F150 stink

I have an 03 supercrew and It has a light "rotten egg-sewer gas type smell"
in the cab after it warms up after a few minutes. Any body experience that?

Not sure, I wouldn't wait for a light to come on. A good muffler shop will help you and should do a check for little to no cost. Here's another thread on the matter...https://www.f150forum.com/f2/rotten-egg-smell-11983/
