i drive a lifted 05 f-150, and usually whenever i see another lifted truck, esp a ford they usually give me a head nod, or im the one who does it first..

anyone else do this?

Whenever I see an f150 I wave, why not? Makes me happy seeing another f150 drive by.

I usually get nothing, some people flip me off... I do have the biggest f150 in town, and am the third biggest 1/2 ton in town. Im not lying when i say lifted guys will run over everyone to get up next to me and size up the truck, most get pissed when they are a mirror or so shorter... The only trucks bigger than me in town are not put together well and are bigger becuase of body lifts... now if we are talkin lifted diesels, they always win 8" plus.... In short i keep to myself unless they ask, or im at a show then i gladly tell all.

In traffic it seems lightning owners are stuck-up, at the track a different story. Most are friendly .

I usually only say something to guys with other fords. Short and to the point. "Nice truck". I actually ran into the exact same truck as mine in my town except his had 22'' rims on it. My exhaust sounded better though and ill take that anyday. A sweet exhaust is like the white guys version of rims.

Well depends on the car next to me, most F150's if they are modded a little bit ill give em a nod. If its a normal car ill check it out for a hottie......


And if it is one of these rolling POS, i do this, the whole time we are in sight of eachother.

I almost opened the door on the wrong truck one time. Was coming out of the gas station, not really paying attention, and there was a truck, exactly like mine, parked right beside me. Walked right up to it, then realized that wasn't my girl in the passenger seat, stood there for a second, then realized what was going on. The girls thought it was hilarious.

I rarely wave at other trucks, depends on the situation. Jeeps are another story though, I always wave at fellow Jeeps.

If they wave, I wave. This one guy who also has an identical '07 Harley F150 always blows his horn twice when he sees me. We cool like that. - Og

more often than not, people just gawk at my truck. Those with lifted trucks similar to mine will do the same but smile and nod.

Hey, your inspection sticker expired 2 days ago.

Better get it fixed before Austin PD spots you.
