New Owner !!!!!!!!!!!
Hey folks. Just got myself a brand spankin new 2008 F-150. 4x4 4.6L auto.
Had 2.1 miles on her. Got 220 miles 6 hours later. Already lifted the back tire a few times taking it over the rocks. Got it a little muddy and even a few tree rubs. I LOVE this truck. 4wd system is awesome and its got plenty of power too. Gonna order some new tires though. The stock tires are crap. Does a lot better off road than my uncles Z71. Just wanted to share my elation and enthusiasm. Hope to chat with u folks a bit while I upgrade my truck.

Good deal. Lots of responsibility at a young age. I am 22 and this is my 1st brand new vehicle. I have always had beaters in the past.

Will have some up soon. Ripped out the stock muffler and put a Flowmaster single chamber muffler with turndown on it. Sounds soooo good now. Not too loud not too quiet. Just right.

I'm thinking of getting the same truck as you. The one I am looking at is 4.6 4X4 Sport package. The sticker is $30,000, but the salesman says that Ford is running employee pricing now. I believe it is an FX2. Crew cab. Going back tommorow to talk about payments.

Could it be a STX 4x4?
