Oh yea , Island lake .. - There another spot past Island lake if you know where to look - A little Clay bottom patch of water , it had that clean blue 'ish color to it.. We call it "Bare A$$ Beach" Because, well , the name sorta splains that one..
Anyway , yea , that's on Kent Lake rd . One more exit east of that, off 96 is Kensington Rd - If you get off on Kensington and go past the Metro Park enterance , you end up by the proving grounds.
Yea , a vid . I have a little still picture/mpeg camera ..

07' here...
My company bought it for me. Was very dissapointed when it showed up at the dealership as it was supposed to have the 5.4. It's an XL with power everything, stock tubular running boards, rear defrogger, AC, skid plates, etc. We get some special package through Ford fleet.
Anyways I added a Edge, Magnaflow cat back, underdrive pulleys, and customized the air cleaner myself.
Running 35" Toyo MT's a canopy, and usually about 500 lbs of crap in back. It does pretty darn good. Had 33's and could not tell a difference in power from upsizing.
I've been toying with the idea of adding E-fans. Anybody have similar combo with some advice on that?

I am I guess a young member on here (17) lol.... But anyhow I have a
1999 F-150 4.6L with 53k miles on it with a K&N 77Series Intake on it and my truck runs fairly good. Defently not the fastest truck by any means, but sure is tough. I love how my trucks shifts hard and how the transmission is solid as a rock. I just wish I could beat a Chevy 5.3L lol.
