here is all i noticed while i drove it home

its a 1996 2.3l XLT w/ 79200 miles
2wd
short bed
5 speed
White
14 inch alloy (deer hove) wheels
tonneau cover
in dash CD/DVD player with 8 inch screen
white faced gauges
Airhog air intake
Throttle body spacer
a tuner chip of some sort...haven't seen it yet
tacky taillight covers

i'm at work right now....so you'll have to wait until i get home :silly:

it is a very nice truck but in comparison...
my old truck was a hot rod....quick, loud, eye catching, stiff suspension, turned you on just from starting it

this truck is a Cadillac ......smooth, quiet, blends in, grandpa truck, turns you off just looking at it

Trigger01 02-22-2009 10:56 AM

Nice HU.

RangerNDog 02-22-2009 11:04 AM

Clean truck. Time to start searching ebay for a cluster with a tach.

crazymikey 02-22-2009 11:11 AM

Great lookin truck!! Ditch those tail light covers though. Overall that thing is super clean with somenice mods already done.

Just needs some wheels.

Good find!

t3ob 02-22-2009 11:23 AM

TheBearJeweler 02-28-2009 03:32 PM
