  1. Likely just annual convoy training where half the fucking vehicles break down because they do nothing but sit all year.
  2. MGW shifters are popular in the Camaro groups. I'd like one eventually, but they're not cheap.
  3. Punch in a price range, select manual trans, hit enter.. pretty hard.
  4. So all the inexpensive car posts have straight up disappeared.
  5. I don't have the motivation to save a couple bucks buying oil at Walmart then buying filters elsewhere. All they've had is Fram junk from what I recall.
  6. Right, because craigslist is generally a last resort to selling a car. Now that last resort costs money, so it's essentially rendered itself useless.
  7. I'd rather build a garage that I can walk to, not drive to. It's also a pretty major improvement that will raise your property value.
  8. Same. I get bored and browse old cars and now there's only a fraction of what used to be. It either skimmed all the fat (scammers) leaving only real posts, or people are really cheap.
  9. It's impossible that somebody would take a base model Civic and change it to a Type R.
  10. It was the '13 mitchstang. He bought it new, put 4k babied miles on it, then jet autoed it. I traded a couple things towards it (commander and contour svt) and owned it for a year. The transmission grinded into gear from the factory, had three different hidden rattles, and the engine started sporadically ticking (Google "the mustang tick", it's a thing) so it was time to go. I wanted something with non-prius tires and a track pack of sorts. The stock '15+ mustang performance packages didn't impress me as much as the camaro's 1LE package did, and here I am 3.5 still-happy years later.
  11. BUT BUT BUT MUH PAW OWNS ONE SO FROD IS AWSUM YER ALL WRONG I legit wanted to be a Ford fan but after my Mustang and F150 experiences I just can't. All cars suck to an extent but Ford quality is simply abysmal.
  12. Reading this makes me imagine people who dip their fries in mayonnaise, have an iphone, and dress sock-shoe-sock-shoe in the mornings. Not that any of that directly affects me, I just wouldn't want to be stuck in an elevator with them.
  13. I was in all the F150 groups when I had mine and was just listing off all the usual stuff that I saw over and over again.
  14. Get a 15+, preferably 16+ for the better touchscreen. 11-14's have rust issues, the rear windows tend to explode when you turn on the defroster, 4wd engagement motors tend to go bad and half-engage the front hubs giving you a horrible grinding noise, seat heaters and random electronics like to go bad early, the turbos were pretty laggy those years, 2011's specifically had intercooler issues with water vapor causing misfires, and the slip yoke on the drive shaft wasn't lubed from the factory so it'll eventually start sticking and cause a jolt when you gas it from a stop (the Raptors' were nickel-plated, making them slicker). Other than random shit like that they are fun trucks to drive but the newer models in 2015 were so much better.
  15. he's done with (not showing up to) street racing
  16. I removed my rear one and it looks a lot cleaner imo.
  17. I used plastidip on my front bowtie and it's held up okay for 2-3 years, but probably needs hit again. Can't justify paying $150 for a black one online.
  18. Old thread was getting buggy and double-posting. I got my AFM disabler for the truck today, popped it in the OBD port, and took a quick spin around town. I got tired of the exhaust sounding like shit while cruising as well as lurching a bit when switching from 4 to 8.. now it doesn't do that.
  19. Good on ya for at least buying some sort of funcar in your budget and rolling with the punches.
  20. Your typical one, yep. Mine, nope. See you out there.
