    so i figured scince everyone else is going fullsize, i might as well. brought home an '06 F150 crew cab lariat 4x4! :thumbsup: it's got power everything, leather interior, 6CD changer, power sunroof, and a roll & lock tonneau. only has 35k miles.









































    ...and if anyone's wondering, NO i did not buy it!!! it's actually my boss's truck, i'm working on a gas pipeline right of way and he's letting me use it because it has 4x4, and let me bring it home because it's about an hour quicker than going back to the shop.

    lol it would be if i hadin't taken over the garage for my junk :whistling:

    it honestly gets worked on outside more than when it's stored inside, our garage is too small to really work in

    although you CAN see the front valance and some other peices for the '57 in that pic...

    haha, i can honestly say i like driving my ranger better than that F150. it's a really nice truck but it's just not right for me.

    i do wish the ranger had the audio & HVAC controls in the steering wheel though.

    Exactly if I could go back in time when that kid pulled in my drive way I would say turn around im not selling. Full size is more then its cracked up to be and the sad part is I just truied doing a burnout around the corner and lets just say my Ranger was more impressive lol

    i've got a magnet of that on my toolbox, lol.

    i'm lucky enough that where i work now i have gotten to drive quite a few differant trucks, pretty much the big 3's offerings across the board. as many nice features as that F150 has, it just dosin't feel right to me. i think the only new fullsize i like right now is the new ram trucks, and the '08-'10 super dutys. other than that the ranger is my favorite as a driver.

    that's because you understand how an "upgrade" works, lol. next step for you will be a crew cab lincoln pickup. :thumbsup:
