Got my '06 Crew w/ the big bed - pics in gallery.

Picked my truck up on Monday.

Wow is thing thing quiet and smooth. Really like it so far. Not too thrilled with the looks of the wheels but maybe they'll grow on me.

Never modded a vehicle before but you all are inspiring me - I'm seeing some sort of chromed grill insert in my future.

Here's the link to the gallery:

Not so sure about it yet, but it will probably grow on me. It sure does give the supercrews more functionality as far as hauling things now. Sweet truck anyways.

Like the new look, but still prefer the 5.5ft bed. Overall very clean. Nice choice in colors also.

I like the new look, I wanted the longer bed when I got my 04 SCREW, but I would have had to step up to the F250.

Wow that's a whole lotta truck!
It sounded good in theory, but now seeing the length of that thing, things change in my mind.

Nice looking truck though. It's just a matter of trying to find out if that extra bed space is worth the huge mass of the vehicle.

Anyhoo, The best of luck to you and your new supersized F-150!

Have you tried parking that thing in a tight spot yet?......... ouch

Looks nice. I think it would look great with a little lift and some larger tires.

that truck really does look nice......not as rediculously big as i expected it to be....but the breakover angle in that thing must still be horrible.....that would prolly be my only complaint on that rig....youd need a 10 inch lift just to have the same breakover as the supercrew with the 5.5 bed and a 6 inch lift.......i bet its really stable when pulling a heavy trailer though.....what is the tow capacity on that monster?

6" longer than my SCAB. 235.8" overall length, 150.5" wheel base. That thing won't fit in my garage! Damn nice looking truck, though.

Sweet ride but not functional IMHO.

Too big to park in a garage and just basic reverse parking at the mall must be a biatch.

Safe driving.
