    PAINT crazing at 53k

    Sorry about your paint I still think it's funny that the Ford and Mercury dealers I went to looked at my defective paint and called it, "normal."

    Costco's & BFG 255/55 KDW2

    You can cancel your membership for a refund. Certainly go elsewhere for your tires. They might have a better price, but not a better deal... unless you enjoy fighting with their people to get the job done.

    Someone ran over my marauder

    From what I hear, that sort of thing happens fairly regularly in Chicago.

    Saw a black MM in Villa Park by one of the bars. Anyone here?

    Chicago Burbs?

    Mine is the dirty one. I used to work in St. Charles, but now I work in the Northern burbs. Oh... moved out of Lisle two months ago, but I'm still in DuPage.

    What Do You Think?

    If money is tight... why are you asking if you should buy it?! Forget it. Not unless you know this will make you money in your business or it's a deal too good to be true. I wouldn't suspect that a, "Fair deal," is too good to be true. Since you have a connection in the musclecar business...

    New Paint Covered Under Warranty

    Isn't the front end squeak related to the hood latch not being set right? If you do a search you'll see a bunch of folks took care of it by lowering the hood latch a bit.

    :D But he said he wanted to use only Motorcraft filters.

    *Custom Hood Poll*

    I thought all but the stock one looked out of place. Wasn't hood clearance a big part of the reason the 5.4 doesn't fit under the hood? If that's the case, maybe a hood that would allow that engine swap to happen.

    Ford and Mercury Night in Downers Grove 5/26

    Me and the wife were there. We parked at the Mason's lodge (I'm a member). Was there around 7 or so. So no Marauder's other than my own. Did see a Hayabusa with sidecar! Two Cobra replicas looked cool (although one had a EFI 5.0, which wouldn't be my first pick). A good time.

    Ford and Mercury Night in Downers Grove 5/26

    I ran into SVTguy last year. I should be back from China to go again this year. I know I'm hankering to see some cars. My Marauder is the dirty one. 55th and Fairview... wow that was right by where I grew up. Hey... you don't happen to have a 20' tall wood carved woman in your front yard...

    Camaro 3.8L upgrades

    My nephew has a V6 Firebird and has visions of making it a speed demon. I encourage him not to touch any of it, save his cash, and maybe buy something else that is faster. I think it would be cheaper to just buy a V8 F-body than to make a V6 have a V8. Projects like that have that nickel and...

    Can this be the beginning of the end???

    Fast cars aren't the problem. It's all the light trucks everyone is getting for their daily commute. At least where I live and commute light trucks are very prevalent. I'm guessing nearly 40% of the vehicles I see during my commute are light trucks. I do see your point. Fast cars (better...

    My car's paint is screwed!

    The Ford and the L&M shop I deal with won't wash my car. The L&M shop did give me a loaner once. It's crap like this that makes me regret this car.

    One year... still stock

    I'd just like to say... been a year and I'm still not in the collective. :D I'm not counting snow tires and a trailer hitch.
