Not a Mustang, but I traded in one of my Dakota's on this new F150 XLT package. My wife and I came to the conclusion that we needed something roomy and able to tow the Mustang for long distance events so we figured what better to tow a Ford than another Ford. Probably will shop around for a trailer over the summer for any future events such as Bristol and such.

That's good to know. We did our research and came to the conclusion that it would fit our needs better with the added reliability of the F-150.
We picked it with the 5.4 Triton motor, 4x4, shift on the fly, tow package, foglights, and some creature comforts for long trips like the Sirius package and such. Should work out pretty nicely.

No mods except for maybe some chrome tubular running boards at some point so my wife doesn't have to jump out! Outside of that, I don't see anything else as we have a Fox to work on after my white car is done.

That is one nice truck. My wife was just saying we should get a truck and I told her probably an F150. In fact the one you got probably would be the one I would pick out.

Very very nice truck I LOVE the new F-150's. In fact, it was what I would have gotten had I not gotten the mustang. Its such a sweet truck and really comfortable ride my best friend has the 4 door one now.

Congrats man.

Haha!
With all the projects I have going on (finishing white car and starting Fox for son), I doubt any mods are going to the truck.
In all seriousness, trucks to me are nothing but beasts of burden! It's got the 5.4 3V in it, so that's good enough in my book...although my wife said maybe she will run it down the track at the BB2 :003:
