    New parts hauler.........

    well, new to me that is.....
    hauling parts from Houston to Oklahoma City via Ovilla........no problem..
    What? An Amarillo road trip......piece of cake..
    Ft Walton Beach..............walk in the park er....stroll on the beach...

    Handed down my 98 extended cab to my son so, I picked up this SuperCrew....much nicer for my passengers to climb in/out....and the 5.4L gets better mpg than the 4.2L V-6 did!!

    BB's right.....F-150's are more fun than Mustangs..............

    Nice, Josh... Be sure to check that cruise control switch.

    I had a 2001 F-150 supercrew.  First someone gave me some free lanscaping blocks to hold it up while they were using my wheels.  Then it caught fire and burned to the ground parked in front of my house.  Upgraded to a 2002 version (with larger V8) after the fire.  Never had trouble with that one.  Kind of wish I had kept it...

    I have a white hood up here if you want to test it as far as parts hauling...

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
