    Yeah, just so long as I don't need a running Maverick.

    I'm always up for pizza!

    I just finished the wiring last night Gene. Now it is tuning time. But I have to be honest, the wiring was a piece of cake compared to figuring out this program for tuning.

    Oh I still have to install the intercooler too. I'll probably have to do some metalwork to get it to fit.

    My fleet is no longer All Ford. Back in November the wife was getting annoyed with the crampedness and uncomfortable seat of our 2011 Mustang. After some test driving and research we couldnt get antother new Ford that we liked. Ended up getting a 2014 Kia Optima SX Turbo with premium package. Let the bashing begin. But be warned it has 274hp and is faster then the 305hp v6 mustang we traded. Has plenty of room, comfy as ****, and fun to drive. Still feels weird saying we have a Kia.

    I would love to bash the Kia, but we had one as a rental last year and I was very impressed. My only complaint with the one we had was the air conditioner. It didn't seem to cool nearly as quickly as our Honda. Maybe it was just a bad one. Anyhow, congrats on everyone's new cars! I wish I had one. I sold my truck last year and it still hasn't been replaced. I have been classified as not needing a car by the wife.

    Hey guys,
    Just pick a date and a place, don't be shy. In my experience if you try to make everyone happy, we won't have a spring get together. Like Nike says, Just Do It. Or to quote field of dreams...build it and they will come...
