2003 Still going Strong

Shortly after my wife and I got married we purchased a brand new 2003 F150 XLT crew cab. Fast forward to yesterday, I just got it inspected for its 20th time. This past summer I replaced the brakes and last week I got new tires. I think this year I'll replace the muffler as it's the original and is quite rusty as well as the shocks as they are as well. The truck has 120k miles which is quite low for a 20 year old vehicle. The Ford is our winter vehicle so our daily driver and our 2004 non-emissions diesel truck can stay rust free. With each passing year, I enjoy the truck just as much as I did when we purchased it. Plus it's nice not having a payment for the last 20 years.

Great to hear about your F-150. You should add a photo of it.

The shock replacement is a great idea. When I replaced my a few years ago, it was a major difference.
