    Best ET tonight... again :) VIDEO ADDED!

    That's awesome. I can't wait to get my GT... I'm so dying to get back to the track. It's been four long years since I last ran the 1/4... ugh.

    big guy in a little mustang possible?

    I don't know about you guys but my old Mustang was always motivation for me to get fit and stay fit. First time I went to the track I decided I needed to get my race weight down as much as possible. :lol:

    Friend bought an R35 Skyline

    But with any performance mods I don't think it's hard to "prove" the mods caused the problem. If the problem has anything to do with the drivetrain all the dealership has to argue is that the extra power as a result of the performance mods put too much stress on the drivetrain component and...

    08 GT transmission noise

    The Mustang has always had quirks like this as long as it's been around. The transmission whine is part of owning a Mustang. Just take it as a subtle reminder that you've got 300+ HP and a beautiful v8 exhaust note at your whim. Like Grey said, if you really can't stand it then Dynamat...

    Friend bought an R35 Skyline

    I actually think the Skyline looks pretty cool. I think it looks nice in red. It's not a car I'd go out and buy, even if I had the money, but I certainly wouldn't mind having one.

    That's just you getting used to it.

    What is it with civic owners???

    It's just fun. A lot of them are young and are having fun getting into cars. When I was used to driving nothing but my parent's minivan and Buick land yacht I thought my first V6 Mustang was the fastest thing on earth. :rlaugh: But it was a good starter and I had fun with it.

    What is it with civic owners???

    You know, the funny thing is Civic owner's are always asking, "What's up with Mustang owners?" It goes both ways. You're always going to have some tard driving either car. And as an owner of both I can attest to that. Civics trying to run my old GT and GT's trying to run my Civic! As for...

    How does your spouse feel about your Mustang?

    I think once you drive her around in it she'll like it. Take her to to dealership and test drive the car with her. All girls like Mustangs, no matter what they say. It might take a while to get some of them to turn or to admit it, but they do. It's encoded in their DNA. My fiancée...

    Gas Prices

    Yep, and what a lot of people don't realize who are quick to criticize the oil companies (Americans like to point the blame at somebody) is that the crack spread has been tightening for a while, making things difficult for the oil companies. The crack spread is the difference between the price...

    just wanna share some pics...

    Man that looks mean. Very nice!

    Gas Prices

    For FY07 XOM's profit margin was about 10%. Their tax rate for that year was a ridiculously high 42.4%, so Uncle Sam took nearly $30 billion from them in '07. Selected profit margins from other leading companies for FY'07: Lockheed Martin, 7.25% PepsiCo, 14.33% Apple, 14.56% Toyota, 6.53%...

    FORD has 8.7 billion dollar loss!

    The euro Fiesta is pretty cool, and I've always been a fan of the Focus, especially the European-only models. I'd love to have a Euro-spec Focus over here for a DD.

    FORD has 8.7 billion dollar loss!

    Yep, it always is 20/20. Still, there are some mistakes Ford has made (not exclusive to them... really to the big three) along the lines that I feel could have been avoided if forward thinking minds were in place. The big problem with Ford (and again, not exclusive to them) is that they...

    FORD has 8.7 billion dollar loss!

    The problem is production numbers, not really model lineup. Ford has relied on F-150 and SUV sales for a long time to provide the brunt of it's profit. Ever wonder how dealers could knock $10k off a Ford SUV and still turn a profit? Those were the money makers, and while gas prices were still...

    FORD has 8.7 billion dollar loss!

    Not surprising. It's going to take a while before Ford can even think about turning a profit. A lot of painful restructuring has to take place to put Ford in a position to compete profitably in this environment. It's funny, though, that this situation could have been avoided if Ford...

    Water Mark Removal

    Thanks. It looks great. I will probably choose that over Alloy. Though I really wish Ford offered True Blue... my favorite color in the whole wide world.

    a New Spin on the 'retro look'

    Sometimes I think the retro stuff gets taken a bit too far. The window covers do look tacky. Like Dark said they'd look better if they were blended like they came from the factory.

    Dumb to buy Smart?

    Yea, I guess that is a little two-sided.
