  1. Definitely hard mount it near the mirror.I do mostly highway and rural driving.I have 3 kids of my own so I am slooow in the neighborhoods and city.
  2. I learned my lesson back in the 80's with the origanal Escort not to rely on detectors 100%.My car had the SRX in it when I bought it.I actually sold it brand new to the guy I bought the car from.I would never pay $1000.00 plus for a radar detector.
  3. Jammers are illegal but "shifters" aren't.I have a Passport SRX so far so good.I have had it about a year and hasn't missed one yet!Knock on wood.
  4. Congrats.My 3rd was unexpected,5 years after my second.I got snipped on Tuesday and was at Kil Kare on Thursday.I kept telling my kids we were having peas for dinner!
  5. The one problem I have is it's UGLY!!
  6. Sales Mgr at Hatfield Hyundai was/is Tim Tweed.I haven't dealt with him for about 1.5 years but I imagine he's still there.
  7. http://www.poca.com/ .Worth a shot.
  8. Shoot me an e mail reminder and I will check with the Techs that know the cars inside and out.I will also give you good prices on factory parts. kcourtright@magcars.com
  9. "Both hit 60 mph in 4.4 seconds, but the Mustang is faster to the quarter mile by a tenth of a second and 0.7 mph-12.7 seconds at 111.6 mph. It also stops two feet shorter from 60 mph-a tie as far as we're concerned-and the GT really shatters the M myth on the skidpad. America's original ponycar manages to outgrip one of Germany's most iconic sports cars to the tune 0.2 second through our figure eight and by 0.01 g in lateral acceleration." Give me the Mustang and the $20k+ in my pocket for modifications!
  10. Used to see a 4X4 Pinto and Chevette running aroung the westside.Theres a 4X4 94 Z28 in London.
  11. I was told they take the install cost divided by number of houses in the neighborhood and that's what you pay for install.Then the electric bill works same way.
  12. I would say Honda ,Toyota,Lexus and Acura are equal.I have an LS400 DD thats over the 257k mark an 85 4runner with 306k a new head as the previous owner didn't do the t-chain when he should have.My Dad has an LS400 with 347k that's still going strong.Do the maintenance and they will run a long time.My Dad plans on taking his LS400 to 500k.
  13. I thought you bought Jags in pairs.That way you'd have one running at all times.JK!
  14. An older Gentleman came in my work last week and said he had been married for 57 years.He asked me if I knew the secret to staying married that long.I said no and he said on his 25th Wedding Anniversary he took his Wife to Hawaii.I said nice.He said on his 50th Wedding Anniversary he went back and picked her up!
  15. Corvette C5 Convertible 2002 Base Price $48,205 Corvette C6 Convertible 2011 Base Price $53,600 Not to argue just posting some facts.I am not a Corvette Cvt guy at all so that's not even an option for me.It's all in what YOU want.I'm old enought to remember in 1982 with the 157 hp 2 barrel Mustang GT came out and they said "The Boss is back".
  16. A "throwback" car I'd love to own.
  17. This one just sold on E bay.I would buy one in a heartbeat! http://custombiodiesels.com/
  18. I would say it's definitely worth more parted out.I'm thinking $5k to $7k but haven't seen pics.
  19. I would say retard by looking at those stacks!jk. My Brother -In-Law has a truck just like it,loves it.Last F350 Diesel he had he drove to 460k and it was clutch time so he traded it in on this one.They are always 4x4 and he always tows with them.
  20. I think he put an extra 9 on the asking price!Should be $499
  21. I know a guy that is on his second one.The first one burned to the ground from a short in the wiring.He bought another one with a suspension bag blown and continues to work on it at least once a week for something that has went wrong.I do like the looks of themwith a snorkle and Old Man Emu Lift plus they are very capable off road.They have a group that goes to The Wilds and other places frequently.
  22. I had a guy in my neighborhood have his Wrangler stolen out of his garage.(He left the door up).They found it by the railroad tracks near Darby Creek stuck and burned!I hate people.
  23. BJ40.Nice I've been thinking about getting one of those for years.
