The new daily...back to my roots
 
Picked this up over the weekend. It's nice to be able to leave the Mustang in the garage and not have to worry about anything happening to it.

I'm the third owner, truck has 143k (almost) miles on it, previously owned by my good buddy Patrick for the past 5 years. It's also nice to have a truck again and not have to worry about dog hair. Lol

A daily you don't care about is always nice to have. No worries about door dings, hail or some idiot on their cellphone hitting you.


LOL@ putting the truck in your sig though.

Congrats man! Hoping to pick up a daily/beater next year.

Ehh, I can't let my days from my truck forums die off completely. That was where this curse I call a hobby started. :D

That's the way to go. Trucks are great and I may sport mine in the sig too.

By not driving the Mustang so much, I will put little miles on it. However, those miles are very hard track miles...but still just 13K on the Mustang. Technically only 715 miles since the rebuild when I blew the piston.

LOL, damn. Mine is sitting at 11,2xx I think. I haven't driven it in over a month. It's just waiting for it's new owner.

That reminds me, I need to go out there and start both the Mustangs. I don't think the Mach has been started in a couple of months or so. haha.

Ouch. Do you drain the gas? Doesn't it lose it's octane rating after it has sat up for a while?

Nah. Strokd's cars sit for much longer extended periods of time and they are fine. Besides we arent talking about big horsepower cars here but rather lil bolt on cars.

Gas breaks down after 4-8 months.

Yeah. So needless to say keeping miles off my car make me happy. Plus drive an anemic 4 spd automatic truck around all the time will let me enjoy the car more when I take it out

We should race before i start modding this thing :)

DirtyD 04-14-2014 11:38 PM

I'll try to make it back up to Coit eventually
