Check with your insurance about the windshield. Some will replace your windshield at no cost and doesn't go a against you as a claim as it can be considered a safety hazard.

Hit the end of the line for my '04 Supercrew with 185,000 miles yesterday. Traded her in on a 2016 Supercrew.
Timing chain rattle and phaser noise really ramped up over the last two months. Decided with the large repair looming (and who knows what else), rusted out cab corners, rusty wheel well openings, and paint peeling off the hood, plus a noisy rear axle, it was time to tap out...
When the dealer offered exactly what I was going to get in a private craigslist sale in its condition (and I had tried that route), the decision was easy...
Will miss the stance and look of this generation, and the Red/Tan color I had on it, but the 2.7 is making me forget the 5.4 rather quickly...

Quick question: 04-06 and 07-08 manifolds are different in the sense that 07-08 manifolds are less restrictive than the previous years. However, are they similar enough that OBX mid tube headers for an 04-06 will fit on an 07?

Today I sprayed my chrome front and back bumpers with Plasti Dip. It took about 2 cans. Not trying to sound arrogant but I think it looks pretty good, really like the way it turned out.
Before
After, I plan on getting some black headlights in the near future so kit doesnt look so goofy.
The Back. Disregard the dirty truck lol, I live 3 miles down a dirt road.
