Patrick, I have to say that I am envious of your car collection. Also your Boss looks like a matchbox car next to the Raptor lol.

Thanks. I didnt realize how high the Raptor is unti I parked next to it in the Boss. But a guy in my condo complex has a lifted Super Duty. When I park next to it the Raptor looks like a matchbox truck

I was doing 47 in a 35 and also got a warning, and only a verbal, not written - which is way better. All too often we only post/rant about LEOs being dinks or busting *****. So props to the good ones who are out there to protect and serve, not stroke their own power tripping egos or acting as an aggressive revenue collector for the county/state.

Thank you sir! Keep up the good work!

It's raining, so the Boss stays in the garage this weekend. Bummer, really wanted to take it out to La Jolla this weekend. Let's have a Palm Springs drive soon....

Are you kidding me that you are bummed out because you won't drive your car in the rain? I live in Alaska and would gladly be driving my boss right now in the rain. Instead, it is sequestered in the garage out of the snow, ice and 10 degree temperatures. Get in that bad boy and run it. Then wash it and run it again. Enjoy!

Hey Patrick-- Happy T-day to you and your family! I had a great summer driving the new Boss. What a car! Not sure it will be on the road come Feb or March but we can sure find a pint or two and catch up. Bring pics of your new Raptor and I'll buy the brews this time.

Mike

60 degrees Sunday, 5-10 by Thursday! Gave my 78 year old father his first ride in our Boss. Have only heard him swear one time, until Sunday. All he could say is 'Holy ____t' and giggle!

When I gave my 85 year old mother a ride in my Boss, she went back to her bedroom and got her purse. She said, "just in case we crash and burn, they will able to identify me by my license,"

no picts, but just installed the x-brace from steeda....cant say it was the easiest to get to and wasnt real happy with drilling into my baby but its in and looks good. how is this x-brace comared to the ford x-brace that is in the LS version as far as installation (i know the back seat needs to be removed) just in case another boss is in my future i might want to get that one instead of the steeda.

I guess we treat our Boss's differently. If I get 3 weekends of rain a year, why risk putting the Boss on the road when I have almost 50 other weekends when it is 70-80 and sunny? I can drive in the rain, lived in WA for a decade, but the other people cannot.

Good point. I guess when you have all that great weather year round you can take a weekend off. I suppose I was thinking you were whining when maybe I was really feeling sorry for myself. **** I miss driving my Boss.

Well at least we all agree on one thing. We all hate it when we can't drive our Bosses!!! :-)
