    Borla or Magnaflow? Suggestions?

    I want to improve the inhaling and exhaling as well as enjoy that V8 "tone" that's currently suppressed by the OEM exhaust. That being said I want it to sound like a 5.0 Mustang but not so loud that its abusive and hard to have a conversation while on the highway. There's a significant price...

    BFG Rugged Terrain TA

    BF Goodrich Just replaced the Duelers with the same sneakers. Suprised how quiet they are given the aggressive tread pattern. Handling is improved and yes they do look nasty compared to OEM...lets hope they last as long

    When Does a V8 Sport's Suspension need attention?

    Just turned 63K, put on a new set of tires, 100% on-road only-when should the shocks get replaced and what would you suggest as an upgrade to improve overall handling? Thanks Wayne

    Unfortunately yes. You should be able to reach the valve without dropping the tire. i find the pressure idiot light a real pain in the ass.

    Handgun holster mod in a 4R?

    VA, Appreciate your feedback. It's a hot topic and I'll always wonder why some folks feel like they have to carry a piece everytime they go somewhere. When I worked in CT (where I had a CCP) I would pack a Walther PPK since Hartford had some seedy areas where the restaurants were located. I did...

    Handgun holster mod in a 4R?

    There have been bills proposed within some states proposing a review of the age criteria. Frankly I don't see a big difference between a 21 year old or an 18 year old packing especially after a few beers etc... If folks are OK with 21 year olds walking around with concealed heat I'm not going...

    Handgun holster mod in a 4R?

    M1911, No debate on whether someone with a CCP should engage in a gunfight when his or her loved ones aren't involved. My point was putting pistols in the hands of 18 year olds and expecting them to make good decisions. Ive been in law enforcement and have had people shooting at me while serving...

    Handgun holster mod in a 4R?

    This is going to go the route of an oil thread. You're in Texas and I can appreciate your opinion. As you so clearly indicated I'm not an anti-gun proponent nor do I have any statistical data to support my opinions but please keep guns away from 18 year olds and alcohol. Last gun show I...

    Handgun holster mod in a 4R?

    An Example OK, lets assume for a second you're in a crowded shopping mall. At that mall 3 guys rob a jewelry store using a .357 and .380. Someone with a CCP sees what he thinks are bad guys and pulls out his piece and tells the bad guys to freeze. One of the bad guys starts firing his pistol at...

    Handgun holster mod in a 4R?

    I have four handguns and a 18.5" 12 gauge pump. The point is I'm not anti gun but with all due respect where do you folks live that you feel it's necessary to be packing 24/7? When we start permitting 18 year olds to carry in bars, restaurants as well as college it's time to get beyond this...

    What's your mileage and age?

    She's Been Tortured by has been problem free. I did the worst or one of the worst commutes in America for 14 months. Northern NJ to Mineola LI. George Washington Bridge, Throggs Neck Bridge, Cross Bronx Expressway, Cross Island, Northern State and then another 9 miles (ten traffic lights)...

    Synthetic Motor Oil for 4.7 V8?

    Synthetic Walmart sells either Penzoil or Castrol 5W30 Syn for $5 a quart. I go 5000 between changes and have a horrible commute everyday in stop and go. Why risk the alternative at that price?

    2004 Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    tire pressure light When it gets cold it tends to be more sensitive to minor pressure differences.. Typically goes off after 10 miles on the highway. One other time it came on and stayed on and the next day I had a blow out on the highway. I hate the damn thing it makes me paranoid when it...

    Proud of my 4-th gen

    Ditto..although they made improvements, the interior looks a bit better the no V8 option sucks. My 06 Sport looks as good as it did the day I bought it and just turned 30k miles. It's paid for and I agree, the 5th gen doesn't deliver any substantive reason to get a new payment book
