Got my new F150!

Well it finally arrived last week. I ordered 3/12 and it arrived 4/19. I got a chance to wash it today and take some pics, I put them my gallery.

https://www.f150online.com/galleries....cfm?gnum=5785

I finally received all of the audio equipment & wiring I ordered; can't wait to get that installed. Sony head unit, XM, Polk component speakers and Quart AMP. I think I'm mounting the amp behind the rear seat...but we'll see what I can stand to put myself through. I also got a Line-X bedliner sprayed in, mud flaps put on and side windows tinted to match the rears.

Overall I'm thrilled. Thanks for all the information on this site as it helped in narrowing down options and getting the audio system I wanted. Cheers!

Hey Matt 05'FX4, thanks! You all are quite the welcoming comittee...of course you are also going to get me to spend more $$$ too! Matt, how do you like your Xcalibrator? I installed a superchips, Gibson catback & K&N on my 98 F150 and had reasonable performance from the 4.6. But I hope the Xcalibrator will bring some gains along with exhaust, etc. Later when I have $ again.

I went a bit nuts on the options on my truck, went back and forth between Lariat and XLT but couldn't get this color in Lariat unless you got 2 tone. I also got the moonroof, mirror package, power rear sliding window, captains chairs, power seat & power pedals....whew!

Ok, how did you get that picture into the thread!!!!

Don't go ahead and buy the Xcalibrator because the Xcalibrator 2 is coming out soon!

Once you post the picture in your gallery, right click and click properties. Copy the "Url Address" and than click on the "IMG" button when you go to "reply" and paste the link and just click okay and voila!
