I had an '05, traded it for the one I have now.... Could have swore they had signals in them??? I'll have to dig up a pic when I get home tomorrow... Now you've got me curious.

We have a winner. It was in an accident. Besides everything that Shu pointed out. Notice how the flares don't really match the gold rocker panels.

Besides the car fax report tells me so. It was wrecked and repaired. Didn't say anything about salvage title though.

There was 2 types of tow mirrors. Signal and non-signal. Probably about 10% of the trucks had non-signal mirrors.

Other things to notice, no fog lights, hmmmm why is that. I need to find where it is parked at though. I need the tailgate.

I would bet it was wrecked in the front end... go check it out big... drive it and beat it like a red headed step child.. wonder what chip/tunner it had at one time.. maybe head gasket issue

It probably didn't have fog lights to begin with. My 05 and my cousins 05 don't have fog lights.

Your forgetting the worst part. Someone put a ball on the bumper instead of using the hitch.

The ball on the bumper doesn't bother me all that much. Besides if you look at the ball it is not even scratched up. So I doubt it was used. But if you look at the trailer plug it is upside down. I wonder why.

as far as the trailer ball he could have towed a small utility trailer or skidoo trailer.. I have towed off the step bumper with my old f150's never anything big or heavy.. usually the skidoo trailer maybe 2000lbs or so
