just the mach 460 for stereo. It's been lowered and has exhaust work done to it. No engine mods or interior stuff that I can see.

I'm going to get the amp out of my jeep this week, and I'll use it again in the Mustang. probably mount it on the back of the seat in the trunk.

I'll know once I get it up in the air. I think it's flowmasters, simply because this car wasnt modified much, and that's a name most people know that arent totally into mods and mustangs, so it's likely to be their choice.

Just think mine will kinda be like that. I will prolly split the ground at half throttle.

The one in the video I believe aint even a big block. But I could be wrong.

Man that kinda sucks but at the same time it doesnt. Transmissions dont really cost that much nowadays. Unless it is like my 05 Diesel with a computer running the dang thing.

Nice!


Had some strange dreams last night. The first was that we got 8" of snow. Second was about some evil black squirrels.

Good to hear it's running good and Congrats for your new ride

flight out, second leg to texas


leg room proved to be a pretty big issue, funny, didnt think I'd be saying that about that particular mode of transportation for the day.




second of 5 rainbows we saw on the way back, rain was off and on, not really really heavy anywhere (which was good, because the wipers suck), just some real bad fog the last 1.5 hours of the trip.



crossing the Mississippi River





Raptor sighting!













Trip Wrap Up:
I love the car. There was a bit of a frustrating mix up over the taxes on the car, they were supposed to be covered in the price I paid, so I'm a bit ticked about that. Car drives fantastic, and sounds incredible (vids to come). I ended up averaging 26mpg the trip back, which is outstanding; the v6 is supposed to get 27 hwy. The trip home is 1070 miles, and I probably drove about 800 of that. We left at 445 to get to the airport, first flight at 545, transfer over in charlotte, then to dallas. Got there about 1020 eastern, left the dealership and gassed up at 1 eastern, then drove straight through. Got my first compliment in Alabama, we stopped for dinner, came out, and a guy was looking at my car, and goes, dude, I looove the color, haha. I kept on driving till midway through Alabama, then let dad drive to atlanta, then I took over for 1.5 hours, then he drove the next 1.5 hours home. We got back around 615 this morning.

Issues: I gotta buy some floormats, as well as the A/C register for the dash on the drivers side, the defrost bit. I've also gotta see if I can get the electrical panel to stay on the door, it juts out just a bit. All of that is simple easy stuff. There's also a hairline crack in the middle of the back of the spoiler, which I wont worry about.

The problem I have is that half way back, I got a service engine soon light. I'm going to have my mechanic check it out, and everything else, to see what he says. The car ran perfect, so I'm guessing a simple sensor.

And I have to buy tires, but I knew about that going in.

All in all, I'm very happy with this thing. Dad was like a kid in the candy store when I let him drive it, haha. He loves the sound of the exhaust. Says it's like a racecar, so much power, you pretty well just have to idle down the street. Let the mods begin!
And now, make a thread to be as cool as us

shorty antenna, chin spoiler, sequentials, stereo stuff, floormats, maybe HID's, but I'm not doing the lights w/o the fogs.

I'm not gonna go to extravagant with it, it's going to be my DD, so I want it driveable.
Looks like a good mod list to start with

I like those trucks. And with some minor tweaks those 700R4s' can be made near bulletproof. Congrats.
