great mangina comment.... it seemed like that. the only reason i thought it would help with milage, is the engine is turning less once i reach my desired speed.

Nice looking truck.....all fresh and new.

Now I need to go back on something here.........

Did you say you were 28 in one post, then say, "it's my parents camera and they just came home" in another?

So you live at home and you're 28? Good God man......no wonder yu can get a new truck.....LOL

Just bustin' your ***** bud.

yea, i'm 28. no i don't live at home, i'm just always here for the wi-fi , laundry and the home cooking. i don't have a digital camera. they do. so if i need any pics, i ask them to borrow the camera. i needed it last week when the truck came i posted some in. i posted some pics of the golf i've got for sale locally and on the vortex in regionals.

as for paying for a new truck, i kinda got my finances in order so i would be able to purchase it. i drive for my local bus company. that helps bigtime.

the other pic is so people know what i look like. there was a thread of you and your truck somewhere. so i figured whynot. thanks for posting my pictures
justin.

Of course it is ford hasnt changed the suspension since 98...

and I think the side steps are throwing you off on the height.

[QUOTE=07SPORT;914074]dang that sits lower than my 2WD... so is that a T-bar suspension?

i agree with mark. how would a stock 4wd be lower then a stock 2wd? (assuming that your truck is stock height) i haven't touched my torsion bars. i'm keeping it this hight since my mom has arthritis in her knees. later on down the road, i might raise it abit and get her a step stool. mind you this is when it's close to warranty expirey time.

mike you can manwhore all you want. i just want a kickback.

haha shucks.. at least I tried.. :-)

It sure is nice having a new vehicle though, I drove one of that same exact style, coloring and all up at the ford dealership and it was extra comfy.. the one I tried had the full leather interior though, full FX4 level 2 package with everythign on it and 4.10 L/S, made me jealous slightly.. but I've got my nice one and its treated me well =)
