summer is over so I decided to put the Truck back on the road today. only put 3400 Km's on the stang this year lol. I did get to do a bunch of stuff this year to it though. Got the new 6 pc headlights in, Welded in some SFC's, BBK headers, Plugs, Cap & rotor, new fluids, LX tail's, had the car sprayed with Krown and also did 3 oil changes lol.

It will be going in storage in a feww weeks I still want to do a few things to it yet. It will be comming out again next May.

man now is the best cruising time of the whole year! not so hot, nice scenery...you should have another solid month of it up by you, i usually keep mine out until mid november sometime or whenever they start salting/sanding the roads. then it goes away until april.

I am pulling my stang off the road in a few weeks too. A sad day knowing I won't drive it untill next May when I return from College.

I know it is early but the truck is more practical for me...the car is just a summer toy. Plus I am moving in a week and a half......and insurance is half the price lol

It is early, I just got mine out a month or two ago (also not sure how many miles that is but I have put 3000 or so miles on mine within the two months it has been on the road, as well as 14 track passes and countless close course runs, usually with LS1s).

It isn't bad up here, as we get those months of down time to work on them, where you guys will be missing out on cruising when doing large scale mods!

Im not putting mine away until the weather gets bad.
I drove it until February this past winter but now that the body is redone Ill put it away sooner.
It just sucks that I havent even put 3000 miles on the car since I bought it last August and I didnt drive it from March until last week because it was in the bodyshop that long.

Mine isn't put away yet, but it will probably go into storage next month.
I barely drove it this year - 200 miles, yes, 200 miles total. Granted I bought a house this year so I've been busy, but that is just pathetic.
Then again, if there's even a HINT of rain within 24 hours, it does not come out
