About “Gothica”

This is my truck, 04 F150 Supercab XLT 5.4L. Its my daily driver, daily worker, and it does it all very well. Tows great, moves quick when needing to and very comfortable. Problem free truck, very happy with it. Always been a Ford man, gave the GM a chance, decided to stay true blue.
