It's you've got a lifted yota. Why lift the f150? I'd drop it and boost it. I'm not a fan of lifted 2wd's. Kinda like throwing Harley badges on a Honda IMO..

im just gonna step out on ledge and say this but it sounds like the truck needs to stay stock if you have sense enough to do 130 and destroy a car thay most of us can only dream of having. Theres a reason most 18 year olds get hondas for their first cars.

Having said that, ditch the lift kit and turbo it, and make a bad pavement pounder out of it. If turbo isnt your style, go talk to magnuson superchargers and they can hook you up with a whole kit, and you'll still have money to spare. If you have a yota for offroading, why do you want another A/T vehicle?

If you are going to get rid of the truck when the 2013s come out why blow the money on this one? Save your 5k and drop it into the new truck. Just my opinion.

That's what I was thinking.. He'll I'd never put money into a truck for mods when I know it's on it's way out in a couple months that's just pointless lol If you really are getting a 2013 then it would be dumb to drop 5k into your truck now because you pay the 5k and put the mods on and only get to enjoy them for a few months and then that truck is on its way out.. And you won't get that 5k back in trade in or selling value

There wouldn't be a 5.4 in a 2013...

From what I have heard, Ford is suppose to ditch 5.0 and bring back the 5.4. Again, that's what I have heard. It's just a rumor. In my opinion, they need to drop a bad *** 351w in a f150.

There is no way on earth that I would ever drive a piece of **** Honda or any ricer car at that. If its not true muscle, then I'll walk. **** ricers. And turboing or supercharging this truck make it a street truck is stupid in my opinion. If I was going to make a street truck i would get an old 1940 model Chevy farm truck and drop a 560 in it.
