That is one bad ride..... all of the "perks" you get for "free" at that price sound pretty cool too.

Visit that dealership, they have a ton of cool rides. Amazing to me that you can get an '07 Saleen F150 with the 5.4 for around $20k less than an '07 Saleen Mustang.

That punched out and forged up 4.6 3v with the 6 speed ! thats a light motor pumping out a lot of HP ! a lot better power to weight ratio than the 5.4 !

Well Prokit, Dspecs, and Steeda bumpsteer kit installed, alignment done.
All went well. Being wet and slushy on the way home I could not test out the new suspension.

Looks like the weather is supposed to get better over the weekend. Hopefully you can get her out and lean on her pretty hard to see how much of an improvement it makes.

It was pretty nasty at O'Hare last night, plenty of canceled and delayed flights. Where is spring when you need it? I hope the weather improves by April 12, that's when I'm supposed to be hitting the drag strip for the first time this year.

I wish you luck. Just in case your agent tells you they are presenting an offer you better wear a cup in case it's a low ball offer,the way the market is now days. The value of my house has dropped over $75,000.00 in the last four years. I hope you have another good story to tell as Ben did recently, there aren't many these days!

Well, 20pks of Bud Light bottles were on sale for $13 so I loaded up and also picked up the brake pad tool. Heading to the garage now to get these rotors/pads put on. I am not painting the rotors- they're coated so we'll see how well they hold up.

Oh, got the M&H tires mounted today. 325/40/17s and they're pretty **** big!
