2008 Reg Cab FX2

Has anyone seen pictures of this mythical creature? This is exactly what I'm looking for in a new truck. I priced mine out at ford.com and it came to 26.8k... I think I may have to pull the trigger on this truck soon!

I'd love to see one myself.

Just add a supercharger and call it a day.

Yeah, it's much better to replace regulators everytime the cable comes unspooled.

Just make sure to stock up on regulators and switches whenever they go on sale . You will be changing them around 30k. Let's hope Ford comes up with sturdier parts the next time you will need to change them.

Just got done building/pricing one of these mythical creatures. Since when is the 5.4 a $1645 option? It was only a $895 option for MY 2004-2007. And we all know they haven't changed a thing on the 5.4. So what gives, Ford?

EDIT: So on the Scabs and Screws, the 5.4 is only an $895 option. So, really, what gives, Ford? Why the almost 2x increase for this engine in the Reg Cab?
