Default New truck!

Just got home from going to the bank and signing the loan/paperwork.

It's a 2005 F150 Supercrew 4x4. Has a dent in the driver's front fender and a little rust starting, but for the price, I couldn't pass it up. The fender and rust will be fixed after this winter when I can save up a little more money






Now my Monte doesn't have to see snow and salt I'm pretty excited but I have a feeling some mods are in store for this. Probably some new tails and projectors as money allows. Then bigger tires, lift/leveling kit, blah blah blah, JK! Now I really need another job

Id get rid of the marker lights across the bottom. Other than it being a Ford it looks like a nice truck.

Thanks! It's definitely a good feeling. I always felt bad having the salt and crap all over it for 2-3 months of the year. Going through a car wash a few times a week got to be pretty expensive. Definitely won't miss that part lol.

Thanks, I'm not a huge fan of the orange lights. Maybe they'll look cooler if I tint them black so they're not so obvious during the day
