After 4 years of slumming it I'm finally back to right side of things. After months of looking for the right deal I stumbled upon what is now my new truck. On a whim I drove by one of the used car dealerships and spotted a Ford grill in a sea of Rams. A 2011 F150 SuperCab XLT 4x4. For the price, I simply couldn't pass it up. 66k miles, nice looking paint, interior was clean, southern truck, tow package, Texas Edition...paid $18,500. Truck runs strong. I was originally looking for an EcoBoost, but this one has the Coyote in it. I ended up settling with the Coyote motor because I remember how well the mod motors in previous Mustangs responded to aftermarket parts.

So the plan is to get a trailer brake controller installed, some slip on tow mirrors, spray in bedliner, and maybe some modest fender flares to add some character. Then CAI, exhaust, tune, and see where I'm at. I tow a 6400 pound travel trailer, so any extra go power will be well appreciated.

PICS!!!

Pay no attention to the grass...I've been away from the house for 2 weeks.
