Took both the mustang and the Raptor today to the Rochester Car Show. The Mustang was up against a f-body Camero, the Blue Roush that I always lose to, a couple of PT Cruisers, a SSH and a Prowler with a trailer. Well the Roush won (of course), 2nd was the Prowler and 3rd was a PT Crusier. The funny thing is I took the Raptor just so people would look at it. Almost didn't enter it in the Truck 4X4 class but I did and got 2nd place. A 06 Dodge Daytona 4x4 w/ a Hemi won.
WTF!!!!!

You need to find some different shows to go to. Those people obviously have no taste.

That Raptor's pretty hot!
You should bring it to the Roseland show and not the mustang, because i'll bet there's only gonne be like 10 cars there and I want a chance at an award.

Is it pretty fast? How does it sound? Have you driven it offroad?

Last year when I went by the Roseland car show there was 3 cars.

The best thing I can say about the Raptor is it was a very soft ride compare to my 07 F-150. It was a little roar from the pipes. Taking it back to Campbell monday morning, when I washed it this morning I found a 10" crease on the back fender that was painted over.

Hopefully he'll have a better turnout this year. He had us print out 3000 placemats to give to local restaurants this time around advertising the show.

Have you tried driving over any curbs yet? You know.. just because you can, now... lol

Should be no problem as the crease has prefect paint and clear coat over it and was clearly done at the Factory.

Oh ok, that's cool I thought you meant the dealer did it and tried to fix it themselves.

Still losing to that blue Roush huh?

Hey Nick

If you want to win a award go to the 4-H Fairgrounds car show. All cars will win a 1st, or 2nd, or 3rd place trophy. They judge for points and all cars win.
