Default New guy, first truck

Greetings all!

New to the truck scene. Came over to this forum from SVTP (same name)! Sold my 03 terminator and bought a 2010 black STX. (my first truck)

Not really looking to mod the truck too much but I have a few mild ideas. But thats how the mod bug starts huh?

Anyways, glad to be here and I'm sure I'll be hitting up the resident experts for info. (Don't worry, I'll do my homework and search for the answer first)

Welcome. What part of Ohio are you from? Do you miss the Cobra?

I'm in Sidney, a little ways sw of you. I don't miss it so much right now, but ask me again in the spring. I sure my answer will change.

We have had a few "healthy" conversations on svtp in the "doughnut shop" if you recall.

Your 10th anniv. is one of my favs on svtp. Beautiful car!

Thanks for the welcome.

I thought your handle looked familiar from svtperf. We've had some words over there but you're one of the few members that seem to be pretty level headed so please take no offense.
Sometimes things are said to get a rise out of certain people.
Nice seeing you over here

None taken!

Thanks man, I feel a little out of place over at svtp now that I sold my 03. I'm sure it won't be my last though. Just needed to drop a few toys for now.

I've thought of selling my cobra a few times since I rarely drive it. Not that I don't like to, it's just that I won't drive it to malls etc...basically I attend several car shows and events throughout the summer then our lovely Ohio weather turns to you know what and the car will sit for 6 months.
I was pretty busy this summer and it rained out quite a few of the events we go to so I only put 700 or so miles on the car. But at the same time if I sell it I know I will regret it later.
I've been thinking of trading it for a C5 Z06 (I've always wanted a Vette) but then I will fit the sterotype....50 years old with a Corvette...LOL.

Did you buy a 4x4? I couldn't believe how nice the new F-150's ride and feel.

Yes, I got the STX 4x4. I didn't want to take a chance with a long commute to work and being essential personnel. Didn't want to get stuck or anything is some ridiculous snow storm.

I am very happy with the truck so far.

I feel ya on never driving the cobra. I work a ton of overtime, don't drive it to work, work weekends, have small children, etc.. It just wasn't practical for me right now. I put maybe 1k miles on it this year.

Maybe by the time you get tired of yours I will be in the market for a new one. Not too many still out there as well cared for as yours.
