Just curious

Anyone else out there still driving their 6.0 without any mods? My Truck is all original except for the 2 new batteries I put in last week.

Except for an A.R.E. hard tonneau, a B&W turnover hitch, and a Prodigy brake controller mine's totally stock. Oh yeah...almost forgot the Husky floor mats. Not exactly a walk on the wild side.

LOL. Just today I was contemplating modding the in-dash holder to keep the plastic arm from snagging on my coffee mug handle. Maybe there's hope for me yet.

speaking of cup holders, I need to replace mine. The driver side arm is busted clean off at the hinge. The armrest is too far back for me, so... "to bad so sad" for the passenger!

Sorry but I couldn't help you out there. Not even my fender badges are safe from my sickness.

Mine is bone stock. I don't even have a dealer emblem because I ordered it from the factory. I have no intention of doing anything to it. I did put some different tires on it. Conti trac was lousy in the snow and ice in alaska. I also plan to drive it until I'm too friggin old to climb in and out of it.

Bought mine used 2005 F350 cc lb srw 4x4 with 84k miles, have put 4k on it. More power than I am use too, but I did move up from a small block v8 f150. This is the last truck I PLAN on buying. "Knock on wood."
