Another "New" F150 Owner

Bought this truck about 2 weeks ago, have been VERY pleased with it so far. I upgraded from a 2000 Ford Ranger. Wow, what a huge difference in room, ride, and MPG!

This is a 2005 4.6 V8 scab XLT. I bought it with about 50,000 miles on it. It came with undercoating, running boards, bug shield and an ARE hard tonneau cover. The running boards and bug shield were the first things to go. I also bought rims from another forum member here for a good price and put them on Friday. The first picture is how I drove it home, and the second picture was taken today. Don't know what else I'll do to it besides remote start. I'm not big into spending big money unless it's going to be useful in a day to day fashion.

Oh yeah, I forgot. I also added a Edge Evolution right away because the cluster is in km (even though the truck is a 1 vin). I don't really need the Evo, just something to make speed reading easier until I figure out who I can get to program a new cluster.

Congrats on your new ride. You might miss your Ranger in parking lots but that's about it.
