She's Gone...

Well, after 12 years and 168,441 miles, the Lightning and I have parted ways. https://www.f150online.com/forums/im...lies/frown.gif

Unreal how well that truck served me over the years. I recently replaced the thermostat and the ball joints and tie rods. Other than regular maintenance items, nothing else was replaced.

I will miss the power and the looks from people admiring her, but it was time to move on.

New Lariat FX4 SuperCrew in the garage now. :-)

If anyone needs some factory or aftermarket Lightning parts, hit me up. I have some stuff still new in the box.

The 5.0

I didn't really "pick" anything. I had been searching for a used later-model truck with lower miles - a tall order around here.

This one showed up and I decided to have a look at it.

2015 Lariat FX4 with 20,XXX miles. Negotiated the price down and then hit them with the Lightning trade as a surprise. I had it in my head I wanted $10K for the Lightning - I was pleasantly surprised when they told me they would give me $11K.

SOLD !!!!
