Recently I had to break down and purchase a (not so new) new truck. I went to the local dealer and got into a 2001 Ford F-250 4x4. Well, I finally got the time to take some pictures of it and posted them online. You can check out the current pictures at {LINK_REMOVED}. I added some Blue Cathodes and Strobe tubes to it this afternoon and will be posting video of it later on tonight. Let me know what you think and also any suggestions for add-ons are welcome.
//EDIT: Sorry, I would post the pics here but they are kind of large in size and whatnot (again, sorry to those with slow internet connections).

Well, the rims on there right now are brand new; same as the tires. Once I get the truck washed, I'll take new pics and update it. They are bright when clean, in fact I had a cop tell me something about them because they were blinding some pedestrians one day. It was funny.

Have you got a nice sound system in there?

Not yet, just a Pioneer CD/MP3/WMA player with AM/FM tuner, as well as some 6"x8" speakers in the door panels (front and back). I will be upgrading the sound system one of these days; just have to find a good spot to mount a box with some 10" subs in it without making it cluttered and without spending a ton of money having someone else do it for me. It is a lot cheaper doing the labor myself.

Nice, I'd mod it up with neons and massive speakers and body kits, it would look even nicer then, still looks good though. :)

UPDATE: The neon glow wire I ordered just came in and I will be installing them this weekend. As soon as I get it installed, I will be taking pics and adding them to the folder in the link I posted before. Again, any ideas on what kind of lighting scheme I can do on the outside are more than welcome.

Another UPDATE: When I installed the neon glow wire that I spoke of in my previous post, it did not work. I tried everything I could think of to get it to work, then I found that there was a broken wire inside the Glow Wire tubing (which is un-fixable). I guess it is not meant to be. The next big thing that I will be purchasing is some 2.5% window tint for the front, side, and rear windows.
