I think they're Ford's take off of the 08 Harley-Davidson wheels....they have relief gaps in the spokes also.....making the five spoke actually a ten.....I could get the 09-10 mkz 22s also...they are the same design as the STA wheels....

I thought I saw Kyle climbing into his race car with boxing gloves on instead of his racing gloves.

Headers done. No header leaks. We leak checked them after installing them at the collector junction. Slight tick left from the crappy OBX clamps that a welder can fix. Happy.

Thanks Patrick! We'll have to meet up sometime and not do some mods.

Glad to hear you got it fixed. Nothing more annoying than an exhaust leak.

Really good....more mpgs is good and its wicked fast as the wife found out today when going up an on ramp....we were doing about 95mph when we hit the interstate........I also love the split hard bed cover and it locks....there's also 3 bed storage compartments....I put a couple of folding cloth chairs in the front one....tie down straps and bungees in another and a first aid kit and extinguisher in the other......I also enjoy the sync Nav radio....

The length of the cab is about the same as the f150 but its 6"-8" narrower....lost the back door pockets.........the other thing is Ford changed their headrest design on the front seats in 2009, so I'm currently looking for dvd replacement head rest to change them out....
