Without a doubt I miss my G. It sucks because I drive by it everyday. What all did you have done to your truck. I'm looking towards exhaust and intake thn some exterior mods.

Well it was a Lariat so it had chrome bumpers, chrome plastic grille when i bought it. I sandblasted the bumpers and color matched them myself. It was a 2005 so it had the rectangular foglights, found a smashed 07 bumper and cut out and welded in the new circular foglights, spread them out so the fogs lined up with the headlights. Sanded and masked the Ford emblems and painted them black instead of the OEM Ford blue(my license plate was BLK OVAL). Machined a custom gas door at work. Bought the Harley Davidson front grille(the surround came pearl white, painted it black). Bought the Harley Davidson front valence. Color matched the tops of the mirror caps. Front 2 windows were tinted to match the rears. 22" Gear Alloy wheels, 305/40/22 Cooper Zeon LTZs,custom painted the wheels, the lip used to be chrome all the way around the wheel, I filled in the areas between the spokes and painted them black making the spokes look like go all the way to the rim edge. Bought door handle covers and color matched them. 2009 F150 emblem on tailgate. Also machined custom fender vents that mimicked the H-D grille.

I see mine all the time, a local kid bought it so I see it about once a month around town. About all he changed was installing HID headlights and put on blacked out headlight and tail light covers.

Well sorry you don't believe me but the numbers don't lie. I miss my G every nice day but on the other days I'm glad I have my truck.

The numbers don't lie, but it's well known that one dyno can be more generous than others.

In order for the numbers to have real credibility, it helps if you use a dyno well known for it's accuracy instead of one potentially generous as this one appears to be.

286 with bolt ons but no tune would be rare indeed.

Enjoy the new truck. Can't imagine owning a truck without owning a diesel, but that's just me.

When you get a car that rides on a trailer, you now have a truck to tow it.

Can't say I'm surprised. F series are pretty boring.
