daily driver thread.

^^^ darkwriter it doesn't matter what it looks like, so ya it's worthy of a look. the point of the thread was to showcase or share the other rides we have.

speaking of which we have some nice ones so far :nice:. Hey FrankenStang do the four conversion, that would be an awsome project!!

A manual explorer, those are pretty rare. I have only seen one and that was a state vehicle.



Thanks, I love my 06. It has the V8 which gets about the same mpg as the V6, neither of which is any good right now :rolleyes:, but teh wife won't get rid of it. The fusion is really nice ride though, i test drove one and liked it alot but I got a drop dead good deal on the taurus for my daily. she is a sweet looking ride and I like the color :nice:.


Thanks, I had the 4.6 aswell. Looking at the sticker and the same gas mileage listing i figured it was worth the extra cost, plus it had the 6 speed and it did well towing. Driving 48 miles one way to work adds up right now though.
 
My 2003 GT is my DD

Although if anyone ever buys it, i'll be pickup up a loaded 2006 Infinity G35X as soon as I can.

Hey Mike, looking for one of these bad boys. Hands down one of my favorites even though motor trend & car & driver pick the 3 series in test with the g35, the g's numbers are always damn close or better.to me for $$ the G is my pick. I'm suprised no one has scoped up the stang, she is a very clean example!!

It'll be getting a Capri front end as soon as I can find one. :(
Maybe Frankenstang could post up a couple o' pics for me, since she's at home on my computer...? :shrug:
I'm on it!!
post them darn things up :D.
See above
I wouldn't mind putting my wipers on HER headlights... :D
Me too. :drool:
i want pictures of stinky. nikwoac you too.
Again, see above. :D

brb...
 
Thanks. :nice:

Still trying to decide if I wanna simply give Stinky a fresh coat of (Rustoleum) white paint, or if I want to go through the hassle of switching it over to black. It'd look WAY better in black, but I'd have to paint the interior panels and such to match, and unless I strip it all down or prime the whole thing, every nick/scratch is going to show white underneath. :shrug:

Only drove the 'vert to work today for the first time in I dunno how long, and right away I was not only missing the luxury of A/C and a radio (even though Stinky's only rocking a tape deck with 10-year-old speakers), but I went through almost a quarter-tank of gas in the 'vert going ONE WAY to work! :eek:

Stinky's 26 MPG and 20-gallon fuel tank FTW. :nice:
 
2000 Exploder...i like it. its nice. but i miss having something fun to drive.

I just snapped pics of my beast, bought it for 900 bucks, put a clutch in it and just put a new exhaust on it. Its a great car and relatively quick too. I ran 15.4 @ 92 with her. I think I can squeeze high 14's out of her but the clutch is weak as hell and I dont want to break the differential like they like to do in these cars. I'm probably going to paint the roof and top of the trunk lid semi gloss black to go with the hood to cover up the hideous delamed paint and make it look a little better
