Default I made it back!

After a 2 or so year gap of no F150 ownership I found my way back. I bought an 09 xlt back when they first came out and some things happend and I had to get rid of it but I just bought myself a brand new '12 xlt 3.7l with the custom package. I had the 4.6l in my 09 and from what I can remember the 3.7l feels about the same. I don't plan on doing any kind of serious towing so the v6 should get the job done. I really would have liked to get a FX2 with the ecoboost but I really didn't want to spend that much and I got a pretty good deal on the xlt and so far I'm happy. Here are some pics of the truck from the dealer website...I don't know how long they'll be up but I'm in the middle of a tunraround at work and don't have any days off to take pics.





Does anyone know if they sell the door and tailgate handle's already painted?

Truck looks great! Welcome back

Check with Tasca on the door handles, I've seen some on ebay.

Thanks guys. Feels good to be back. I hope I don't regret buying white...my other car was white and the skeeters were tearing the front of it up.

Nice truck, congrats! Welcome aboard.

Have you seen this product for the grill to help with bugs in the summer? The reviews seem great on it and you can use it to keep the engine warm in the winter! Sorry, I know the pic is a Ram, but you get the idea!!
