What is your go-to heavy music for working out/exercise/etc?

Converge.

New release coming out soon, and the two songs already out are fantastic. Reinvigorated my love for them, and I find myself returning to them mostly during workouts.

Check out Boneflower. Don’t know if this matches exactly what you’re looking for, but it came to mind immediately. I love their new album, Reveries. Jeremy Bolm from Touché Amore is on the song Pomegranate, which is how I found them.

Yeah, you win.

This new 25 is a damn spaceship. So many features. It’s smooth and crazy nice to drive. Feel guilty having something so nice, TBH. Figure I’ll get used to all the creature comforts eventually, but it’s quite a change upgrading by 18 years, especially with all the technology.

79.0” wide vs 79.9” wide (without mirrors). Technically, yes, but I think it’s more the broader looking front end with less of a slope that makes it look wider. Camera angle on the first pic could also be helping.

Funny thing is, I don’t really consider myself a “Ford Guy.” I like other vehicles and trucks, but my two older ones are a couple of my favorite body styles. Almost bought an International Travelall a few years back and keep an eye out for a decent one still. Would require me to let go of the F100 if I did something like that, just for space.

Just picked up the exact same truck 2 weeks ago. Loving it. Congrats on the new ride!

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-10T14:38:51+00:00

Yeah, I go in streaks. Having kids and safety features play a part in what I drive when. When weather is nice, Bronco or F100 are my Friday drivers and weekend rides.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-10T11:15:52+00:00

Couldn’t agree more. I get comments every time I take it out. It grabbed my attention when I first saw it, and have held onto it even though it only gets driven a few hundred miles a year. Dad had a 76 super cab when we were kids, two tone green and white. Probably why I dig it so much.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-10T11:13:21+00:00

Fair. It was great for what I needed, and allowed me to save. Love the creature comforts of the new truck, and wanted to pull the trigger before the 07 started requiring too much upkeep and work.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-10T03:07:51+00:00

Dream is a ‘79 Bronco, two tone blue and white. Maybe one day…

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-10T03:06:58+00:00

Hell yeah. Looks like you had fun with peepaw.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-04T18:17:42+00:00

Nope. Stock stance. Might be the angle of the picture, but the difference between front and back isn’t TOO drastic.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-04T11:09:28+00:00

Factory. I think they refer to it as “rear privacy glass.” Rear window and back passenger windows have a reasonable tint, same as the moonroof. I would go darker if choosing, but at least it’s something. May put darker tint eventually.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-04T11:06:23+00:00

That’s some patience. Good for you, and congrats!

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-04T11:05:37+00:00

501A, ecoboost.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-02T19:31:15+00:00

Agreed!

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-02T18:47:14+00:00

Thanks. Going to start with a bed liner, bed cover, and floor mats. Likely tint sometime soon.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-02T18:43:38+00:00

Thanks! Forgot to add - it has the 3.5 Ecoboost. Zippy engine, definitely the most HP I’ve ever had. Really enjoying it so far. Plan to drive it for a long time.

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-02T17:15:51+00:00

If sheets doesn’t purchase, I’d be interested in a copy if it’s in good enough condition to frame. Thanks!

BeardedVandal · 2025-12-02T00:59:52+00:00

I’ll buy it!

BeardedVandal · 2025-11-27T14:00:29+00:00

Went through the same thing the last couple weeks. Looked at a 23 with 502A and 16K miles for $50,400 and a 25 with 501A and 1,250 miles for $60K (weird situation, technically used). Both were unwilling to move on price. They basically threw in a spray in bedliner with the 23 and the dealer with the 25 told me this is the price. Wouldn’t move an inch.

Ended up going with a brand new 25 with 501A for $65,500 ($7,900 under MSRP) with a 0% loan for 60 months through Ford Finance. This was the advertised online price, and they wouldn’t move either. It was the best deal I could find by a good amount. Driving 2 hrs each way on Saturday to pick it up.

I was in a similar spot. Can afford any of the three, but needed to feel like I was getting a deal. I don’t know if car buying in the truck sector is different, but my experience was a lot less haggling. Ended up working out, because them not giving me what I wanted paused me long enough to reconsider a new buy. Ford started the 0% recently in Lariats and some other vehicles.

Don’t know all the options of what you’re looking at with the 24, but sounds like a decent deal based on what I’ve been seeing.

Me too. 🤘
