Hello all Ford enthusiasts! I've been lurking on the forum and decided to join up, there is a lot of great information and feedback here. I recently sold my German sports car and purchased a used 2006 White Ford F150 XL Triton with the 4.6L V8 engine. It has 166K miles, is very clean and appears to have been maintained well. It was a fleet truck so it doesn't have much other than the stock radio, PS, PB, etc.

Like many of you I am interested in modifying my truck - without spending a fortune. I'm working on the sound system right now.

I would like to know your thoughts on pin striping though. I'm in the Dallas area and would like to get some quotes on some fairly simple striping jobs. Anyone have thoughts / suggestions for me? I'm also curious about the factory badges, if I pull them off will there be holes in the fenders where they are located? This happened to me on my Ranger years back.

Thanks - I look forward to the forum.
