You know, I've always tried to be very respectful of people who come from the north, because despite of some of their peculiar ways, we are all fellow Mustang lovers, and Americans... And here I am being called a red neck...

My apologies SIr. No disrespect meant.

I have been trying to fill my days with productive things. All this time I could have been involved in threads like this one.

I have been missing the good things in life. You guys are rather amusing.

This made me literally lmao. Very entertaining derail.

Boosted, I sure hope you didn't take any of this personally. Some funny chit...and I must be a northern redneck(probable) because I knew both of your "slang".

This was fun.

I was in California a few years back, I know..., and I met a guy vacationing from Wales. I was trying to explain to him where I was from and I used the term redneck to describe myself and fellow Georgians. It didn't occur to me that he would not understand the term. After I explained it to him, he could not stop laughing.

Inner fender splash guard is installed, but there is a decent sized opening right behind the fog light area from the factory. I thought maybe, since it's a low pressure area at speed, some rain mist might get sucked in.

Update, the car did wonderful, even had to weather a little bit of slushy ice on the windshield for the first time ever. Ohio weather for ya. I will update my V3 thread with the numbers.

Think of it as a low buck water/meth injection.....without the methanol.

FWIW, I've been running a N/A power pipe on my combo now for 2-years with zero issues.

I was wondering if anybody would say something like that lol. I ran a N/A power pipe for a long time too, but I don't think it ever saw rain.
