Part of the deal was they fix the seat (leather is all worn out on drivers side from sliding in and out) plus fix the back up camera which is glitching once in a while. They just didn't have the parts. The truck was literally only on their lot for 2 days.

I feel like that's a common problem with ford seats, the expo has a whole there and so does the 250.

What!? How did I never know about those no moe wasted money on fuses lol.

Black grilles look tougher than chrome grills, that's just life in the ford lane.

Lol sorry work has been holding me hostage lately, I got my expy console and just updated the 08 dash swap thread. I will probably be ordering a new (out of a totaled truck...not new new lol) 08+ headliner this week. I am going to try and make major progress on the dash/interior while its cold and then move back to the rear end as it starts to warm up and I get the rest of my parts in. Once the axle is completely dropped I am going to do little things like mount the hangers etc to the rear so I can POR the frame when it's warm again.

It was a brisk -9 F on my way to work this morning. It was cold enough that the brake pedal felt stiff and power steering was still cold after letting truck warm up. First turn I made, it didn't want to recenter....

I can't wait to be somewhere sunny and 75 ***with a cold beer in my hand***
