Can't seem to post a direct link but check out the 2005. Just when I've been thinking that I pretty much have to keep my truck forever because of gas and resale value of trucks...look what I found. The price seems pretty good considering the extras it has. The hideous wheels would have to go and the hard bed cover might have to come off. I'm a little leery of buying a used vehicle with a supercharger but I guess you roll the dice with any used vehicle purchase. Funny thing is I'm pretty sure I remember when we installed the blower at the Ford dealer where I used to work, truck looks identical. If it wasn't such a lousy time to buy/sell a truck I might consider it but the way things are now...it's still fun to look.

I have a thing for regular cabs so that one jumped out at me. Supercharger doesn't hurt either... They don't know how to list their vehicles but I've never seen a dealer that does. My dad used to work at their body shop so I know for a fact that the sales department is retarded. Not that I can afford to swap trucks right now anyway.

Those rims would be on eBay 10 minutes after it got off the lot along with that hard top and grille. Is it a 4.6 or 5.4?

FX4 means it got the 5.4. Plus Roush doesn't make a SC for the 4.6.

From what I have been told, that is correct. Atleast not the one in our trucks. The stangs have a couple of options I think, but not us.

You shouldn't have boo one issue with the blower. Everyone I know with a Roushcharger has had no problems, including myself. That trucks in great condition. It's just the fact it's a standard cab is why it's so cheap.

If you're in the Springs area and want to really take one for a real spin (meaning, getting up on it), PM me.

It's not. You're talking about a 30 bhp difference in pure trim. You'll get that much in a true dual exhaust anyway. Trust me.

I wasn't worried about the blower itself, more concerned with how the truck was flogged...er driven by the previous owner. Not that I would cut it any slack either, but at least I know how my stuff is maintained. I'm also curious why someone unloaded a late model low mileage truck, but the answer to that is probably down the street at the gas station. And like I said, I'm happy with my current truck. Just makes me think when I see something like that.
Thanks for the offer Roush, I may take you up on that sometime. What's your truck look like? I may have jumped you in my Mustang at the I25/GOG onramp a couple of months back.
