"Winter" ride. 1998 F150

sn95jones · Nov 21, 2012

I had a '99 F-150 Ext. Cab before I traded it in for my '98 GT I LOVED it man, had the 5.4L in it with an HD rear end. Had 230k on the odometer and there wasn't a damn thing wrong with it. I want another one of this body style but I was a crew cab 4x4 with the wider bed.

Nice! I have the grey interior and the steering wheel off a Harley Davidson f150 which i love. Wish i could put that steering wheel on my car. I wish i had the 5.4. But i guess the supercharger on the 4.6 makes up for it though i wish i could get a better wrap, intercooler, and get it tuned. But that sort of money gets dumped into the car instead

I have 254K (KM though) on mine and it has had very little issues. I got the truck in 2010 but my family has had i think since 03.

I really like the body style too. I would like to get a lightning someday

hahah. i was totally like "WTF am i looking at this thread for" then i saw the blower and was like "oh. herrow!"

Your winter beater is nicer than my GT. Nice hardware under the hood, solves the torque problem. We had an '02 Expedition with the 4.6, great truck but man what a dog.

The 5.4's are a great motor, when I had it in my F-150 I could tell you how many times I was just cruising down the highway and almost had the speedo topped out, not to mention it will scoot!

Im sure your gt is nicer. The truck gets treated like a truck, not abused, but used. As much as i try to take care of the truck, it sure doesnt get anywhere near the same treatment as the car

And yes the supercharger helps when i need a bit of extra power

Nice truck dude

I'd guess your a Ford guy based off the 2 trucks and your stang? Good man! I'm hopin to get my hands on a truck before too much longer. I want a diesel tho, I've got a 7.3 in the driveway and just love it, it's a blast. I'm sure your s/c is probably more fun haha but hey.

Your truck is rather stealthy too man you would never guess by looking at it that its supercharged haha that could come in handy!

7.3's Ftw

KillNThrill24 · Nov 26, 2012

^This!

Shiiiitttt... I WISH I had that Vortech. I LOVE my 98 5.4 EB Expedition with 3.73s in it, but it would be totally badass with a blower. Did you put it in yourself?

Yes I'm a ford guy! The 98 f150 and the mustang are mine, the green f150 is my dads and my mom has an escape

Bit of a ford family

The supercharger does help alot, but right now its just bolted on. I dont know if ill ever tune it and everything, the car seems to hog all the money and time

I didn't personally put it on. That was my dads project when he had it. Right now its just bolted on, if I had time and money i wish i could intercool it, tighter wrap and tune it. I would also love to do lower gears. But just having it bolted on definitely helps the 4.6!
