I am going to keep your services in mind.... We did fairly well on our first new car purchase 5yrs ago (~15% off sticker with 0% interest) but never know what the next car will be, may be more outside of my wheelhouse. My time is worth something, and don’t mind paying a professional when I have the sense he can be…

Going out on a limb here, but I bet this is a good way to contact him

Yes, accept the Vette locks you out of upper RPMs until it hits like 500 miles or something. Here is the procedure GM recommends:

There better be motherfucking video! (in landscape)

Fully on board with this.... until I spent 2 weeks in an Ecoboost F150. The power and torque band of that motor is just spot on amazing. I haven’t spent much time in the 5.0, but coming away from that Ecoboost made me move towards selecting it as the motor over the 5.0. And that is with me always putting exhaust on a…

So....if.....

For me, it hasn’t been an issue after about 5 minutes and taking a couple of turns. The most confusing thing? The turnsignal! Be it manual or auto, my left hand frequently reached up to slip the turnsignal, and most of the right hand drive cars I have driven, has the signal on the right. Some of the cars had a…

At the slow speed they were going, he wasn’t tail gating. He had a reasonable gap in my eye, but it’s just an opinion. Just like you think he was too close.

Just like put-some-turbo-on-meeeeeeeeee says, as long as you have enough gap to stop is all that is needed. Lots of factors play into the gap you should leave such as how distracted you are as a driver (playing with the radio, increase gap), braking abilty of car, weather, etc. Clearly this driver was paying good…

Get a more powerful engine :D

I rarely use it either on i95 in Philly, but Philly or NJ turnpike, that’s a different story. The more I get out out of the city/traffic, the more I use it. Maybe you just are not getting on large open highways, particularly 4 lanes+?

I am sort of on the fence with NP vs. CP. Personally, I think it’s a joke and would never pay $38k for a Fox, and I am a Mustang guy. Someone made the joke that Foxes can’t be rare, I disagree. The car is old enough now, it came out ~37 years ago (1979) to certainly qualify as a classic. Saleen is effectively the…

I don’t understand how you could not understand cruise control and manual........ The transmission is not related to the fact that the primary point of cruise control is to hold highway speeds. At highway speeds, you don’t need to downshift. Shift into 5th/6th and set cruise just like an automatic. I use the shit out…

I am to, if there was higher quality video and photos.

I have the SAME problem. Anytime I see water, I immediately think where is the intake? Here is the damage from my hydro-locked 351w.

I do seem to recall something along those lines, yes. The new ones are a bit strange as they continue to stiffen the frame (industry trends) and I think it moves the bends into new places, etc...

Mine was 5.8, so I was forced into auto. Which I actually preferred as well. I rebuilt and did a few upgrades/mods to the motor. Ran really strong. I sold it about 10yrs ago, I do miss it and would like to have it back (but only if someone took good care of it). When I sold it, I had a short list of changes I wanted…

This explains my old 93 F150

For me, someone broke into my truck when I was 16, stealing the system I had put in it just months prior. CD changer, 2 subs in a box, and the amp :( Right in the driveway of my house during a school night!

Indeed, though it depends. Clearly this is a learning moment for me, and others. However, I have also talked with some American Iron drivers, and there are plenty that do run the knock offs. Like anything I am sure some knock off brands are better than others, as well as different wheel designs perform better as well.…
