They did that on my version. Lee has the Grand Cherokee, but it has the same uconnect system so probably just a vulnerable as well.

Might not be that bad when you think about it. If you get too ****ed up when you're out somewhere, you could just call someone and have them drive you home from their laptop.

Hey Lee, do your explorers have cup holder inserts like these? Mine doesn't have any and I'm sick of trying to keep stuff from falling over.

I was browsing vin numbers and my 2008 Mustang is now on it's 5th owner. 45,490 miles on it and was sold for 18K.

It was just sold 2 weeks ago. I wish I would have browsed sooner. I could have seen some pics of it at the selling dealer.

I know what you mean, I always have a bottle of water with me and if its full it falls over into the floor when you turn quickly (usually the passenger side where you can't reach it). It also makes a rattling/squeaking noise that drives me crazy on long trips. I have to stuff a napkin in the bottom to keep it from doing that.

My '96 had 1 of those. My 2000 had 1 when I first got it, but its gone missing over the years and my 2001 never had one, were already gone when I got it.

Yep. Might buy one and see if it helps. My bottles always fall towards the drivers side though.

Went to the track today. Didn't get my best runs on video but here were a couple attempts. 1st video I bounced rev limiter in 1st gear. 2nd video spun tires until rear end started to step out in 3rd gear.






I couldn't get the thing to hook up very well.


Best run
60' 2.102
1/8 8.701 @85.2
1/4 13.260 @ 109.17

You make too many right turns!!




Forgot to mention, I made a decent deal with the Shelby. Didn't get raped nearly as bad as I did on the SGT. I've always gotten ****ed on cars my whole life, especially trading. Seems that everyone else on the intarwebs (and people I talk to) always get super deals, even make money when they trade cars (which I think is total bull****, they're just trying to look good, lol).

The sticker on the GT500 was $57K, I bought it for $50K cash and trade of the SGT at the end of the model year sale. Drove the 500 for 4 years. Sticker on the Jeep was $52K, gave them the 500 and wrote them a check for $6K and walked out the door.

Not great, but not bad. I had $50K in the 500, had it for 4 years and got a $52K Jeep for it and $6K. Looking at cash only, I figure it cost me about $6K to have the 500 for 4 years and got a vehicle out of it that is brand new and has a higher sticker price than I paid for the 500 to begin with.



Now my stupid *** is already looking at other cars. Can't decide if I want something used with a 5.0 to supercharge (like a Boss) or a SRT of some sort. Leaning toward a used SRT. Already in love with a white with silver stripe SRT Challenger they have where I bought the Jeep.

Hate to say it, but the next hot rod I buy will have an automatic. I wish I could buy a GT500 with an auto.

I was surprised to see it come up. The only pic I could see was a small thumbnail. If the pic was my old car, someone changed out the grill and got rid of the fogs.
