It only took 38 yrs; but 24 hours ago I bought this F150...

So I've owned countless vehicles over the years; many cars and trucks. Well I should say I thought I had trucks, as 2 were Rangers and 2 were Dodge Dakotas.

Was I wrong, yesterday I bought my first truck - a 2003 F150 Heritage Supercab 4x4. This is one nice truck. I drove six hours into another state to pick her up. I traded my 2005 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited for her. I had been searching the internet for about a week and came upon my truck to be.

Did I say this is a nice truck!! She has a great paint job - two tone Black/Silver, a 5.4 Triton, XLT Package, 4x4 Supercab, power adjustable pedals, Chrome Side Bars, CD Stereo, and Tow Package. I added all new tires this morning as the ones in the pics were really bad. I added Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo's 265/70/17.

I couldn't figure out how to add pictures here , so check out my album at https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...-supercab.html. I added a bunch of pics there.

Anyway just wanted to say, "hey" to all the fellow F150 owners out there, as I've now been one for 24 hours

Select the pic you want to post and enlarge it. right click on it and click on properites. Copy the url. go to the message box where you are posting. Click on the icon in the upper right that looks like mountains on a yellow background. Paste in the line that pops open.

But was an 05 wrangler really a fair swap? Just wondering..

You must be implying I took advantage of the dealer, since I'm the one with the F150. The wrangler needed a little body body work. They had what I wanted and I had what they wanted...

Thanks for all the welcomes everyone...

I've always believed so, but seems like it would be a pretty easy mistake to make,

Great looking truck man, welcome to the site
