Thanks - I'm really pleased.
Once I get the sticky off the side this week from where the bump strips were and then the mopping takes place it will be like having a new car again.

What Did You Do To Your Car Today?
Well, I took the car out and went for a ride with my GF. We did 300 miles or so on twisty backroads just enjoying the ride and scenery.
While we were cruising I started to think that these make a wonderful grand touring car. Especially when you consider how affordable these are.

Drove mine to bkfst yesterday in pouring rain over Hwy 17 (check it out) and was comfortable even when it wanted to step out a bit (at 50mph) on a few turns. First rain in a month of dry mild temps makes that road dicey if you're not used to it. On the way home, two spinouts on the opposite side. Now I have to clean it, my shorts are fine.

Nice. We bought my sis-in-law a 2018 (Hertz rental) a few years ago and she loves it. Of course, it is better than her '02 Exploder after three transmissions, last being in my driveway, let go. Now just have to deal with the V6 water pump issue. Got an extended warranty good to 117k miles and if it doesn't go out by then, I'm replacing it myself. I did one on a Mazda CX9 (same engine) and it's not too bad, just patience and time. Yep, right into the oil pan!

Guy in our club has a 2003 Cobra. He just dropped it off to have the front bumper repainted. Said its gonna be between $800-900. Is that in line with what you paid? Looks very good.
Yes, $800

Our Mustang club went on our first run of the year. Had 44 cars signed up but due to weather reports I think 31 ended up going. About 70 people. About 300 mile round trip to the Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville, PA. I was there in 2017 but always wanted to go back. Very humbling if you have never been there. Weather was great while we were at the memorial but we take all back roads and make a few stops along the way so it was a 5 hour trip to get there. Only about 2.5 coming home as we were on our own for the return trip. We put the top up and down about 5x because it was sunny for 30 minutes then rain for 5 minutes all day. Car ran great. We were the only Roush there. No SN95's though. There was one Fox body (1993) and a few NE but the rest were all 2005 and newer. I'll try to post a few pics

Ours is right in the middle beside the red one. Black on black vert with silver stripes
Took a picture of it:
We (ie, Pitt) did so well on the draft, I think you should celebrate by posting pictures of your Rousch. Blk/blk vert with silver stripes? Yes. You need to post a pictorial.

Yea that’s about what it costs these days I’m getting my hood and bumper painted should have them back this coming weekend
Still some work in progress, but getting closer to finish it. Still need to adjust the alignment for everything to be square. Then paint it black and do the electrical connections.

pulled the car out to warm it up and do some logs . Thing ran out of fuel in 2 mins lol . Safe to say the tunes probably fine on the last pull I did and it was just low on fuel. It only got to 12.3 which ain’t terrible on e85
Oh man, that’s a kick in the balls!

Yea . No e85 close by so I’ll take it out in a week or so . Start my new job at the mine in town here next Wednesday 7on 7 off . I’ll still be able to keep my customers taken care of with my auto transport business with this kind of schedule. 39.83 a hour to start I’ll take it . Been finding myself bored at home too much lately . My house is paid for so no mortgage mainly doing the job to keep my sanity .
