Zap: I'll check into that, could be a good way to go, thank you!
And 200d 5.4: I like my 87 F150 a heck of a lot better. For once thing, the 5.0 got much better mileage in town. And for another, it was just a beefier looking truck and it had a better ride quality in my opinion. But this seems to be a nice truck, too!

Oh, I plan on it... It's been almost 4 years since I've had a truck (unless you count the POS 95 Suburban I had for a few months) and boy did I miss it! My old Lincoln Town Car was nice, but it just wasn't a truck, LOL! This baby isn't going anywhere unless it gets totalled or something! Even then, I may have to try and salvage it! HAHA!

Go buy an undercoating gun for like $30. The liners spray way better than they roll on. I recently sprayed a headache rack using Plastikote (cheap stuff) and it turned out better than Hurculiner when rolled on. Saves time too. You could easily lay one coat on the bed in about 20-30 min plus it's a lot of fun.
something else real cheap that you could do, imo everyone with PTM door handles should PTM the tailgate handle, get a spray can of color code matching paint and a big can or clear glaze and go to town on that tailgate handle, makes the back of your truck look better

Kinda throws my tailgate off I think. Has a massive Class V rated bumper sitting under it that is powder coated black and the other accessories are all black on the truck as well.

If I still had the painted bumpers on the truck and not the heavy duty replacements I think it would look better. Never thought about doing that but now that I think about it, makes sense and makes me wonder why Ford didn't do it in the factory.
