    Im bored, so

    AND, the hype is over, 05-06 GTs are starting to pile up on the lots. I can get a 06 GT here for well under MSRP. I can get a even better deal on a "lightly pre-owned" 05GT, and a even better deal on a 05 V6 vert. My daughter is out of school and working this month, so she will start paying...

    I am about to p!$ off a bunch of you

    If the new Shelby is worth $50-60-70,000, thats what Ford should set the dealer invoice at. If someone is going to make a killing, I would rather see the Company make the money, not some greedy dealership owner who wants an extra vacation this year.

    Im bored, so

    Im thinking of selling the 05. The wife wants a sedan and Im not selling the F150. So I think I will criuse the lots and look at the offerings. My dream car (that I can afford) is really a 69 or 70 Cougar XR7. So I may send the Stang on its merry way.

    Ok, before I left home I made sure the tires had 35 psi, and the air filter is new, I replace it every 5000 miles. I just dont see any reason for such poor mileage and Im not impressed with the overall performance on the road. Except for passing, from 55-65 mph it will get up and go when needed.

    Mostly interstate 65-70 mph. No significant increase or decrease in elevation. Criuse on. The only difference in teh car is teh addition of Gt bumpers and true dual exhaust, the exhaust should help not hurt mileage.

    983 miles Jonesboro AR to Winfield KS and back, I only averaged 23 mpg. Last trip of over 1000 miles from Va Beach to Memphis I averaged 29 mpg. Why the loss of 6 mpg? The first trip the car had about 3500 miles on her, this trip Im up to about 7,000 miles. Im very disappointed with...

    My Redfire is sans spoiler. I want a ducktail. The wife wants the factory wing. I made the mistake of mentioning that I could probley trade trunk lids with some lucky SOB whose wife wanted the ducktail. She asked how much the ducktail cost. I told her I wasnt sure. Maybe looking at...

    Yet another intake thread

    I have to admit that I havent been under the hood much on my 05. Its winter and in a year Ive only driven the car 7000 miles. 2000 of that was on 2 long roadtrips. So on my 03 Focus, I installed a CAI. Later, I ended up ditching it for an oem SVT Focus intake to make a strut bar and new...

    X pipe dyno results

    We still dont know the gains over a stock V6 one legger. The only conclusion we can draw from your "experiment" is that eliminating the y-pipe is worth 2 hp, on your car. Im still going with the premise that the difference between the oem exhaust and true duals is worth +/- 10-15hp on a...

    What is the best CAI for V6

    I think a $300 CAI for our cars is a big waste of money, period. Its my belief that the gains come from having a smooth tube between the TB and MAF. Of course, C&L and every other company that is fleecing us for $300 CAIs arent going to admit this.

    What is the best CAI for V6

    Your all wrong about the reflash. The MAF is matched to the size of the inlet tube. Some aftermarket inlet tubes, like the C&L have a larger inlet tube, this throws off your MAF. Thats why the computer needs to be reflashed. It has nothing to do with increased airflow into the...
