My new comuter car

[Pappy]

We have been kicking around getting a car (we have 2 trucks) and I wanted another mustang:p So after keeping an eye on a few around i settled on this 04

[tgreenz400]

looks good....i like the color. how much was it?:confused:

[Pappy]

5 speed and cobra rims, other then an exhaust its stock

[Ghost-Rider]

Nice :D

[DVXracer]

Very nice, how many miles ?

[Pappy]

38,000 miles

first stang ive driven in awhile that was still tight, most get the snot beat out of them. i couldnt see myself driving a taurus or a maxima but i had to get a car. i drive so much i want to atleast have something kind of sporty:p

[Kickstarts-suck]

ahh very nice im a huge mustang fan


get a Kenne Bell and it :):macho

[pro-rider46]

is that a v6 or v8?

nice buy by the way

[pro-rider46]

sorry i take that back i saw it was a gt. you are driving my dream car.

[TRUE]

looks awesome!

[rcer450r]

Sweet car pappy, I love it.

[WhiteYFZ]

looks nice pappy. but no haulin ur 5th wheel with that lol

[GlowBoy]

I like the GT's, my dream car is a Saleen S281, or a Lightning with a KB swap.

[JOEX]

Very nice!:cool:

Any tickets yet?:devil:

[Pappy]

no tickets on the way home:p my last "car" was a low 11 second daily driver so this is slow by comparison. if i wanted fast id build fast, this will work well to help me pass the commute in a bit more comfort and also allow me not to be in a monday morning rush to un-hook the trailer etc:p

[JOEX]

I hear ya about the tow rig vs the daily commuter routine, the Subaru is much more comfortable than the Dakota but not as quick as the Mustang:p

Tell us about the 11 sec car :D

[Pappy]

it was a 91 mustang lx with all the typical bolt on goodies, worked heads, cam , exhaust gears and a supercharger. my wife drove it when she was pregnant with cody , i geuss it ram high 12's then, and i just kept learning to get more out of it. best pass was a 11.24 on radials. i drove it everywhere:p ofcourse by the time it was over, it had no creature comforts and was hell on wet roads but i had a blast and didnt get into much trouble with it. now, 10 years later i dont even have the urge to see how well it will take a corner or just how much the tranny will take from power shifting it:devil: i can usually break a T-5 at will, 3rd gear is a bit weak:p one weekend i went through 3 or 4 trannys at one event:ermm: wife didnt like the credit card bill that followed:scary:

[Gray33]

Must be where Cody got some racing instinct:D Aren't racing and creature comforts an oxymoron, road performance nowadays is about the best gas mileage lol...

[gncc025]

nice gt. i think that billet grill is a must. i have to say im a bigger fan of the older fox body stangs though. most people i talk to think their ugly as hell lol, but i like em. Anyways, nice car pappy

[ZBlaster]

lose the billet grille, lower it, get an MGW orange handle, JLT intake, LT's, O/R X, SCT XCal2 and a good dyno tune and it will be a completely different beasts... 2v's love boost too, so a procharger or a vortech on a couple pounds wouldnt hurt any :devil:

[Which 450?]

Man that car looks nice as hell, nice color

[Raptor68]

Nice car, but don't be knockin the Maximas too much. I have an '02 Maxima SE 6 spd with the 255HP 3.5 L V6 and have given several stock Fox-body 5.0s and SN95 Mustangs a run for their money.

Ditto on that. I have an 02 also. It is much fun to play sometimes. Stang suppose to be fast and when they can't lose you or you pull on them...Priceless



Nice car by the way.

[Villageidiott83]

If driven properly the grill wont be what everyone is looking at.

[biker]

W.Virginia mountains + snow + Mustang=:scary: :eek:

On a side note! I was in the Weston area over the weekend and man people can be idiots on RT 79 dodging in and out of traffic like there bootleggin or somthing my buddy told me it is nothing to see life flight land on the freeway once a week!:eek2:

[derekhonda]

saw your new speeding ticket laws the other day on the news, you better trade that sucka in and get you a geo

[Ghost-Rider]

Geo for pappy ?:devil:

[Villageidiott83]

i didnt know if he understood so go f yourself.

I understood, and the Mach 1 has a hood shaker, not a scoop, so theres a hole in the hood where it sticks out.

Keep this up and you'll be out of here. :grr:

Go take a time out in the corner and re-read rule #1 listed below!

[400exrider707]

Nice car Pappy, looks real clean. I believe when me and my buddy were looking at those new, the GT's were rated at 29mph highway!

They'll still never get that V8 sounds, whether the same speed or not...:p

[Raptor68]

This is identical to how my '02 Maxima 6spd sounds...maybe not like a Mustang V8, put pretty good none the less...
