If you were me...

As you know we're new here. I am developing our online ability to order aftermarket stuff. We are pretty strong already with it offline. I want to start with a selection of 15 to 20 sku's geared to 2004 - 2007 F150. In your guys humble opinion what items should I target? We can ship almost any part next day direct.
PS and yes members will get the grand opening special deals. Thanks in advance

Thanks. We'd love to a Ranger package, we can't keep them in stock right now. But I pounded the pavement at SEMA looking for a lift for the new ranger and nobody has one or any ETA. Rancho showed a 4 inch but I called them it was a one off they will not produce. Do you know why?

I found from the f150 site that most guys want harley heads and tails, the fx2 grills and speed parts, edge superchips etc, air force one intakes and magnaflow exhaust. the 2.5 daystar leveling kits and the westin bars are also a good choice. I have a 2005 sittingin my driveway just waiting for 1 more payment so that it can go back to ford and i already sold off most of my easy bolt on stuff just left with tires and exhaust on it now

Hmmm thats interesting. I was thinking aftermarket and you say the FX2 stuff is popular. The FX2 and Harley heads are the same are they not? I have lots of the Daystars and the Magnaflow systems. I never even thought of the Ford part ideas, thanks. If you are just dropping nthe lease off there is a new process, are you aware? PM me if you wish

We have a huge catalogue of stuff available for any make,model or year but for the initial online stuff we are trying to keep it simple. But any input is much appreciated.

PS first 5 minutes with new high speed wireless at home ! Good bye crappy old 14k analogue dial up and good ridance

well I know down here in the Windsor area for both the truck and the Mustang guys we like our Ford Racing Performance Parts. Only 1 dealership down here is a distributor of the stuff too. I got my ford racing E303 cam off of them and I got a sponsors discount cause of the Mustang site I belong to

How about stuff for a 2001 F-150.

Have a look around the 2004+ F-150 forum and see what people are buying. Or maybe even ask there?
