There is one on US19 & Tampa Road (Hillsborough Ave). Black w/23" wheels. Looked like it was pretty tight. Had tint, racing stripes, billet grilles, bed topper, etc... I think $14k or so?! 
I just don't want a black one, unless I have to lol...

Ya, i think its supposed to have around 500 hp. I used to work up there and it has a bunch of bolt-ons. Not sure what the price is on it though.

I absolutely loved my '02 when I had it. Really fun truck to drive, just terrible on gas and it's impossible to keep your foot out of them to improve the mileage. Lower pulley, CAI, a good tune, and a FTVB (valve body for the trans) and you're set...
To be honest I miss mine but it did tend to leach a bit more money per month than I had anticipated when buying it...

I had the same problems with my '03 Cobra...
Car Payment: $483
Insurance Payment: $570
Gas Expense/Month: $500+
Car Washes/Month: ~$150
(fugging black cars in FL rainy seasons, grrr)
AND then there were mods, races, and street racing
Needless to say, niggas get broke quick at over $1700/month on a dayum car
Still miss that pig though...
Hoping the L will treat me a little better, and I will treat it a little better as well (a lot less racing and NO street racing)... I'm looking to have it as a DD and to pull Frankie to/from multiple locations
I've seen the trucks go for as cheap as 12k, as high as 34k... I'm hoping to buy in the 14-17k range myself. Looking for an '02 preferrably, with less than 60k miles on it, and FAIRLY stock. I'd like to pickup an Oxford White L, but would settle for Silver if I had to...
