Rims are 22" Boss 311's and the tires are Toyo Proxes ST's 302/40R22

Sorry about that. I have a 2/3 Roush drop kit with an extra 2" rear shackle kit, Roush shocks and stabilizer bar, K&N Cold Air, Flowmaster dual exhaust, NOS 100 shot, Predator chip (when not using NOS), throttle body spacer, Roush grill. That's about it for now.

its a clean looking truck. if it were mine i would loose all the roush decals besides the ones in the actual chrome badges and get a smaller tach but to each their own. but the truck looks killer. have you got any track times on it? also what percent tint do you have on it?

Your truck looks really good. Im going to have to agree with styx on losing the huge tach, or integrate it into the dash somehow with a custom pod so its not sooo visible on the dash. If you want some ideas pm me.

Also a billet for the bumper would look nice.

One last thing that would set your truck off on the exterior would be some xlt/lariat power mirrors painted to match the black.
i may have some up in the classifieds soon
I really hate the manual mirror look.


I never figured out why roush starts with the base xl-stx trucks in the first place.

I'm not talking bout rubbing when you turn the wheel, I'm talking about rubbing when you hid dips in the road doing 70 in a 35

I would love to see a charcoal 2004-2008 F-150 with the current Expedition monochrome front end on it. MY GOD I bet it would be sexy. Photoshop masters?
