Well post pictures of your truck on a F150 enthusiasts website and ask for opinions and that's what you will get. Thanks for all the comments and opinions. The truck nuts were not part of my original post but were brought in because they showed in a photo. Today I removed the SVT emblem as one poster put it "that's just wrong". OK it's gone. The other badge is still on as it was. When the weather gets nicer than it is today I will consider taking it off and trimming the "high performance" off and putting the 5.0 back on. That brings me to my nuts. On a nicer day I will go under there and cut my nuts off. Ouch! I've had my fun with them through the years on my other truck. I like having fun with my cars and trucks I hope you do to. Make any further comments if you will. You guys are the best.

But, Mr. OP you have officially motivated me to ditch the flex fuel badge! Probably wont replace it with anything, but it really does look out of place (and its not like it impresses anyone!). That sucker is GONE come first thing tomorrow.

SVT????
SERIOUSLY?
Does that add 100 hp?
I didn't think it was possible to 'rice' a truck, but by golly....I've now seen it!

That is one problem I didn't need to worry about. My 2009 came with the yellow e85 band around the filler tube, but no e85 flex fuel sticker. Do you suppose the guy that was supposed to put it on called in sick that day?

Being fair here, he isn't a total poser, because Ford SVT apparently forgot about having a F150 Lightning since 7 friggin years ago. WTF FORD???
My only advice really would be to use a 2011 5.0 badge, not the 1991 version. Seriously....thats a 80's/90's badge on there. Maybe its just because I'm a truck and a Mustang guy here, but I think the NEW 5.0 badges would look much better, and I'd put them on the doors rather than the gate. Put it where the 6.2 would be on a RAPTOR.
This way you can free up space on the tailgate for a POLICE INTERCEPTOR badge.
