It's actually pretty impressive that these trucks last so long, in previous years they were all pretty crappy and broke down with regular occurrence. I grew up on a large dairy farm and we went through them all and they all really just sucked back 70s-mid 90s. These days getting 200k is not that big of a deal and pretty much the norm.
I was really all pumped to get a new truck in the coming year but I just can't find any justifiable reason for it. I could see myself driving current truck for another couple years easy. Maybe by then we'll see over 20 mpg and 400RWHP, maybe I'm dreaming though..

I have myself a 2003 Supercrew XLT FX4 with 109k miles. Never had any major issues and she's still going strong.

You may want to look into the expedition front clip also. It's what I have, and I find them easier to find.

Is your grille and bumper both off an expy? And how hard was it getting fog lights to work when you didn't have them before? I noticed you used to not have them looking through your pics in your albums on your profile haha

You stalker! Either way, only the grill and surround are from an expedition. You'll be fine as they are pretty much identical. The fogs were easy; the plugs were already there, so I needed a new valence, HL switch, and the lights.
