Just got my "new" truck, now time for the mods

Well, just got back from my trip to NC to pick up my "new" truck.

2002 F150, 5.4, 88k miles. Picked it up for 9k. Probably could of got a cheaper 02, but this is the exact style I wanted. Already has the torsion bars cranked a little, and aftermarket wheels, with 285/75s.
Originally wanted to do black wheels, but once I saw the current ones in person, I like them alot. So they are gonna stay for awhile.

Stuff to come:
1) Fluids flushed and changed
2) New rotors, (pulsing right now.)
3) Regear to 4.10
4) New tires
5) Magnaflow exhaust
6) Marathon seat covers
7) Window tint
8) Thought about doing the gotts, not sure yet.

Figured all that is gonna cost a little under 3k, so its gonna be a lil bit until its all done. Can't wait though. Maybe once that is all said and done, a tuner and cutouts down the road.

Plan B:

Remove nerf bars. Scrap all previous plans. add Supercharger!

I found one exactly like that "back in the day". Sport with Captains seats on the reg cab.

Forced induction is just a fantasy of mine, so I like to project that on others.

If I had the money I would have a s/c stang for sure. I would keep it looking stock and make it the ultimate sleeper.

Guy I work with had a 1998 F-150 XLT reg cab flare side 4x4 5.4 with the captains chairs. He traded it in after 110K miles... On a new Tundra.
