I purchased my current truck in February of 2012 when it was traded in at the dealership I was working at. The truck is a 2004 and only had 19k miles on it. Being a previous owner and regretting trading my first truck in, I had to have it. So I purchased it at a very good price. The truck was owned by an older gentleman who rarely drove it as you can see by the miles, and it was garage kept the whole time. Here are pictures of the day I brought it home:





























 
That's a good possibility! :D
 
The very first thing I did to both of my 10s was shave the emblems. I just think it really cleans up the look of the truck.









 
Added my vanity plate, with SRT-10 plate frame and smoke license plate shield. Made much more power on the dyno after this mod.

I said the same thing, unfortunately priorities shift and events in life make you realize how much more important family is than the toys you drive.
 
I ran the truck several times at the track until I perfected my launch and shifting techniques. Here are all of the videos I have of my stock runs:

The final video was my fastest stock run which was 13.5 @ 103mph. The only changes made to the truck were adjusted tire pressures front and rear.
 
I also had a baseline dyno done on the truck before any modifications were done:

Highest HP and TQ run was the first. It appears heat took its toll after the first run and there was a drop in both HP and TQ.

The next step for me was another visual mod and a necessity on all of my vehicles. I had the windows tinted, 5% on the side and back windows, 20% on the windshield. Needless to say, I don't drive the truck much at night.









 
I added some more exterior mods at this point. Flat black housing aftermarket headlamps and a Fangs hood emblem.





 
and just one more picture, one of my favorites before we sold the 300.
