Hey Fella's...
New to the forum here, just saying hello. Im on my 3rd late model F150 now. First was an '04 S/C 4x4 Lariat, Second was an '06 S/C 4x4 XLT, and my new one is an '08 S/C 4x4 FX4... each had/has a 5.4L engine.

I have a good amount of expierence building engines (mostly SB Chevys) but love to tinker with any engine.

The forum looks great, keep up the good work...

Can we get some pics? Lol. My dad trades off trucks like no body I know. He puts about 125,000 on them in a year and a half. He drives cummins though.

Well i set the bar pretty high by leasing the '04 Lariat first, it was a really nice truck white w/tan leather, flow thru consule, 5.4L, 4x4, 3.73 axle. But when i turned it in i had gone over my miles by about 10k. Ouch, needless to say, i had to get into an XLT to keep my payment close. The '06 XLT was True Blue w/dark grey cloth, 4x4, 5.4L, the only thing that bummbed me out was it had a 3.55 axle (and i own a boat) so it was wanting to down shift frequently towing up hills. And my newest F150 is an '08 FX4 black on black, and yes i made sure i got it with the 3.73 axle. I love it, of the 3 this one is my favorite.

And God Bless 'A' plan!

Ill have to dig up some pic's and post them for ya soon.
