Hello

Hey. My name is Brian and I just joined. I'm a member of another F150 forum and I've been there for about 2 years now. I bought my F150 April of 2007 and I LOVE IT!!!

I have a 2007 XLT 2WD SuperCrew 5.4 v8. I work for the Intermodal division of Norfolk Southern railroad here in Jacksonville, Florida and I love it.

I'm currently looking to add a 2.5" leveling kit and 20" wheels with a 33" tire. I posted in the "wanted" section so if any of you have any of these parts that you're trying to get rid of then just let m know and maybe we can work something out. Here are some pics:








I'm also a HUGE engine freak. I just sold a 1995 Trans Am that I fully built. I really wanted an LS1 when I bought it but it was such a great deal that I couldn't pass it up. A guy that I know offered me a wonderful price on the car so I decided to sell it so I've got a little bit of money to play with right now.

That's a very clean looking truck man! If you're really into engine performance, then the first thing you want to do is get a good programmer and a cold air intake. If you want to hit the ground running, you can always get a supercharger. I see you have an aftermarket dual exhaust, magnaflow?

Thanks for the compliment!!

I actually have the Flowmaster 40 series exhaust and I love the sound!!! I've heard that Magnaflow is better for performance but I'm looking more for sound.

I'm wanting to give it the off-road look. I'm planning on getting a CAI down the road. I have looked into superchargers but I don't want to fork out over $5k for one.

The 40 is a really good sounding muffler, especially when you get on it! The S/C's are ridiculously expensive, that's why I won't be doing any forced induction for a long time. Right now, the PHP Gryphon programmer is the best one out there, and it works in conjunction with your other mods, (CAI, exhaust, etc), but they're about $400.

Thanks y'all!!! I love this color too. It's not my favorite but they didn't have black when I got mine so I settled for this color. I'm actually thinking of goinga different route with my truck. I'm still on the fence on whether I want to lift it or throw some 24's on it and drop the rear a few inches.

JBMX...I've gotta work today from 8am-8pm but I'll PM you later about a sig.

Thanks again!!!

F150online doesn't take sloppy seconds. So go ahead and tell your buddies at the other site that you're here now.

I'm j/k, but anyway, I have a 2.5 AS lvl kit for sale. Powder coated, brand new. Some guy might be buying it today, if he doesn't, I'l let you know.

Welcome to the site. Get ready to spend lots of money.

Thanks!!

JNC....I'm still trying to decide what I want to do with the truck so if you get a chance to sell the leveling kit then go ahead and sell it. My main goal is to buy an off-shore boat this summer so mods to the truck are going to be limited

Thanks again!!

Yeah, when my engine and trannie went out I took her there to get fixed. I drive by it everyday. Not the best dealership in the world...
