Im new, Whats up!

Just joined today, thought id make a thread and say hi.

My current rides are a 2002 F-150 XLT Single Cab, and a 1991 Ford Mustang LX

anyways, born in Ohio, living in Louisiana, 30 years old, blah blah blah... on to the pictures....


When i bought my truck...




When someone wrecked into me





The hell with it, if youre replacing, might as well upgrade a little, right?





Anyways, i took off those bed rail chrome things, i plan on getting a kit to lower the back end a few inches, probably some 18-20" chrome lightning wheels, and a hard tonneau cover. I spend too much money on the mustang, so i havent been able to do much to the truck. everything except the front bumper is stock, and once the car is finished, the truck will get some love.

Thanks, unfortunately, it has the 4.6, but being a stang fanatic, im looking at roots and centrifugal blowers to breathe some life into her.

Thanks! I wanted an extended cab, but after driving this for a year, it has really grown on me.

That would be cool We have a constant battle here about the 4.6 vs. 5.4 as far as power with some members

You have a good starting point for a fast truck!!!Short box/reg cab.

Honestly, thats the main reason i joined. I used to go to a mustang forum that was really helpful with products and pictures, and thats what im doing here.. mainly research on what you guys have and what looks good without buying something and realizing 5 minutes after the install that its tacky as hell.

Whats done to the stang???I really like them

Add clear corners to your truck and smoke the tails!!Some nice aftermarket rims and tires would look good also.I'm kinda partial to the lightning wheels though,i've always liked them
