    It has been a good ride. Just wanted to put up a thread to thank everyone on TW. Super good group of guys on here. I just purchased a 2013 F150 Ecoboost, and selling my truck to a guy who claims he's going to move on with the build I started & add LT and such. So you might still see my truck around! Thanks again everyone!

    I like the black-bezel projector headlights!

    1. Put a grille over the opening in the front bumper to protect the intercooler against pebbles.

    2. Hydraulic bumpstops in the rear if you plan to wheel the truck hard. Stock bump rubber is installed through a hole in the frame in an area of high stress concentration. This is what caused the bent frames in Raptors.

    if it the new twin turbo v6 I would suggest a 4" exhaust to free up the motor, everything ive seen on it shows an almost 30 hp gain and almost the same gain in torque. nice looking truck btw

    Very nice truck. I was torn between a F150 and the Taco. Finally decided that the F150 was just too big. Still, they are great trucks.

    I traded my 2011 F150 in on my Tacoma. They're both good trucks, just different from each other.

    I haven't done a thing. The guy who owned it before put in the lift, tires, and air aid intake. I plan to do the 4" exhaust. Know a few guys with it and they say to go with it. I am stoked!!
