    depression is setting in

    I was in a similar position 2-1/2 years ago. I was 28 at the time with a wife and one kid. We were going to be having a second child and I didn't seem to have time to enjoy the L anymore. I ended up selling for $13,150 after it sat on Craigslist for 5 months. I regretted it the moment it...

    Options for Replacing Stock Radio

    Hey guys, I sold my first L (silver 2001) about 2-1/2 years ago and replaced the stock radio with a simple single DIN Alpine unit and for the lower DIN I had bought one of the custom light up "Lightning" inserts from the guy in Canada who was making them. I just recently found another L (looks...

    What's my L worth?

    Hey guys, I was planning on keeping my L for a long time, but after buying a business and a new home this year, it's just not in the cards to keep it. I have it listed locally on craigslist for $14,999 and I put it up on the market section. In the last couple days I had a guy offer me $13,500...

    Windshield Wiper Blades

    Did a search and didn't find an answer to my question. Will a larger windshield wiper blade fit on the Lightning? The 20" blades seem a bit small for the size of our windshields. Thanks guys :beer:

    Painted my wheels

    My father in law decided to paint my wheels for me for my birthday last week. I had mentioned I really wanted them graphite. They turned out more like a battleship gray. Let me know what you guys think! I apologize for the cell phone pics, I'll take some better pics later on...

    Hotchkis Leaf Springs

    Bought these from a member on here about a year or so ago. I have never installed them on my truck. They are in brand new condition. They are just taking up space in the garage. I am located in Beaverton, Oregon and willing to ship these. Shipping looks like it will run anywhere from...

    Throwing code PO171

    Hopefully I'm not beating a dead horse here, but I would like your guys opinions on what is going on. About 4 weeks ago I filled up the truck after I was down to about 3 gallons. I went and got something to eat, came out and started it up and threw the code PO171 (bank 1 lean). I was talking...

    Fuel shut off switch

    My Dad has an '03 F-150 and yesterday afternoon he went to start it and it would not start. We removed the kickplate on the passenger side and pushed the fuel shut off switch and the truck started right up. Last night, same thing happened. Would not start, pushed the switch and it started...

    Installing Actuator, Latch, Switch for PS Doorlock

    My passenger side door lock hasn't been unlocking for quite some time now, so I ordered the actuator, latch, and switch from Tousley Ford. (Apparently they re-designed the latch so you have to replace everything) Anyhow, I've got the door panel off but I'm not quite sure how to attack this. I...

    Funny rattle/squeak from the exhaust

    The last week I have had a funny squeaking rattle coming from the exhaust. Sometimes I'll start it and won't hear it and other times it'll rattle pretty bad. When I close my doors it rattle squeaks real bad. When its squeaking during idle, I put downward pressure on the exhaust tips with my...

    FS: Sylvania Xenarc HID's

    Here's your chance at the Sylvania Xenarc 4100K HID's. The only legal HID kit for the Lightning. After only having them on my truck for 2 days, I am regrettably selling them. The lights work brilliantly. The light output is incredible. It was bad timing on my part to have bought them. My...

    Installed Sylvania Xenarc's (Pics)

    Bought a brand new set of Sylvania Xenarcs. Got them today and put them in. They definitely put out a ton more light than the halogens and silverstars. When I first turned them on, they had a nice blue'ish tint to them, but now they just seem a real bright white. (Pics make them seem really...
