Let me say for the record there is not any time of day I 'hate' Grabber Orange. But let me step up and say this. My least favorite time of day would be mid afternoon in direct sunlight. It's not ugly, by any means. But I could take it or leave it, if you know what I mean (spelled: nothing special).

However, in the early evening right on thru to sunset, this color MORE than makes up for its mediocrity from the mid-day. Some women look so-so in a certain light but rate a perfect 10 with the right lighting. It's kinda like that. (Please forward all future emails to pup_in_doghouse@bigmouth.com...)

Say, is it Grabber Orange in here or is it just me?

Hey Flash, That Lady looks almost as good with her top on as she does with it off. Now just hope that with age she doesn't end up looking like a couple of grapefruits in tube socks. lmffao

Reminds me of that Cheech and Chong skit. Hey Margaret I think that it was. "Hey Margaret, she's so old she's got stretch marks on her lips.."

Engine Tour plus first mod..

OK, since I was done with the exterior (everyone else having a lot of brake dust?), I turned my focus on the interior and engine. Is it just this year's model because of the extra room with the space they made on the body for the Shelby engine, or is there a lot of room to get around that engine block? I thought that things were really accessible on this unit. A few newbie type of questions though...

1) What is the "black box" unit in the front near the radiator with six plugs coming out of it. About the size of a individual size cereal box...Looks like it could be traction or abs related

2) why is it from the outside that the power steering fluid looks blue?


Hey, I got the first mod on tonight. The 14" shorty. If I can squeeze it into my schedule, I will be doing the QuickLifts this weekend....

My window ting guy didn't return my email....need that moleskin on first though..

Last mod for the year would be the sequential lights I think...

I really haven't noiced a lot of brake dust on the wheels, but 85% of my driving is on the highway. I think you might be right on that little black box. THe Brake fluid is the New "Smurf" brand. And DO get the moleskin on.

No, I am talking brake dust on the back quarterpanel behind the rear wheels...Lucky you on the highway driving. I've driven 144 miles and my avg mpg is like 13.9...Last Friday was like 7 MPG because of all the red lights with no power...

Anyone notice the one touch up on the windows? Why can't every car have that? Nice...

I've just about come the conclusion that I need to experiment with disabling the TCS. Too friggin quiet....

Hey pitpup, didn't you say that you changed your oil at 100 miles to get rid of the engine sheet metal gunk? Might need some Rhino ramps...

How come Ed doesn't hang out in this GO forum? We need to make it four with them in their hands...
