Selva1,
What type of exhaust configuration do you have. I noticed that you had a "wish list" entry for dual flowmasters, but your truck definitely is not exhaling through Ford stock exhaust (if that sound file that you embedded is your truck's exhaust sound). BTW, nice web page !
------------------
1999 F150 4x4, dark blue, 5.4l auto, Manick brush guard, KC Hilites, tinted windows, K&N air filter without airbox, Gibson side swept exhaust, bedliner, toolbox, Uniden CB with whip, and now, an appointment with Dr Ford for open heart surgery (to replace a Piston Slap'in Engine)...

Oh geez.....was re-reading the posts to your thread, guess that the sound that is embedded in your page is a flowmaster, would you know what type of Flowmaster it is (40, 50, 70 series)? I have the Gibson side swept, but it doesn't have the rumble that I like to hear. The exhaust sound on your page is the best quality recording that I have heard so far on the web.....

Ah hell, was re-reading your threads again, and now have discovered that it probably is a 40 series flowmaster, must've got up too early this Sunday morning, gonna go get some coffee now.......
Inherited my 'blue blood' from my dad, who used to hot rod a '55 Ford. By the time he put Ford's 'LeMans' cam in the '67 Mustang fastback I was hooked. All my cars/trucks have been fords except for one Mazda. Got to go and check out your site now!
I just "defected" from the blue-oval for the first time in 16 years. But, it's not entirely my fault. Ford doesn't build a 2-door coupe anymore. At least not until 2001 when they make my new T-bird!!
BTW, I finally updated my website.

I guess I can say that I am Ford Blue Too, cause I've only owned 3 fords so far, a 83,93,89. My dad WAS Ford blue, and hopefully needs dyalasis to turn the blood blue: he had about 19 ford trucks since he was 20
65,69,70,71,73,74,75,84,85,86,87,89,90,91,92,93,94 ,95,96. All Trucks too
65,69,70,71,73,74,75,84,85,86,87,89,90,91,92,93,94 ,95,96. All Trucks too
I have been "blue blooded" since birth. I have been driving since 1984 and by list of vehicles since then is as follows:
1975 Mustang II Mach I edition w/302
1976 F100 Custom (ex. delivery truck that was beat half to death before I got it)
1976 F100 Explorer
1978 Granada (don't ask)
1981 Escort
1983 Mustang GLX convertible
1990 Ranger XLT 4X4
1984 Lincoln Town Car (Inherited from Grandfather)
1994 Ranger XLT Ext. Cab 4X4
1994 Bronco E.B.
1995 Thunderbird V8
1995 F150 XLT 4X4 ext. cab
1997 F150 Lariat ext. cab 4X4
Strayed from the blue twice:
1969 Ch*vy El Camino (paid only $300, it ran & I needed transportation)
1987 Chrysler LeBaron Convt. (Loved the looks, couldn't stand the quality)
Ford has me so frustrated with their current "We don't give a rat's butt" stance on my out of warranty repairs for piston slap and cracking doors, that I'll look very carefully before I take my check book to the Ford dealer again.
In the mean time, I'll enjoy my truck until the doors fall off and engine blows up.
