My trucks

Here are my trucks. 1st is my 93F150 XLT LB that I bought brand new & sold it in Oct 09.


Next is my 95 F150 Lightning that I bought in Sept 08. I completely restored it & lowered it


I sold my 93 after finishing the L & started using it as my DD. I was parked at work 11/25/09 when it got hit.


Insurance money bought me this 1 owner 93 F150 4x4 XL.

I'll get a better pic of it soon.

I kept it long enough to get the seat, carpet, headliner, visors, mirror, stereo, amps, etc. out of it before my neighbor bought it. I have had the seat in for awhile & just put the headliner, visors & mirror in yesterday. Carpet w/in a couple of weeks.

That freakin sucks! Especially after you restored it. What happened, what hit it a Dokata?

I loved your trucks. The long bed Lightning clone was neat. I really like your '93 4x4. What are the specs on her? Engine / tranny / gearing / tire size?

A co-worker was turning into the driveway @ work & someone not paying attention hit in the rear & launched him into my truck.

Thanks. It is a XL, 6cyl, 5spd, 3.08, 265/75R15 Yokohama Geolander HTS. Right now it has L seats, headliner, lighted visors, autodimming rearview mirror. Soon to have carpet & stereo out of L installed & headlight relay upgrade done. I'm having a few dents repaired on the pass side & adding a silver 2tone to the middle.

Speed limit is 55 on the hwy in front of the shop so I guess between 30-50 impact. What made the damage to my truck so severe is because his truck went up & over a flowerbed & tree then at a downward angle into me.

The Jeep? It's got 4.56's, Banks header, cat back, d44, d60 and Detroit in the 60. Was going to do a 4:1 but honestly it is low enough as it is. The axle upgrade was mandatory, but they're overkill stout so no worries there, otherwise it sucks on superslab hills, but for what I do with it off road, I can't complain.
