Default sold the truck!

Well I ended up selling my truck. It was a 2004 F150 XLT 2wd with 155,000 miles

And I ended up getting a more family friendly vehicle, a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 LT with 106,000 miles for only 5.5k! So I still have about 2k saved from selling my truck

Planning on doing a few lil things such as 3" front level and 2" rear level, 3" body lift, swap my muffler, and plasti dipping it white.

Miss the F150 but having 2 kids a wife and 2 giant dogs (one pit and one great dane) we needed more room

I looked, but I didn't like the body of the expedition and couldn't find an excursion in my price range.
In my opinion I couldn't pass up a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban with 106,000 miles and in excellent condition for a little over 5k.

I love it!
I still have the dogs, the wife and the F150.
The kids grew up and left home.

I think you made a good decision. With the dogs included it sounds like you have too big of a family for an extended cab truck. It looks like a nice suburban but you can really make it look cool with some of the things you mentioned.

Thanks bud. But yea I have a 2 yr old and a 7 yr old. And we think we may be expecting another. So with that and our dogs more room was needed. I'll eventually get another F-150 one day though!
