Default FNG... from a Taco to a SCREW

So, after a long run with Toyota's, most recently a 16' Tacoma, I went and got myself an F150. The tacoma was ok, but the 3rd gens have been tainted with a very underwhelming transmission, which was livable until I got a ski boat. A few trips with it had me shopping. Having already owned a few Tundras that never passed a gas station they didn't like, I decided to go with some "new" technology and give the F150 a try.

So... the Tacoma was lightly modded - 4Runner Pro wheels, BFG tires, derp'd grill, de badged, and a few other odds and ends. Was a 16' TRD Off-road 4x4.

The new truck... 17' XLT SCREW FX4 w/max trailer package. Floor liners have been ordering, next is a trifold bed cover, spray in bed liner, and tailgate damper kit. Few months from now it'll probably get leveled and new shoes...

I look forward to learning and asking stupid questions without using the search function. I'm still a member on TacomaWorld, which is a great forum and following, hopefully this is the same. I've still got a 3rd Gen 4Runner, so I'll continue to keep tabs there.

Welcome to the F-150 boards, glad to have you join us.

Any fun performance mods planned for the truck? :-)
