Square Grouper,

Welcome aboard FTE! GREAT looking truck. If you get the notion, reply back and tell us more about the truck: year, engine, 4X4?, interior package, etc...

Just one question though: are you certain it's a "she" and not a "he"? Awfully bad lookin' dude to be a lady! She must be on steroids!!!

Daryl

Still Haven't figured out the he or she thing yet. Here's some info on the truck:

2004 F250 XLT Crew Cab
6.8 V-10
4x4 FX4 Package

Cloth interior, dual power seats, CD & Cassette & more. Ford throws in the bedliner and anti-theft system they promised me tommorow. Just turned 350 miles and i'm debating an oil change for the heck of it at 500. Can't hurt. Definately want to get a sweet exhaust, possibly a chip and some more air in the beast. Those will probably be the first mech mods. Already ordered full set of custom seat covers and mats. Would like to put a lift on and some larger rubber, but need to do some research on the warranty. I got the 5yr 100,000 mile waranty and don't want to screw that up!
