Why not just put your current gear in it? Nice truck and good luck with it.

Get a fuel efficient vehicle, like a Fiesta, and with the money saved in gas you can have your dream system! ..... plus a down payment on a house! :)

Hahah I'm just yanking yer chain.

nice truck but them tires look way too small.

Their 35s, but really it just needs a lower lift as long as it clears the fender-wells.

Have fun with the new truck Lantz.

It looks like it may have a lift plus spacers. Mine has a 2.5in level kit and it still rubs. A 6in is perfect for 35's, a 4in would get by but you could never really go offroad.

Damn those are some nice looking trucks. I always thought Fords looked better lifted. I wish you would keep it since it's paid for. No bills = win, but I also think man should buy what he wants. Only one life to live. Still, I like as is!!!

From what I read up on them last night, the 2003 was the first year and 2003 and 2004 6.0s had the problems. Yeah even the 2005 and up 6.0s had problems but between 2004 and 2005, many many changes were made in the 6.0. But as I listed in the OP, 95% of the common 6.0 problems have been replaced :) he said the only thing left to do to make it bullet proof is do the EGR delete and that's it. Everything else is done

My 07 gets around 13 and that doesn't matter if it's hwy, city or towing. I hope it's not too much coin, you could either get a good one or a nightmare. I have 12 diesels and it,s costly.

yeah iv noticed that myself about the 6.0s... either u get a golden one with no problems, or u get one with ungodly problems..... i took the vin# to ford and its only been back 3 times since it was bought new in 2005. (the current owner of the truck is the origional owner) no big problems since it was new. he did blow the headgaskets a year ago and since he was having the engine torn apart to replace the gasket, he decided to go ahead and replace the head studs as well to the arp studs :) its a tank. i went and took my dad to look and it and get his opinion on it and he likes it haha. i also got to drive it... it CRAZY fast and smokes like a freight train lol. it has a sct tuner with 3 custom tunes and a smoke switch to turn the turbo on and off (when off while driving, it SMOKESSS) haha heres another pic i took today frpm the front...

friggin SEXYNESSS

turn the turbo off and on???????

it works off of exhaust, maybe a wastegate control? that only dumps part of the pressure being built ...

swift,

i have a friend that chipped and removed the exhaust filter on his 2010, before he was getting 13 miles to the gal, now he gets 17-19 MPG, maybe something to look into with as many trucks as you have if they are all newer fords.
