Hey everyone! After almost two years of scrapping out of a Honda CRV, I have finally upgraded to a truck. Today I got a 2004 Ford F-150 long box with a whopping 84,000 miles on it. Paid around 7000 for it. This will allow me to start hauling in larger loads and not have to worry about messing up the interior of the CRV!

I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

Nice choice! Good luck with it, I wish you the best.
Before you let the tailgate down to unload; make sure you don't leave anything on the bumper when your stepping on the gate while its down. I left a nice huge dent from a hammer I left on the bumper on my first truck.

Yeah, OK, I looked again, and that truck is too pretty for this job. How about trading it with me? I'll find you something nicely pre-dented and pre-scratched. It'll be a sacrifice for me, but I don't want you to suffer the mental anguish of messing up your truck. ;-)

Wow what a beauty! Be next to impossible to find that body style ford up here with no rot! Must be a reaaaal early 2004 though. Ford came out with the new styling in 04 if im not mistaken. Either way, nice clean truck man!!
If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...

Says it's made in Canada on the door sticker!That's what I'm thinking as well, because all the photos from 2004 are the new body style. Thankfully it's the old motor type from before Ford decided to go all stupid and make the sparkplugs a pain in the butt to remove.

It does have one dent on the hood and a few scratches. Not entirely perfect, but pretty darn close!

I'm not only impressed with the truck but also that you managed to scrap out of a CRV. Congrats on the upgrade and your continued success. It's always nice to see other people success, and hard work pay off.

You'll be spending all your time waxing and polishing and not so much scrapping. Congrats,,,

Ok, I'll see if I can fit it in the box that that processor of yours is going to go in. May be a tight fit!
