Picked this up over the weekend. It's nice to be able to leave the Mustang in the garage and not have to worry about anything happening to it.

I'm the third owner, truck has 143k (almost) miles on it, previously owned by my good buddy Patrick for the past 5 years. It's also nice to have a truck again and not have to worry about dog hair. Lol

A daily you don't care about is always nice to have. No worries about door dings, hail or some idiot on their cellphone hitting you.


LOL@ putting the truck in your sig though.

Ehh, I can't let my days from my truck forums die off completely. That was where this curse I call a hobby started. :D

That's the way to go. Trucks are great and I may sport mine in the sig too.

By not driving the Mustang so much, I will put little miles on it. However, those miles are very hard track miles...but still just 13K on the Mustang. Technically only 715 miles since the rebuild when I blew the piston.

LOL, damn. Mine is sitting at 11,2xx I think. I haven't driven it in over a month. It's just waiting for it's new owner.

That reminds me, I need to go out there and start both the Mustangs. I don't think the Mach has been started in a couple of months or so. haha.

Ouch. Do you drain the gas? Doesn't it lose it's octane rating after it has sat up for a while?

Nah. Strokd's cars sit for much longer extended periods of time and they are fine. Besides we arent talking about big horsepower cars here but rather lil bolt on cars.

Yeah. So needless to say keeping miles off my car make me happy. Plus drive an anemic 4 spd automatic truck around all the time will let me enjoy the car more when I take it out

Having a truck is nice but I do miss my sports car. If I do end up not going to medschool I'll get back in the game.

Car wont be stock much longer. After my first round of mods you will need boost to make it close. Lol

Boooo. I can't seem to get a race with a mild bolt on Stang with this car. lol. I don't care if I win or lose, I just want to see how it compares.
