Hello all

Bought a new to me 2008 F150 about a month ago. 89k on it. Drove it home about 120 miles from the dealer and brought it to my local repair shop to fix a drivers side exhaust leak. Still sittin there. Told them no rush. Im still driving ol faithful. (A1984 dodge ram w150) So Im here to learn more about the ford and see how it works out for me. Ill get some pics up once I get it home again. I drive truck so Im not home that often.
Thanks

Its not my 1st newer pickup. Ive had a few through the yrs. But this is my 1st ford. Not sure where this truck came from or who had it??? But she was used up. Replaced the styleside box with a flareside box. Exhaust manifold gaskets, Cam chain phazers, new ac condensor and new radiator. Along with tranny cooler lines. Not overly impressed. lol. But now Im in it so deep that I gotta keep it. So Im learning as I go with this one.

Sorry to say that sometimes that's how it goes. Can be a good learning experience though!
