I blame the crappy camera on my iPhone 14 Pro...
The 14 pro is a great camera phone.  Especially if you’re shooting raw.  In good light you can force it to shoot full 48mp.

Daystar airbag cradles showed up today. Hopefully I can get these in and a trans fluid and filter done before I start on turbos.

No, refuse to believe that this is user error.

It’s the phones fault!

Your priorities are all wrong. 

I saw things I didn’t like with my version of the picture so I kept playing around with it.

Well there is a difference between something that will take me 15 minutes and another that will take 8 hours

That looks really good. The sun has way more pop and the truck can be seen better.

One of the best pieces of advice I hear a lot of is to come back with a fresh set of eyes.  You make all these adjustments and you think it looks great because it looks better.  In my case I get afraid of being too drastic and I dont push it far enough.  I look back and think man I could have done better.  It still looked too dark.  Also, my wife is 27 weeks pregnant and sleeps a lot so I get very bored at night when she passes out while we are watching tv.  I can’t keep watching tv because she will get mad at me for watching stuff without her.

Don’t come at me with that negativity.  Haha


I forgot this one before.  I liked the way it came out.  Got a little crazy with the ice but also warmed up the middle of the sky in the back and subtly on the snow and ice to make the truck stand out a little bit.

That looks pretty darn good!

The little bit of glow from behind is a nice touch.

Since you’re going to keep pouring money in to your truck, you might as well start planning the wife’s next vehicle. Gotta move the kids and cargo around.  The Expedition Raptor seems to be gaining traction.  Could end up being a Tremor but that could make the Timberline pointless.

There is a Raptor Swapped Expedition Group on Facebook I was considering joining. I actually asked Heather last week if she wanted to move into something else and she said she still really likes the ST.

I don’t see the expedition raptor happening.  I can’t imagine the market is there for a rally inspired full size SUV.  They have the Timberline and I could certainly see a Tremor version albeit not both.  High horsepower SUVs are pretty common though but in street trim.  BMW has all of the Ms.  Cadillac has the insanely expensive new Escalade V.  Lamborghini has the Urus. Mercedes has anything AMG.  Audi has the SQ or whatever they have. Keep and Dodge both have the hellcat variants.  It’s a shame Lightning was branded as an EV, and it makes sense that is was, but it would have been cool to carry that over to a street version of the f150 and then the expedition.

Nah, they won’t do it. However after looking into it, it’s not that hard to swap in the Raptor suspension.

Nah, Ford won't do it, but we all know somebody who would.  :funny:
