So as some of you may know I had a 2005 F150:


I had to unfortunately sell it because it just couldn't handle the tasks I was throwing at it. So I flew down to Florida and drove back up a 2006 F450!


The first things I am going to do to it is of corse detail it inside and out because it looks like it has NEVER been washed or cleaned EVER! The next mod is OEM fog lights for some extra light, and I wanted to get those bright white LED construction flashers that are on most highway construction trucks. So if anyone knows any good kits to use for this let me know! Thanks guys!

 

Uhh - yeah - it will definately do the 'duty' - pretty cool!!

 

reacon makes a good strobe kit, i want them

 

What exactly is it that your going to be using that badboy for?

 

thats one hell of an upgrade

 

Thats exactly what i was thinkin lol

 

That's exactly what I need.

 

haha yeah it was a BIG upgrade. I own a landscaping/maintenance company so thats why I need it. I was looking into getting a 250 last year, then I said screw it i'm gonna have to upgrade in a year so I was gonna get a 350. I thought about it and said screw it cuz Ill have to upgrade after 2 years, so I just went straight for the 450 because it will take A LOT for me to outgrow this now. Only has 28,000 miles on it, and 1500 engine hours. It's got a Turbo diesel which is killing me in gas but in the long run its worth it. With tax, airline tickets, gas, hotels, and everything I got the truck for just about $35,000. Which I think it a great deal! Im going to pick up my new 52" Stander mower today, so excited! Ill take a good picture of the truck, trailer, mowers, and my workers and post it.

 

I just installed the OEM foglights on my 350 XL. Took about an hour or two, shouldnt but surprisingly the lights are senstitive to ground/power, something that I didnt think of at first. Just make sure that theyre set up right, should run about 150 or so and they fit just perfect and look great.

 

I had a really quick question about warranty information on this truck. I know Ford gives thier Deisels the 36,000 bumper to bumper and 100,000 engine and drive tran. Well when I purchased the truck I was told there wasnt a warranty??? So even though I dont have any warranty paperwork does it still have a warranty???

 

Get some rims, lift, and bigger tires

 

HAHAHA hey why not throw a wing, hydraulics, and put Hernandez in old english letters on the back of the dump bed too!

 

very nice upgrade.

 

I ran the OASIS report on your VIN and everything looks fine. There would be a big red flag if there wasn't a factory warranty still in place.

 

Thanks Tasca, I figured I had some sort of warrany especially since the title is clear and its practically a brand new diesel. By the way can't wait for the fogs and parts I ordered from you guys!
