    Greetings, brothers! I'm from Vancouver, BC. I have a 2004 F-150 FX4 5.4 Crew Cab.

    I'm the second owner, and it currently has 172,000km. Recent repairs and/or maintenance would be the leaky high mount brake light, spark plugs, front brakes and oil changes. My upgrades include replacing the piece of crap Dynomax exhaust with a Borla Cat-Back, undercoating the undercarriage, complete Osram LED interior lighting, complete Cree LED rear exterior lighting, a DeeZee headache rack and maybe some more stuff I can't remember.

    I'll be posting some DIY guides on here from time to time. Weather sucks so I have nothing to post for now.

    Work hard, think smart, make money and enjoy life! :)

    It's not nearly as nice as some of the fantastic builds I've seen around, so I feel a bit embarrassed. I'll be posting numberous pics and DIY guides for those who are interested in my upgrading and repairing adventures.

    I've owned my '03 Ram 1500 for some time before buying this truck. The difference between the Dodge and the Ford is like the difference between Jupiter and Pluto. I'm very proud of both trucks but I drive the Ford more often than the Dodge because it's like an iron fist wrapped in a velvet glove.

    I might post pics of the entire truck at a later date, during better weather. I gotta polish it up and make it look spiffy. It's pretty barebones compared to some of the awesome rides around. I'm just upgrading it slowly. While most members focus on what upgrade to do next, my situation is a little more complicated. I have to decide what upgrade to do next, and to which truck! :)
