The Dawg is back in the fold....

Hey everyone!

I am happy to say that I am back with Ford. Sold my '09 Dodge Ram on eBay and just bought a new '09 F150 FX4, and loving it. Before you start flaming me again for buying the Dodge, I have to say that I loved the truck and it turned out looking great with all my mods (you can see it in my gallery if so inclined) but really happy with the new Ford. It is a loaded FX4 with the Luxury Package, Navigation, Sony System, Backup Camera and Sensors, Heated Leather, Sunroof, Tow, Trailer Brake Controller, and so on.

Unfortunately, I am away on travel this week and so I only have a couple of quick pics I took in the garage and won't be able to post any good photos until late next week. But looking to start modding my FX4 with a 2.5-inch lift, 35 inch BFG KM2s, Magnaflow SS exhaust, Pace Edwards Jackrabbit rolling tonneau cover, and Smittybilt lightbar with PIAAs.

Until then, just wanted to say how thrilled I am to be back on the forum. Cheers!

My new FX4:






To jog some memories about which trucks I had here on the forum, I included some other pics of my most recent Fords below.

My 2008 F150 XLT 4X4:


My 2008 F250 FX4:


My 2007 F150 King Ranch 4X4:

Already back, that was quick.. I think you switch vehicles more than my grandpa. Either way welcome back to a ford, looks great and I know it will when you finish modding it like always.

hehe....thanks, but timing is everything! As much as I loved the SD, the 9.9 mpg (City) with the 6.4L and almost $5/gal for diesel (when prices where going crazy back then) was killing me.

How many years in a row have you bought a NEW truck, modded it, then sold it?
I wish I could afford to do that!!
All nice trucks.....
