I don't know if I would do that to my truck or not but it is unique!! I think it would look better with a shorter boot on the shifter.

I just happened to see this truck in the galleried on F150World and thought that I would share it with you.

BFS, that is a great picture and a great idea, but i have automatic trans with the manual transfer case shifter. it sits up and to the left of where a manual trans shifter would be. i was just wondering if it would fit or would i have to modify it a little, and if so, how would i go about doing it. just looking for some ideas on how to get that awesome console into my truck.

Not to sound critical but wouldn't that sort of defeat the purpose of the whole switch? Thought it was to give you more useable space instead of that hole on the floor. On the other had it does look great. Good job BFS!
