After wrecking my Ford Ranger XLT I decided to upgrade trucks. I bought a 2000 Ford F150 XLT Off-Road.

Here is the first couple of picture of her after I washed her.





The previous owner had done some work to her. She already had chrome bed rails, a remote starter, Sony 10" subs, Kenwood HU, some after market tail lights, a K&N CAI, and a Flowmaster SI/DO exhaust.

Here are the subs



I didn't like the style of the tail lights so I removed those and put the stockers back on.



Then I tinted them.



After that I took an arrow and made it my antenna.



At this time my fly wheel was having issues so I took it to the shop and they fixed that as well as replacing my starter. I asked what the issue was and they showed my my flywheel. Yikes! It was ground down on two sides.



So at this point the headlights were bugging me so i replaced those with the popular Lightning style.



Then I took off those bed rails and added a tool box.



My rear window was leaking so I went and got that fixed. One of those mods people dont see or care about but makes all the difference in the world.

My tires were getting worn out so I went and got Nitto Trail Grapplers 285/70/17.



I just bought and Edge Evo Programmer to do all the things programmers do. Pictures of that coming soon.

So thats all I have done in the 3 months I have owned her. The list is ever growing but here are some major mods left to do: Double Din HU and backup camera, MT Sidebiters, Line-X, New keys and fobs, Lights behind my grill, and some other odds and ends.

Tell me what you think!

Thanks! I love my arrow. I think the pictures make it seem taller than it really is, that's the stock antenna height on the truck.

painting the grille black will really make the front up look better.
