so i was at the stealership the other day getting the wifes car in for some warranty stuff. When i see this badass looking f150 on the lot. Hood scoops and gunmetal grey, real nice looking truck. every option under the sun. then i see the price tag! OMFG 61,590.00$ holy **** ...this new ? it was labeled as an F150 FTX i was impressed but not 61,000 worth of impressed.

Ya' think you could build one nicer than that lets say if you bought a 35k F150 and started adding aftermarket options?

I think so.

 

looks like a bunch of cheap-o glue on mods.... for a whole lot of $$$.

Not a fan, but to each his own.

 

Not much substance for a $60K+ custom truck if you ask me. Appears to be a $30K FX4 with about $5K worth of aftermarket stick ons.

Personally I would think for ~$30K you could put together one heck a custom truck on your own.

 

I've seen that ugly truck before, I thought it was the owner who did it!

You can buy a new FX4 for $$$ off sticker, and get real mods that actually look good for a lot less money.

Proper lift kit, nice shocks, actually good looking wheels, engine mods, audio mods, etc. for far less money.

 

Just one ugly truck!

 

Sad thing is there's more than one.

 

They have ones at my stealership that are lifted 6", pro comp wheels and tires, top of the freaking line. Not sure what the f150 price was but the f350's lifted with every option under the sun were msrp'd at around 70k But DAMN they were SEXY

 

same thing as my truck bud... the body kit cost a total of MAYBE $2k..

my truck was so badly overpriced new it was unreal... gotta love ebay though

4 years and 50,000 miles with ME driving and she's STILL ticking...

one day i'm gonna get rid of that too but until i find exactly what it is

 

 

i have a hair over 30k in my truck with all aftermarkets included. truck bought new. and with todays rebates on them you could build my truck for around 25k im sure. and that still leaves me 30k to try and catch up with that ftx. for that price i would like to see a f150 w/ a 6.0 diesal and a straight axle swap.

 

$60K - for that, WTF!!!! No way. I guess if you have no taste and money to burn, go for it.

Personally, if I HAD to spend $60K on a truck and couldn't bank any of it, you'd be seeing 2 FX4s sitting in my driveway, instead of one that looks like a "Fast and Furious" ricer fan just customized.

 

Wow, I'm surprised to hear not many of you have seen this truck. We have them all over the place in Maryland, they've been around for quite a few years now. I agree though, it's not the best lookin truck IMO. My neighbor had one for a year or so and traded it in. I thought it was slick at first but once I found out how much he payed for it, I changed my opinion. We have a lot of Super Duties with that similar package on the lots around here as well, they are some big **** trucks. I'm pretty sure the price tag for the Super Duties was in the upper 70K.

 

my dealership here does not carry that or any cobra's no roush, no nothing performance, sux, i have to drive 1.5 hours away to see svt, or roush
