I rolled 50K on the Wood yesterday! Heres to another 50 with the best truck ever built!

Here's to that! I've got 41 on mine but I figure if it really is as good as I think it is maybe it'll be good for 200 more, long as I keep it in the garage and stay up with any maintenance that's needed.

I've found the F150 shocks make a dramatic improvement in the ride and I disconnected the leveler link which also helps a lot. After driving 1/2-1 hr it figures out that the suspension isn't giving it any feedback and gives me a check suspension light, but the ride has remained level and the light resets on each drive. I'm going to bend the link one of these days and hook it back up. I still plan to look for even softer shocks, probably by taking the old ones for comparison and looking up specs.

Other than that everything's great. I learned the bed lights go out after awhile so I can leave the tonneau up to air it out overnight, which it needed. I got a second CD magazine for xmas and will probably order a couple more (off ebay). And lately I've been playing with the traction control going around corners which has been kinda fun. (My other car is a blown, intercooled and injected MGB-V8 so as you might imagine, I love corners. http://www.britishv8.org/MG/JimBlackwood.htm )

Only thing better than a comfortable ride is a more comfortable ride.

Since the day I got it it has been driven daily to & from work, shopping, couple trips to the track & some hauling of large quantities of items (dirt, rocks, beef, hay bales, etc.) The only time I've left the bed open was during car shows (makes a nice display area while it shows off it's unusual attributes). And my Wood has only been stored inside on the few occasions it has gone to the dealer (they always keep it inside, even on overnight stays).
