great price. Bought it with 20K miles the only mods were a Line-x liner and LoJack. Since I have got a Superchips tuner, Banks Power Monster Exhaust, Snuglid SL tonneau cover and today I installed a Airaid Intake kit.
This has been the only F150 body style I have liked since the 1993 I sold earlier in the year. What a long way this truck has come.
I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving weekend
Chris

It didn't take long for the mod bug to bite you. It sounds like you've got quite a nice truck.
You have a good Thanksgiving, too.

It's a
04 F150 S-cab Lariat 6.5'box loaded with everything but running boards, which I didn't want anyway.
I picked it up from Brewmaster here on the forum and all the mods have come from Troyer Perf except for the exhaust and tonneau. Oh well I feel the need for a underdrive pully kit coming on.

It is a small world. I miss Brewmaster's presence around here. I hope he's doing well.
I hope to get e-fans and an underdrive pulley eventually (it's all a matter of having enough $$$).

He kept great service records and the truck is just like new. It still has 4 years left on the extended warranty!
The truck looks great in that picture. It looks cleaner than it is right now. Sam said he took it out to the Glamis dunes out east of San Diego that must be a pic from the trip.
The money is what I'm out of now but I guess I said that after the exhaust came in. Maybe I can drop enough hints that the wife will get the pulley kit for me as a x-mas present. Oh well I guess I'm lucky enought that she puts up with me and my hobbies.
Thanks John for posting up the pic. Looks great,
Chris
Lots of good info on here!

Welcome.
Normally we talk about keeping it in the family, we mean relatives...now we can add the truck. Another reason to get a F150online sticker for the back window.
We do expect that you will keep it as clean as Brewmaster did. We don't want to hear that you are running around town with dirty rims on the front...
If you need any advice on maintaining the shine, just check in with Rock Pick. He's the local expert.
