I think my F150 looks good because I see other trucks maneuvering to get beside me or in front of me to show me their trucks.
It happens all the time on the freeways in So Cal. Sometimes they are not very subtle.
I used to wave to other riders when I rode a bike, I used to wave to other Tacos when I drove a Tacoma, but there are just too many F150's on the road to wave at.
If the opportunity is there I might try to park near another one in a parking lot, especially if it is not stock, like mine.
Two lifted F150's look very good backed in sitting next to each other at Home Depot.
I sure love my truck!
Completely agree. I get stares very often
I need some more pics now that I've got some Tremor boards!
Love my truck, and it's not a finished product yet(probably never will be)
I've had more than a handful compliment me on my truck in the past two weeks, but I'm sure once it is seen around town more it will start to "blend in" with the locals.
A couple that stand out is one guy was riding past me last Sunday, as he got to my window he started waving the Party On sign and turned completely around in his seat until they drove out of sight. (He was a passenger BTW)
I've also had several people where that come in to do business where I work stop me just to admire the truck......Honestly, outside of this forum Im not use to all of this attention towards anything I own.
I'm not big on lifted trucks, but damn that is a nice looking ride!

Thank you Sir! You could probably call this my mid life crisis build
I have always wanted a lifted 4x4 since watching "The Fall Guy" on TV...sadly not reruns...lol, and have finally built myself what I always dreamed of.
You haven't seen attention until you ride a Ural sidecar rig.
they roll down the widows to talk to you at lights.
point and wave while passing by on the road or from the sidewalk.
Walk up to you while pumping gas can I take a picture.
Follow you and take a video of you with their phones while driving ( that set me on edge)
get pulled over by the cops just because they want to check it out and talk about it.
Off topic: I had some "neck breakers" back in the day with my Z28. LS1 with longtube headers, no cats, 3" duals with x-pipe, bullet mufflers, dumped under the axle, BIG *** camshaft with tons of overlap, 4k stall speed converter...but it looked like a V6. Took the Z28 badges off, 16" wheels (eagle eyes would notice rears were Nitto drag radials), no visible exhaust pipes or exits, had the "sport" appearance package when looked just like an RS V6.
But then I turned the key and people broke their necks wondering where the hell that sound was coming from. Then I'd go WOT next to some other college kid in his WRX or whatever and we'd stop at the next intersection and he'd be like "your **** is LOUD!" while staring in disbelief
But I was a lot younger then.
Now...none of that ever happens. I drive a common color of the best selling vehicle in the world, in a pickup heavy state down South, with a mild level/lift and probably the most common all terrain tire out there so I look just like pretty much everybody else...and have a stock muffler.
Mines a real neck breaker..... when I slam on the brakes when i see one of these sweet decked out trucks roll past lol. Mabe some day I can reach the level of some of you guys but till then I just admire from a distance.

Fall Guy was a Beast! I had the Fall Guy Set with the ramp barrels, when I was a grasshopper. Thats awesome. Beautiful Truck.
Fall Guy is off the Hizzy Chain..
Waste money on a lift and crappy wheels with big tires, you'll turn heads....
the driver of this truck will think: "wow! everyone loves my truck!"
everyone else: "look at those horrible decisions. hahaha."
...Meanwhile the tastefully crafted truck will drive by.
That being said, just do you. You can't go wrong with that.
i dont think anyone is turning their heads to look at the most mass-produced truck on the road. If you think otherwise you are delusional. Classic car? ppl dont care either. They want to get from point A to B. Maybe an exception for a small sect of enthusiasts. Lets not kid ourselves here.
It's because of the 6 & 1/2' bed paired with the crew cab, in combo with the magnetic gray and overall clean and tight look of your truck. Usually only see the 6 & 1/2 with crew cab on Super Duty's.
