Well I got me a Stx F150 2wd Regular cab today. I traded the Mustang and stuff. I'll have a JBA O/R X pipe for sale $200. Its pretty fast for a truck even with the derated 5.0

Sucks to hear you ditched the car? Any particular reason? (If I may ask)

I would love to get into a new F150, but I love the car too much.

What are your plans for the truck?

I beat the crap out of the car. I like running over things :/ My insurance is $100 a month cheaper and payment is like $60 cheaper. I'm not sure if I'm going lift level it out or drop 2in front and 4in the back.

Don't by the used 5.0 GB mustang at Prestige Ford has around 24k miles. They gave me 23k for it and it needs proly around 3k worth of work. They lost a lot of money on selling me the truck lol

Lower it they look good lowerd

If its not a 4x4 don't lift it. I never understood why people raise 2 wheel drive trucks. Level it, drop it or leave it alone.

The FX2 deserves to be lowered. Get the DJM or Belltech kit. Best kit for those truck.

Also, did you get the 20" wheel option or the standard 18"?

Basically this is what I would go after if I had an FX2...

Damn, what did you do to it and what does it need?

**46Tbird** · 08-01-2013, 10:05 AM

I'm sure you disclosed everything that was wrong with it to the dealer, right?

Man, I'm on a roll with now reading today.

Even with an STX, I'd find some 20"wheels, as there are better street tire options for them for Trucks/SUVs nowadays.

But either way, lower it and add a VMP TVS.

That looks great!

Congrats on the truck. Don't stay away as long as I did (23 yrs) or you will regret.

Your trade-in story is the reason I bought new.

That is the same truck I have but mine is the Ecoboost. Both my Mustang and F150 FX2 are 2012's. I'm a baller. Lol!!
