Thanks for the warm welcome to the family.
As far as mods go, lets just say I don't have any immediate plans for any.
What my feelings are for Ford & SVT to do is a different story.
They would be something on the lines of a stronger more reliable powertrain (rods, clutch packs, ect.), lower it at least 1/2 if not 2/3. Install adjustable shocks (not only for drags but also for autocross type driving), address the traction issue (traction bars, cal-tracs?), In other words build the truck that it seems almost everyone here on this forum is in the process of building or wants to build, only from the factory. (Not intended to take any respect or money away from any of the tuners). It needs a little more reliability as a daily driver.
Ford & SVT have built the baddest production street truck currently out there, but it seems to be slowly losing it's exclusivity. Putting the L powertrain into the HD and than possibly any other bodystyle, It dosen't seem to make that much sense to me.
Also I would like to see Ford back up legitamate warrantee issues without immediately voiding it for a chip or filter.
Sorry for the long post.

Bah... those jobs sound too tough. Especially the Ford warranty thing, talk about overworked...
I hear Victorias Secret is looking for a talent search coordinator.
or how about M166 supercharger senior repair tech. Now that'd be great... or something.

I don't have any class 3 of my own, but I fell in love with firing full auto at a few demonstrations at my gun club.
Over the years I was fortunate enough to try 20-25 different class 3 weapons.
Also gotta love 50 BMG sniper rifles.
