My New Baby!

Well, after getting rid of an 05' FX4 FS in the only color that really matters (bright red)...I decided I missed the truck more than the payments...so I bought another one.

Here's the specs...

2007 SCab FX4 Bright Red/Grey Flareside (of course!)
18" Wheels
Luxury Package
Black Leather
All options excpept Nav and Rev Sensors

Boy, I'm like a kid in a candy store. I didn't realize how much I missed it until I was driving the 300 miles home after picking it up from the dealer.

I got an okay deal and since I'm gonna keep it this time until the wheels fall off, I went with the 0% financing. The dealer had all the paperwork done and ready for me to sign...nice and simple...best buying experience I've ever had. Thanks to the Internet Sales Dept at Mnt View Ford in Chattanooga!

I guess I need to start saving for the Line-X Xtra Black liner and Troyer Stage 1!

Now, how should I break this bad johnny in?

It's great to be back! Pictures to come...

Welcome back! Nice truck you have there. One mistake though? DSG really is the only color that matters!

Anyway, congrats on the new ride and post more pics soon!

Calling a truck a "baby" is like refering to Ronnie Coleman as "tiny."

Anyway, nice flareside.

More Pics

Here's some better pictures...






I'm a nitpicker by nature and there are only two things I don't like 100% about this truck. First, the gap between the bumper and the fender in front of the front wheels. Second, I had the black H-Bar grill in my last truck and I think it makes the truck look more aggressive than the body colored grill. Where can I find a black one?
