Nice visual on the colors

My first truck was an 88 F150 with the surf orgy blue and I didn't mind it then, but I'm glad I have gray in the rig I have now.

Nice pickup digicon. It has to be one of the most intact, straight, and clean I've seen in our body style.

the tan is ok.that gray interior grows old really fast though.it's extremely bland and feels very cold and industrial eventually.
i prefer the warmth of the red myself.

I have the gray but I bought new headliner material today. I'm doing black headliner, carpet, seats, and console to break it up a bit. I'm not a fan of just done solid color no matter what color it is. Everyone has their own preference though.

I agree yours looks good. But around here, its hard to find a red or blue interior in that kind of shape, I.E. not faded and nasty looking. Good looking in this pic though.

Finally got around to posting:

My 1996 F250 4x4 460. Bought it about a year ago of a older ford mechanic, garage kept with 82,000 on it. Just hit 100,000 not to long ago. So far just tinted it and fixed the small mechanical issues it had. Coming soon, 4inch lift, fuel rims, and some 33s.











And a shot from winter covered in snow

the factory oil pressure sending unit, the previous owner had put in a mechanical oil pressure gauge instead of replacing the sending unit..wtf?. My first thought was one of those lines or something, but we capped it at the T and fired it up and it started pissing out of the sensor itself...not 100% sure how that happens but it did. new sensor, oil filter and 4ish quarts of oil and she sprang to life with no odd noises thus far.
