Thumbs up 2005 F-150 XLT 4X4 Build

Hey guys I am Ryan, one the new guys here, but my friends call me STITCH not new to forums or mods! =)

So last Friday I bid and won a 2005 F-150 XLT CREW CAB in True Blue at car dealer auction with 125K miles on it and was pretty clean for NYS truck. Couple tiny spots rust starting in wheel wells and two spots in the bed by tailgate...

Truck already has some mods :
Stock rims but 285/70/R17 Feirce Attitude M/T Tires
Pioneer AVH-P1400DVD Double-Din Radio
Avital Alarm / Remote Start
FORD Plastic Bedliner (REMOVED, going to sell)
Tonneau Cover (Removed for now)

However, I got a great price on it so gonna throw some money at it get tuned up and ready for winter up here! Last winter was nuts I am 2 hours south Buffalo NY they got 67-72" snow at one point!

Here is pic of it the day I bought it!
