Default Finally got the prerunner of my dreams!!!!

Had a lifted 06 Lariat Supercab. I was going to go with the ford raptor, but couldn't justify spending 50K and only having 11/13 inchs of travel. I loved the truck, but now I'm in love with my new one. The truck is pretty much set up exactly how I want it except some things here and there. By Christmas time is should be complete to my perfection.

2008 F150 Supercrew Lariat 2wd FULLY LOADED (13,000 miles)
Camburg Long Travel Strapped at 18" in the front
Fox's on all fours
Glassworkz fiberglass front fender
Bedsides pulled
Roush Supercharger (445 HP)
35 Inch BFG A/T's
XD Wheels
Roush CAI
Deaver Springs
Flowmaster Exhaust
Back Up Sensors
Back-Up Camera
Skid Plate (powdercoated all black)
Black Mesh Grill
Tint all the way around
Blacked out tail lights (Not pictured)
Ford Emblem blacked out

I am in love right now. I think I made the right decision instead of a raptor. What do you guys think?

Mods coming in the next few months:
17" XD's Addicts (DONE)
37/12.5/17 BFG KM2's (DONE)
Line-X Bedliner (DONE)
Powder Coat front suspension (DONE)
Rebuild Front Suspension (DONE)
Locking Gas Cap (DONE)
Fiberglass bedsides (DONE)
Rear Bumper (DONE)

Whats nice with the supercharger is its factory installed and warranties and everything right from ford and the output it just amazing. The rear is deavers and fox's. I have to do measurements, but I think im in the 13-14. When I get the truck jacked up and stuff ill check. I love the wheels to, but their 20's. That's just a little too big for a prerunner. I have 17's on my other f150 and prefer that look more. I'll definitely get some pictures when I'm at the dunes come Halloween and if I go out in the desert. The front ends going to be getting torn off to get powder coated this week so its a waiting game. Thanks for the comments man.

It just looks to gorgeous right now. On friday the whole front end is getting taken off to get powder coated so it'll be down for a little bit. (couple days) Then it's off to get line-x in the bed. Mostly a lot of minor stuff for the next couple weeks. I picked it up for $35K. Theres over 70K in receipts which includes the initial cost. All roush parts are under factory warranty and an offroad shop Woolworth Racing did all the fab work. After comparing to other trucks around (same year and all that) They are around 26 to 30. So for 5K I'm willing to pay that for all the extras. I figure I'll have 40 into it by the time I'm done.
