this truck today. If my mechanic gives it his blessing, I'm going for it.

1 owner 2004 Screw Lariat with 91k. I'm dreading the plugs, but my mechanic swears he can do them.

By the way, my name is Mark. I've been lurking for a while now doing my research. Just wanted to say that I think this is the best forum out there for any vehicle I've ever come across. Awesome info here!!! Looking forward to being a part of it.

Any advice or tips for a "new" owner will be much appreciated,

Thanks. I'm not getting my hopes up until after Monday, but from what I saw I think it'll be a go. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Good luck with the mechanic.......good looking truck! Glad to have you aboard, let us know how it turns out with the mechanic.

Well it's a done deal! My mechanic gave it his blessing. Found two minor issues that needed fixing. The rear differential has a slight leak and needs a bearing. Other than that, he told me it was a solid truck. Dealer has agreed to fix anything my mechanic found, so we're good to go.

:thumbup:

Looks like I'll be picking it up Wednesday night (hopefully!)

Welcome to the site

It's a done deal! Drove it home last night. I love this truck. So far so good.

I have to figure out what's up with the adjustable pedals though. Found some good info on here that I'll use this weekend. Everything else works (mirrors, seats, etc.) just the pedals don't.

Other than that, she's perfect. I'll post some pics ASAP.
