Default My new 2006 4.2 V6 F150. (video,pics).

I just bough it about a week ago now.
Love it so far, great gas mileage. It is really basic but that is how I like it.


How hard would it be for one to tint these windows himself??


Truck has 33,000 miles on it!.

I want to tint the windows. Add a wiper Cowl (the kind that goes over the wipers) and put blackouts on the tails.

Well I took the old Grey steel wheels off and put these aluminum rims on. Then I installed fog lights in the bumper cut out in the middle, and installed a new sound system. Next is exhaust. Is your a manual?

Very nice trucks guys. I'd trade my 5.4 xlt for a base model 4.2 manual anyday.
