im afraid they dont make the bullnose for the 150, it would look good tho

i personally like the regular grille guard with the bar that u can see over the hood while drivin,,, it kinda gives u a sense of protection,, lol i know it sounds stupid , but the ranchhands are tough! my buddy has a white and tan 4x4 with and ranchhand, his driveway goes through a cow pasture, and well he took one out( not on purpose lol) the point is the fender and front bumpers had minor bends and the ranchhand didnt know it had hit ne thing!

i dont like the looks of them though. i want something similar to the road armor ones, just not as big. but something that replaces and is like the bull nose.

ARB is coming out with one, but they are like 1200 bucks....like the Road Armors.

I agree. Im 17 and its hard to throw money into my truck and never be able to get it back. Thats why I throw my money into my 66 and 87 . What I plan on doing is investing in something instead of throwing your money away and starting over on that piggy bank. Once you get a good amount of money, invest in something. Its much easier to get money that way. Then spend a few bucks on your truck here and there.

But if you really like yout truck and are going to keep it for a long time then do what you want. Id say start on some interior stuff. The exterior looks almost complete.

Funny, I'm doing the same thing. I'm done with my truck for quite a while and spending some money on the 65!

I would love to know how kids, yes I said kids, your age can afford to buy trucks like this and then put all this money into them. Are your parents that rich that they can afford to just buy you whatever the hell you want? Call me jealous, call me whatever you want, I have worked my *** off in the military since I was 17 and I am just know able to afford the things I want in life. Whatever happened to paying dues before you get what you want? I guess with rich folks you don't have to do that huh? For those of you that aren't of age yet I suggest taking that money and putting it into a college education, or setting it aside for when you move out of mommy and daddy's house so you will have enough money to survive. Just my .02

you need to read a little more......i get to go to college on the HOPE Grant which pays for jsut about everything except for mabye 2 books, food, and some other small things. Not only do i get that here in GA but also i get it in South Carolina (not called HOPE Grant though).

my parents bought the truck yes.....but i did not ask for it. my dad bought me it and im greatfull. i work for him in the summers doing computer work and get paid a third of what his actual employees do ($13 a hour). thats where all the money came from for my parts.

and plenty of kids do buy there own trucks/cars. some nicer then others, my friend josh bought him a identical F-150 to mine exept without 2-tone paint, cause he is a fireman. though he is lucky his dad is the cheif or he wouldnt be aloud to work there.

before you say anything, make sure you actually know something.
