I love trips to P.A.!!!

Wide open, flat roads with no cops, and GREAT scenery to take pics!!
I am loving this car more and more each day though!! Averaged 25.5mpg on the 110mi trip up here doing 75 all the way. and the power in this car is RIDICULOUS compared to my 2010 without the blower. And coming from someone with a blown 2010 4.6, I have to say this 5.0 feels just about the same. The 60-80mph on the highway is insane, it just slams you back in the seat.

anyway heres some pic lol









NEW


OLD


The lighting sucked for all these pics and the car was filthy since its been raining all week, but next time I am up here I will wash & wax the car just like
I did with the 2010 before I took pics by the lake.

Hope you guys enjoy and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

Thanks everyone!!

and the wheels are TSW Nurburgrings that I had powder coated semi-gloss black. They're 18x9 up front with a 255 and 18x9.5 out back with a 285.

Nice looking ride! You should take a ride out to Carlisle for the ford nationals, really scenic and wide open roads.

I keep forgetting to update my sig, but I sold the hid kit (it was out of my 2010). I was planning on going with the factory hid housings since its the only option I really wanted that it didnt come with, but I did some reading and found out all the wiring needs to be changed as well. I will either be going with 8000k 55w, or 6000k again.

heres pics of them on my 2010 though

Obviously you weren't driving the Turnpike or I-80! Flat... no cops... NOT!! Great scenery... YES!!

I grew up in Monroeville, near Pittsburgh. Loved PA, just living in OH because I got a good job here 11 years ago.

... Still not sure what "flat" roads you're talking about in PA... OH has FLAT roads! Boring, boring, boring... Except for my semi-annual runs to Mid Ohio!
