Default Got my brand new 2004 F150 STX

WOOHOO!!!

No photos (yet), as it was rainy/snowy last night. Will try to shoot some this weekend, and post after that.

(just testing to see how long before Dan emails me)

Congrats, Darius!

I got my 2004 F-150 Lariat 4x4 a couple months ago and absolutely love it.

Did you get the 5.4L 3V or the 4.6L?

Enjoy it!

Congrats on the new truck! That truck is made for towing, right? I went and looked at the rangers yesterday. I walked over to the new F150s and walked away, quickly! I'd love to have one but the prices I saw were outrageous. I'm looking at the small trucks. Don't know if I'd be happy with a small one..

BTW: What's the deal with the Mazda trucks having 4yr/50k warranties and the Rangers only having 3yr/36k? Aren't they the same f'n truck?!?

Here is a current shot:


This is Phase-I


With these 18" wheels/tires (32" tall 275-65-18 vs 265-60-17 30"tall) coming next week:



This is what I sold (no towing with 4-cyl 5-speed, but did get 27mpg going to work). I'll miss that 1999 Ranger with 51K miles:

I'm confused. The first truck is a supercab, and the second is a regular cab. Or, are you just showing us some of the proposed goodies that will be going on your truck soon (bed cover, pin-stripping running boards, etc.)?

Nice truck I sure do like them in yellow. I want a fx4 so damn bad.

Yes the mazda and the ranger are the same thing. Only difference is the emblems. Ford hasn't changed there warrenty in forever i got the same damn 3yr/36k back in 97.
