Wouldn't 40lbs be like a kindergartner or a bull dog? It could still help a little bit?

It's a very so she's heavy anyways. 40 lbs won't make or break me for sure. I don't mind it being a little heavy anyways. She does really well at high speeds which is unlike any other mustang I've ever owned.

I've done that on a car at work that needed new glass in the quarter window. No fun at all! The light bar was a pain in the rear.

Can tell you the Boss handles very well at high speeds!

Went over 4K on the odometer today.

I need a new drivers quarter glass and haven't had any luck finding one yet. Rubber stripping is messed up.

Bought oil. My 13 is at 1800+ miles. When would you do the first & successive changes with Amsoil? Im thinking 2,500, then at 10k, then every 10k. Its a DD in New England & I currently average 9-10k/year.

had the coil pack and spark plug changed in the fifth cylinder and found out I might be leaking coolant into the cylinders. either the manifold or the head gasket.

That's exactly what was up with the car at work! haha. It was missing that rubber strip which left a ~1/2 inch gap when the windows were up. But you can't buy just the seal so we got a whole new glass out of a wrecking yard. I put it in and then stupid me, buttoned everything back up before I tested it and then I had to tear it all down, light bar and all, again when I realized it didn't line up right and needed some adjustment.

I was referring to the 1 bedroom sharing comment. I also remember your obsession with Hawaii and that is completely cool. We all need aspirations in life and you getting back to Hawaii is pretty friggin awesome and worth dreaming about IMO.

You know that you "can" be a beach bum 365 days a year out there, right?
