Default Ryan's 2017 F-150 XLT Sport build. Did all the work by my lonesome!

When i purchased this vehicle in October of 2016, I knew NOTHING about how to install and/or fabricate any accessories I wanted. I knew how I wanted the truck to look, and I knew I couldn't afford to pay anyone to do the work. So, I began educating myself and then, little by little, piece by piece, over the next 8 months, I changed my plain Jane F-150 into a fully custom ride with more options than even the highest priced F-150s come with. My obsession with lights led to the start up of my first ever business- GitLit Auto Lighting, which is still going strong and growing faster than I can keep up with. Modifications I made to the truck were the following: 3"/5" Belltech lowering kit, 26" Borghini wheels, X-metal T-Rex grille, retrax aluminum retractable bed cover, high gloss ingot silver paint on center of hood, roof and tailgate, Oracle lit badges on front & rear, Anzo headlight assemblies, X3 led low beam, high beam and fog lights, chrome door handles & window pillars, American Muscle graphic kit, custom painted mirrors & caps, custom painted lower balance, Aleo Perforated leather kit to replace all seats, and three JL AUDIO 13.5" subs in ported box with 5,000 watt HiFonics amp. Also replaced all factory highs with JL AUDIO and Rockford Fosgate speakers. I fabricated and installed wheel rings on all 4 rotors, RGB underbody LED's, led strips inside grill, RGB ambient lighting on the interior, and too much more to list.

Reminds me of that show, "pimp my ride". Not my style, but looks nice.

Remember that crazy stereo guy.... "10,000 watt stereo", then there was only a head unit and a sub amplifier. Chances are nowadays you might actually have 5000watts of class D power though.

Well no one could call it a plain Jane F-150 now that's loud and clear.

Looks like you put a great deal of work into it.

Not my style but kudos on the dedication. Are you sure that Hifonics amp makes 5000 watts ? 5000 watts RMS. Nothing else matters. I doubt each of those subs handle 1667 watts RMS. You had me at JL and then said RF. Highs ? Do you mean mids ?

I like those wheel lights and the underglow. I tried to include that in my build but the "Boss" shut that down. Sweet looking truck.
