No nothing was wrong with the truck. I just like the 97-03 style more. I did not like that I could not turn off the traction control all the way off and I did not like the fly by wire for the throttle. It had a big lag if If I went to pass a car or get on it.
I love the blue my self. I knew if I went back to the 97-03 style I wanted a supercrew. At the end of this month I should have the lightning swap done with LT's, true duals, magnaflow high flow cats, borla pro xs mufflers, underdrive puleys, and a E-fan conversion. My goal is around 400-450 RWHP. I spoke with Mike Troyer and he said that is a big possibility with around 12#'s of boost.
I have been in VA for around 6 years. I used to live in Hampton. I sold the Scab to the owner of a micro brewery in Hampton by Langly AFB. On the 2010 I was going to PTM the plat grill but never got around to it.
Depending on how long I keep the blue screw and what I want to do as far as mods go I might sell it and buy a screw raptor! I just don't really know if I want to shell out that kind of money for one.

Hopefully will have it mostly all together in the next month. Redoing some thing with the bed at the moment as well so that won't be ready till next month. I went with the TCE Performance 14" rotor 6 piston wilwoods for the front, and a 12.1" 4 piston wilwoods for the rear. Also just narrowed my rear end 4.5" so i can fit a 24x10 with a 5.5" lip for the rear. Can't wait to have them installed next week. I'll put a build thread from start to where its at in the next few days for you guys. And good luck with yours, sounds like you have some big plans for it!

TruckGuy- Thanks man! I try and keep her clean!
FordGuy- Looking at your front end definitely swayed me to go with the PTM!
off-road99- thanks dude, I have always loved the look of a regular cab long bed. And I tried to give it a different look with the grille and lights and i think i accomplished that.

Oh ok, damn all that work done in one month!!! I'm hoping to get my truck, well I wont say done because I'm sure I'll always change stuff on it but somewhat show ready in the next 3-4 years or earlier. First need to get a daily driver so I can really tear in to her!
