hey guys new to this paticular site, been using info from this and a few others like it for years, yaya i shoulda joined years ago, beat me with a sock.
anyway i need some input and ideas about what truck to pick out they both have there ups and downs and i dont want to pick one and then later decide i should have gone wih the other!
so option 1 is http://www.cargurus.com/Cars/invento...sting=43809619

i dont know what motor it has or the price but im hoping for a 5.4 and its 87 miles away but its SWEET lookin

option 2 is http://www.cargurus.com/Cars/invento...sting=43806884

and i dont know if its 4wheel drive and it has the 4.6 =/ there both pretty freagin sweet lookin!

theres pros and cons to each but there minor once tomarrow rolls around i should know more as they are closed today.
if it matters what i want to do is
*cold air intake
*throttle body
*aero exhaust
any advice and thoughts would be muchly appreciated.

Well the 2008 is an stx which means it will also have the 4.6
i like the 2008 better either way! Hopefully you get the truck you want.

The 2006 is a lifted 2wd STX with a 4.6. The 2008 is a 4wd STX with a 4.6. Get the 08.

Forget the intake and throttle body - just do a Gotts mod to the stock airbox.

well thx for all the advice Ive decided to with the 08 price, condition depending if its not sold yet, I just got back from driving the 06 and it was in ruff condition all 4 tires had plugs, scratches all down the side, the cloth was stained black, the a/c barely worked, it had the oddest smell ever it was just like old bo and wet dog, blegh lol, and to top it off the motor has a tick, leaking freeze plug and leaking from the power steering pump and somewhere else, and they told me it was the belts and pulleys making that horrible sound =p lol

btw im looking into that gotts mod, thx

I guess i could always just get a stock f150 and give her a small lift myself
