Speculation and reality are two different things.

Depends if they do air to air or water for the setup.

I don't know what it's supposed to be engineering wise, it just looks small to me. I noticed it during a parade one day and now every time I see one I can't help but notice. I'm sure it doesn't need to be any bigger (because obviously they have engineers figure this sort of thing out) but it wouldn't hurt the looks. Maybe I'm the only person who notices it.

If I drove it, I'd just wreck it again like I did that other one while trying to evade police between long beach and LA

Some people see a brand as a team, so for those individuals it's like cheering for LSU one year and Bama the next.

Not saying I agree, just saying that's why they feel as they do.

So which fricknut lives in a state with no speed limit?

Maybe a handful of the thousands on this board could actually afford to not only buy one, but take it to a place where they could unload all that horsepower for shits and giggles, then afford to fix the dumb shite they frick up after doing it.

Looks ugly. I hate that style. It makes it look like a chick car

yes. There's road courses and drag strips where you can safely air these vehicles out.

Different strokes, brah.

I have never liked that style for the Mustang. I think it's the headlights.

I once worked for the guy that used to own Cellular One, of course when he sold it he had mounds of money, still does.

He's also one of those weekend road course racers. He's owned them all, Ferraris, Vette's, Porsche, Maserati; all the high end shite.

He says that the Ford GT (not mustang) he has is by far the most fun to drive on a course. Braking and handling is unreal according to him.

Nope, made the second generation lighting from 99-04. When I was growing up those trucks came out and I always wanted one, I have an 01 and plan to keep it for a long time.

Twin turbo is pretty sweet, but in my opinion there is nothing like hitting the gas and hearing the whine of the supercharger.

Supercharged Shelby F150 if you have 100K. Robinson Brothers had one that sold for 108K a couple of weeks ago from what I "heard".


I heard the same thing. I just want a F150 with that motor package in a normal King Ranch trim.
