I bought it in about July sometime of 08'. It is a 2003 F-150 XL. It was at a local dealer 5mins. away from my house for $5,000 plus plates, registration, taxes(I think it was a steal)...all that stuff. I think there has been some stuff done to it before I bought it but not sure...this is my first truck and love it, always wanted a Ford since I had a permit. Here are some pics of the truck.

If you guys can help me possibly figure out if the previous owner has done anything I would greatly appreciate it. I have had a Alpine Radio with Speakers and Viper Alarm put in. What I think might of been modded is Exhaust(it has 2 going to each side), Wheels & Rims, and possibly a lift. Like I said I'm totally clueless when it comes to trucks right now since this is my first and I know little about cars/trucks excepts for basics.







your truck does look lifted, if you want to run 35's install a 3 inch body lift. and about the exhaust post a sound clip.

well by really bad i mean it should be illegal to sell them. I had a set for a woping 15k miles on my ranger and they were GONE. the wear patterns were horrible and they couldnt clean worth a crap.

they were 33's. on 15" wheels.

i cant count how many times i got stuck with those tires.

i hope you have better luck for sure. post some pictures when they are on. They do look good and are LOUD as all hell
