tunaslayer- Nice! I'm really liking the light bar you have up front! we got about 8 inches at one time but since then we've only had dustings and an inch or two total, so although driving the backroads is no longer treachourus, climbing snow piles is still a good time.
skull31, I love that truck! it looks as close to a 3/4 ton as any f150 will ever come. mud tires on stock rims are badass imo. did you add marker lights on the front bumper?

Yes i did,i added 4 ofthem.N also marker lights on my mirriors.I actually cut into my mirrior housing so it looks stock.Thanks for the compliments.I think it looks pretty sweet.Here is a pic of my bumper lights.If your wondering,yes those are lights built right into my grill itself.

I climbed a snow bank at school. My hitch was about 1" off the ground.
Sorry about the crappy cell phone pic.

Wow i didnt even notice the lights in the grill I think cause they looked stock to me. Great job. Please dont take offense to this and by the way all of it looks really cool but why did you do the mirrors so sleek and the grill lights sleek and sexy and then put the kinda not so sleek marker lights on. Please dont take offense but I just thought you can get a little more rounded ones maybe led kinda like the raptor ones. But super cool man and you got a great skill its hard to change something thats made a certain way but you hit the nail on the head. I cant stop looking at the grill it looks almost mustang-ish, all of it looks good man keep it up.

Went out the other night with my buddy and his f250.... Picked a bad night as it was freakin windly and cold on the prairie! Snow had a 2-3in crust and under that the snow was like sand. Nittos preformed very well! Chewed through snow that was rubbing the rockers no problem. Got stuck a few times but only had to get out the rope a total of 4 times. 2 for both trucks. Too bad neither of us brought a camera! I had my cell but it doesn't have a flash. Finished up around 12 that night.

The next morning we took the dogs out there and to our surprise there were 2 dodges struck! A dually 1 ton and a 1500 that was lifted 8" with 35s and he couldn't make it through the trail my truck made! ha ha!! Silly Dodges..

I've had my truck for 2 years and I live in south dakota and I've only been stuck in the snow. The first year I had the truck I only got stuck once and I was pulled out by a payloader and this year I was pulled out by a tractor and several different trucks because I got stuck a lot this winter.
