Let it run for 10 minutes and backed it in garage before shutting down, disconnected battery terminals so I lessen the chance of redoing this next time.

Shot this cold idle exhaust video also.

Can we swap step bars? I want those step bars so bad. Truck looks good too!
Oddly enough, my F150 has been the easiest on batteries vehicle I have ever owned. Replaced the OEM battery in 2009, and I left the truck to sit for a long time, like from October last year until I guess April / May this year. I lgot lucky and was able to top the water off and give it a good slow charge and it took...

As far as what I did with it today. Weather was evil nasty windy, cold, rainy, minor flooding etc... so the Satty stayed in the driveway and the truck went to work with me...

Pumped out the 120k coolant in my reservoir, pumped a half gallon or so out. Wasn't very dark but still a tint darker than gold. Had some straight motorcraft coolant gold left over from 2010 so topped it off 50/50. Something to do in yesterdays boredom.

Picked it up from the dealership after having a fair amount of work done. First time actually driving it for nearly a month, I am reminded of how much I hate the front doors on Supercrews '04/'08 for being so short windowed. My comfortable sitting position lines up 50/50 with the end of the window. Probably the only thing I miss about my 2004 Supercab was the front glass visibility.
