In the meantime, they put me in a 2LT RS loaner. It's enjoyable, but it's definitely no SS.


Damn that sucks. Sorry to hear that. Keep us posted.

Also the exterior colors of the Hot Wheels don't match any colors on the F1FTY.

I keep hearing this strange noise.

Oh yeah, it’s the sound of my wallet screaming.



Thank you Adam and Atom!

50th anniversary zippo

Hello all,
Wondering if you all are aware that Zippo has a 50th numbered anniversary lighter. Well numbered up to 2500. #332, 335, 338, 437, 631, 1022 and 1012 are on ebay as of 10/28/17. I have #744 and 970 in my possession . I'm in search of #198 to match my production number.

Spending that kind of time with the service department really sucks! Hope you get those issues resolved soon. In the meantime, the door ding can be easily fixed most of the time by using a qualified paintless dent removal company, locate one now so when you get your car back you can have it removed. Good Luck!

Sprayed out under hood to clean up any residual coolant that may have been lingering around but haven't driven her since. Winter has decided to arrive rather suddenly.
Hi Ric,
the smell comes from the residue of the coolant which was not properly wiped away and or from the mechanics hands when he touched parts whith he coolant dripping hands which heats up later when in use.
Don’t worry about it.

That's what I'm hoping as well. Thanks.
