Well, the SVT is gone. As soon as the rear bumper is fixed, Frontier Ford will own it.
I purchased an 2002 F-150 XLT with V8 today. They offered me a crazy price on the truck and my SVT will be gone for good on Thurs or Fri. Of course if someone wants to buy it by then then thats all good too cause the contract on the car is not final til they get the actual mileage.
I am happy with the purchase and I am enjoying my 295lbs of torq!! And I can haul my bike around too!!

Truck was listed for $24.4k. I got the X-plan and then they gave me a $2500 rebate off the invoice dropping it to $17.5k. I couldn't pass that up!
I had to take a loss on the SVT but I'm no longer upside down financially with my vehicle; starting fresh.
I doubt I will be getting koni's or 22's. The ride is already firm with absolutley no body roll whatsoever. But its definitely not a canyon carver!

Congrats on the new truck! Too bad the SVT had to go but I hope they took care of you at the Ford Dealer with the SVT. Since you still have it for a few more days wanna swap struts, they will never know Make sure you stick around we may need that truck to tow Bangers broke down SVT off the side of the road in the future.

CHristopher, I wish I could do that for you. But they are expecting the car Friday and it is not scheduled to be done til Thursday.
20's are a bit expensive! I couldn't even afford 17's for my Tour.

How about we trade your Mirko Intake for my KKM piece. I kinda like that anodized blue.
You keeping your Sony CD Playa as well. I have a nice lower level Sony Xplod that we could swap, not mine with the face falling off?

Anybody want my Aussie Sway bar? I'll take the stock one. I have the upgraded backing plates and bushings still.
