Sure enough, my parents took my truck to Tennesse this weekend and when they came back the DIC said 17.7. They drove at 75mph there and back. I never thought it would see over 15.5.

x2 on the Blue color. But how in the hell do you get 17 out of it? Did it have some kind of tune or serious weight reduct.

I have an 03 SS AWD. Right now im getting 14.8 mpg avg. according to the DIC, being about 0* around here doesnt help much but during the summer I saw 15-15.1 avg. driving on the highway. In the city Im getting about 13. The first and only time ive taken my truck to the track it ran a 15.47 @ 86 mph, that was with a full tank of gas, completely stock, and hot and humid out. If you live in an area that gets a lot of snow the AWD is very nice, otherwise if you like to do huge burnouts and what not, the RWD might be more fun. This all just my 2 cents, hope it helps.

Dont post around here much but stumbled upon this thread. Here's mine next to my brothers newly redone dually. Just the front. And a motion shot.

The tail lights will fit an 03 right and are they still for sale? Do you accept Paypal? Sorry for all the questions but im interested in them.

Are you going to mod it and what not when you get it, or leave it stock? If your going to leave it stock go with an 02-04, but if you're going to mod it find a cheap 01, and go that route. All i can really say is go out and test drive a C5 Z06, and then test drive a basic C6, even one with the Z51 package. There's no way to really describe the difference between the two. Stock for stock the C5 Z will out run the C6 by just a little bit. My dad had a C6 with the Z51 and he didnt like it very much because it was just too "nice" he felt like he was driving a Cadillac, but when he drives the C5 Z he absolutely loves it. Just because of the sound, the ride, the handling, and the power. If you lived around here i would take you for a ride and show you just how nasty of a bitch it can be.

32 seems a bit high. My dad paid 32 for the one i drive now. It was an 02 so it had the 405HP (385 ft/lbs) deal and had 19000 miles. The 01's have 385HP (365 ft/lbs i think). But if you're going to mod it anyway it wont make a difference. The only thing is that quite a few 01's had an oil burning issue. As for a DD, hell yeah, as long as you dont have to drive it in the snow. Otherwise ill have to come hit you upside the head with a 2X4. Or unless you dont like driving a manual everyday. Which sometimes bothers me when im sitting in traffic or i just want to drive the car normal. But test drive it and see what you think, my guess is you will not want to get out.

I'm not a grown man yet, so i dont count.
-
Nevermind just placed my order.
-
Hell yeah man, ill take one. What do i do, just checkout on their site?
-
Good find. I'm gonna try to order some up in the next couple days.
-
Damn those look good, i need to get some of these but in blue. Has anyone had their headrests color matched, cause id like to do that too if its not too expensive.

Mods will hopefully be coming either this winter or next spring. Volant CAI, and a Magnaflow cat-back for now. I might think of adding a higher stall TC, but then ill probably want to add a shift kit and tranny cooler and then get a tune and then headers. Appearance mods will be coming shortly too, 2/2 drop and probably add 22"s or 24"s for show, and possilby a cowl induction hood, darker tint, some kind of sweet stereo system. I need to stop typing now before i get into trouble or come up with any more ideas, like HID headlights, oh god make it stop. My ultimate plans are either swap a LSx into it or go F/I. But thats many many years down the road, have to get through college first.

What do you mean, you people!!!!! Theres a red SS in Panama City too, its my brothers friend, i think his name is Josh. All i know for sure is he has a CAI and exhaust. He's also in the Air Force so there might be a military tag on it somewhere. As for vette owners being dicks, yeah most are but there are some really cool ones out there. Im always lookin for a good race but no one ever wants to come out and play. Mustang Boss's, GT's, riced out EVO's, other vettes, camaros, etc.

Thats actually harder than it sounds. The wiper cowl, windsheild and firewall all get in the way. I know of one guy that is currently doing this though and it actually runs. Anyway enough with the non-important info. If it was a older auto mustang those trannys were slushboxes. I dont know if Ford got smart and actually did something about them or not in the newer ones.
