HAHA sorry guys truck hasn't had anything new except a windshield thanks to a rock hahaha. It's kind of sad but the truck will most likely be going to a new home in a few months. Looking to sell it and get something bigger. I looked into the prerunner stuff and to do it right would require I chop into the truck and since she is about 20 years old now I just can't do it. PLUS even if I did chop it up into a prerunner it still wouldn't have the power I need to tow or the cab space. SO i decided to just drive it for now until I get a new truck.

It will be hard to see her go when that time comes but at least i'm sticking with the ford family and going with an F150 :) BUT like I said, I will miss cruising with the windows down and shifting through the gears! The 4.0 with a 5 speed and loud gibson exhaust is fun!!!

Just wanted to chime in....
When I see trucks like this it makes me wish I went 2WD and stayed low....I love my FX4 but I do miss my lowered S10, looks great. LOVE this color too. :icon_thumby::icon_thumby:
Thank you very much, this truck does have a special place in my heart. It's funny though, I hated the color when I first got it and now I won't buy another truck unless it is close to this color blue hahaha!

funny story (at least to me)

Well still nothing much but did have a little laugh. I had the entire brake system replaced awhile ago and since then I had been having a mysterious rattle coming from the calipers. Took it back to the shop and they said they didn't hear it. SO i took them for a ride and showed them. They said okay and took the truck back, spent another four hours only to tell me they have no idea but they think it's my shocks :icon_confused:

So after wasting an entire day I decide to take a look myself ( which I would normally do the job myself but it was hot as balls out and I didn't want to lol) and come to find out they forgot a simple $.10 anti rattle clips. UG lol can't get good work done anymore hahaha. Except ADS in chandler, az. They have been FANTASTIC with the tranny and many other things haha.

Any way i thought it was funny a brake shop missed something so obvious, but it's fixed now haha
