From one enthusiast to another....have a little respect. I seem to remember you posting pictures of your son's mustang and repeatedly bashing the EcoBoost all over this website, so maybe you're the one that needs to "jump on over" to another forum! I like vehicles regardless of make and model. I just thought I would ask a fellow forum member for a few pictures that I and others may like to see.

My 2010 became a real problem in Ca, shipped it away to solve the problem. Not at the level of your build though. I work down the street from the shop in the pic, nice build and great car!

Thank you!! Looks like that’s piece of the puzzle may arrive Saturday night. Driveshaft... of course the 9” made my dss shaft 2.75” too short. 😭🙄
My fiancé works with mxa in NC. The shop the car is at now is New Era Performance in Agoura, CA

Today i drove the SS to the office and plan on cleaning it up tonight due to the green tint covering the car

This is true i did post a pic of his stang next to my SS. And the EcoBoost is a pile of crap. This is the perfect place to say that.

And...you are correct, i should have, and there is a section below for other vehicles.

And i am glad he enjoys his truck. But it is way over priced Ford junk - imo.

I seem to get three reactions with the truck, People love it, Are brand elitist's and hate it just because its a Ford, or are upset with me, for being able to afford it for some reason lol. Appreciate the interest!

I used to be very pro GM till about 10 years ago and realized almost every manufacturer makes a decent vehicle. I'd kill to have a Raptor. My daily is a 17' Fusion Sport with the 2.7L Ecoboost. Thing is a beast with AWD. I'm sure it could smoke my SS off the line but I'm not great at launching with RWD.

Also like your bowtie, Some think their stupid but I think it looks pretty cool at night. I have one on my Camaro but I never drive that car at night to notice it.

I did some cussing and yelling today. Changed the oil for the first time (600 miles). Drove up the ramps with no issue, oil pan drain plug took a little extra torque to get off. The cussing started when I realized that Hercules works at the Lansing plant and torqued the filter to 1000 ft lbs.

Put on the Jack pads while I had it up.

Just be thankful that you don’t have to do the transmission fluid change with the M6, on jack stands. There’s not a ton of room under there if you’re a decent sized guy..second go around should be easier though.

They don't put any oil on the filter gasket and that makes the gasket stick to the filter housing mount. Just be sure to put a coating of oil on the gasket before installing.

Yep, I destroyed mine getting the filter off the first time.

I must be in a 4th dimension...

I am not anywhere near a brand elitist
I can afford it
