My first FORD

Just picked up myfirst ford 05 F250 4DR, V10, 21K mi.,3" or 4" exhaust syst.(not sure), 10in fabtech lift, 18"rims w/ 35" nitto tires.... Truck looks like new in and out. (I need to get some pics taken and post)

I've waited a few years to get one of these (not that I expected a lifted truck) But it sure is fun to drive around above most everyone..

Look foward to talking with all of you when Its time to make some more mods.

Glad to see Im not the only one who drives a GAS truck!

Welcome to the BSEG club and the V10 forum, sounds like you got a good looking rig

Some of us already know many of the questions you are going to ask...

The answer will be 4.56 or 4.88

Congrats on the "new" truck!

If it hasn't been re-geared as Fred suggested, the performance will be a little "off". Still, I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as we enjoy ours.

Your First Ford !!! Man,I learned to drive on a 55.....Ford Pickup
The year was 1964 and I was 14 years old. I've been hooked ever since and I guess you could say I am brand loyal to to the point of being stupid because some of my Fords have been less than kind to me but my all time favorite is the same as yours, an 05 3 valve V10..................mmmmmmmmmmmm one sweet ride....ENJOY!

Congrats on your purchase and welcome to the V-10 side of life. This is a great group of people to hang out with! I've driven lots of Fords and this vehicle is the best. It plain rocks!
