Default New from Belgium

Hi, my name is Burt,I'm 45 years young and I live in Belgium (Europe).
Sinds a few weeks I'm the owner of a silver 2005 F150 FX4.
It's my first American truck. You don't see them often here!
Hope to enjoy myself here and learn much about these nice trucks.....
Some pics.

Welcome aboard.

I have always wondered what people think of when they see trucks like that in European countries that are dominated by small cars like the Lada, Citroen, Seat, etc. Do people view trucks like yours as overkill and stupid, or more of a thing that gets alot of "how the hell did you get that?"

Hi,
Most of the people think I'm crazy and then some others really love my new ride. It's not easy to ride this kind of big vehicle around here because the roads are smaller than in the U.S. The parking places are too small, even my own drive way. But on the other hand, it's a real eye catcher, head turner or whatever you call that. I'm really proud of it. Most of the american trucks in my town are Dodges (just a few). I'm the only F150 driver in the area. Don't like Dodges at all.....

Not many "Fullsize" trucks of any mark round here.
My brother in law has a friend in Ft Lauderdale-FL.
He did me a favor and find this truck and chipped it to Belgium.
It's a dream come treu....
