[/B]Year:[/B] 1994

Model: XLT 4.9L 5 speed

Milage: 58,690 original miles

Options: am/fm radio and a headliner

Mods/Custom Work: Custom two tone paint, 1 inch drop, spray in bed liner and 22inch amp rims.

Description: Got this truck and had a goal in mind to make a custom show truck, but spend less than 1500 bucks on everything including the purchase of the truck. When I got the truck it was nothing to brag about but I picked it up for only 900 bucks, put another 200 into painting the truck myself, and then put 500 in the the custom rims and tires. unfortunately i went over budget by 100 dollars, but I can not complain about it. I don't have alot of money, but I have always wanted a show truck. This truck is a great example of how if you want something you have something, you can always find away to achieve it.


Why did you Nominate this truck:
I like to let people know that you do not have to spend alot of money customizing their ride to make it their own, instead if you are willing to put in some hard work, and patience good things will come.

Default Big Blue

Year: 2011

Model: FX4, 5.0 V8

Mileage: 15000

Mods/Custom Work: 6" BDS lift

Description: A nice all purpose truck, can haul trailers, move engines around, grab some nice walnut hardwood for a fireplace, and still look good on the trail or a night on the town.

This truck isnt quiet a show truck, and has enough scratches in the paint and dents in the rhino lined truck bed to prove that it is worked for a living. This truck has gone everywhere I need it for fun and work and hasn't given me any of problems.

Why did you Nominate this truck: Another member suggested it. Also I figure everyone will love this truck as much as I do!

Beautiful beautiful truck! Love it! I'm torn between this color and white when I buy my new Fx4.... I love blue, but IMO its hard to beat the clean crisp look of white, especially on these Fx4s. The wife thinks I should go with the blue...decisions decisions.

Everyone is so huge on the black on black look now days. But IMO the best looking color combos out there are white with black accents, gray with black accents and blue with black accents. Not necessarily in that order.

Year: 1997

Model: Lariat Supercab 2wd 4.6 v8

Mileage: only 51,418!

Options: leather seats with a few tears, some junk in the backseat

Mods: air freshner hanging under the steering wheel

Description: My Dad's truck, barely any miles because its mostly been the workhorse around the farm

Why did I nominate this truck: This truck is the reason I fell in love with Ford pickups. My dad bought it used in 98 when I was only 4 years old. It had around 20k miles, and since he's only put it just over 51k. This was the vehicle I learned to drive in and I love it. Its got the 4.6 in it and its the smoothest riding truck I've ever driven, and my Dad is very proud to own it.
