Fast cars are a passion of mine but my hobbies led me to buy my truck.

Woodworking, kayaking, camping, fishing, off-roading, and hauling the dogs to an outdoor get-away is what led me to buy my latest vehicle.

2013' F150 super crew 4x4 with 6.5' bed. I love the modded "stock" look so I added my magnaflow muffler and had them weld back on the stock tip. Next mod was a simple K&N cold air intake.

Recently, I added my A.R.E. CX bed cap with the Yakima tower rack. More mods to come in the future!

Just installed my cap led lights. They are wired to a switch in the bed so I can turn them off and on whenever I want without the truck being on.

Found this ez-down tailgate assist at the auto parts store. I love this thing. Don't have to worry about the tailgate slamming down now.

I appreciate it! The steps were easy but for some reason I always make things a pain the butt.

Did some fishing today with my dad out in aransas pass, TX. The truck held an extreme amount of fishing gear and as you see two kayaks. Eventually, I will buy a splitter for my roof rack that allows two kayaks up there. Truck handled all the sand and even a little mud we found. Luckily on the trip home it down poured heavy heavy amounts of rain. I was glad to get some of that sand and salt off my truck!!
