Pretty much stock right now, money's been tied up in new tires and some repairs (alternator, cruise, ball joints). When I bought it it had even wimpier passenger tires on and the sidewall on the passenger front had been almost worn though, so I bumped back up to stock size A/Ts. I guess whoever drove it before wasn't very good at parallel parking

And you can't really tell in the pic, but the OEM headlamps are pretty fogged and you really can't see much at night, so I've been eying a set on ebay, like what Ice-Cable has here: https://www.f150forum.com/f6/update-...y-screw-51290/ Then I think I might change out the bumper pad to black and see about painting the grille black, too, and go from there.

And that's me.
Yeah white and black are amazing together. After those tires give out you should look into a lift, wheels and tires but thats just my 2 cents. It's a great looking truck, but a girl in a lifted truck gets me every time haha.. Welcome to the forums! BTW you look really familiar, you didnt ever hang around Elma did you?

Very nice truck! Doesn't look like it seen any dirt aside from the stuff that builds up near the curb.
