Time for a change..

Driving home from work last Wednesday when this happened:





Insurance company totaled it Monday, and I decided it was time to step bak into a truck, so I replaced it with this:

2011 Lariat, 2WD, 6.2L







Not sure what the plans are for it long term.. for now I am going to do the exhaust, then just drive it for a bit.

Nice to be back in an F150, even though I absolutely loved my SHO.

Looks like it is time for a new sig pic.

Very Nice! Sorry about the SHO. You also picked up one of the elusive 6.2 lariats as well, nice. If you dont mind my asking, did you get a good deal on the 2011 seeing as how the 2012's have been here for a while?

man, I wonder who will get the engine out of the SHO? It appears to be untouched from your photo. Congrats on the truck and glad you're ok.

No idea. the adjuster thought it would go for 14 - 16k @ the auction. The car is perfect from the back seat forward, other than being slightly crooked.. lol ..

I would imagine the drive train is pretty intact.

Thanks. Didn't realize how much I missed driving one until I brought this baby home.

Sorry to see that SHO totalled. New truck is beautiful though, get some wheel locks for those 20's if you don't have them. Have any pics of the SHO before the wreck? Those are nice cars..

It was the second .. first one was self inflicted and very minor (just a dinged wheel)..

and yes, it was running a Livernois Stage 4+

so it might have been me you were thinking of..
