Yeah, I hope so too.
Judging by the temps, it looks like it might just be a mix for us, but for those in the Worcester County and north/northwest, definitely more snow. (They can have it. LOL)
Hey we don’t want it either WTF 😂

First oil changes can be something of a disaster.

Femco, Ronin and UPR are three companies which make mess-free drain plugs. I went with UPR and have enjoyed having it.
Damn! Wish I had know about this. I just snagged a UPR for my next change. Thanks for the heads up.

I had most of the week off, so I took my time and had my 13- year-old son help install new pads and rotors all the way around. I also installed GT350 front and GT500 rear sway bars.

After my first run bedding the pads in, I still have some front pad rubbing noise, so I think another round of bedding is necessary.

While looking everything over I noticed that my x pipe has a cracked weld. Now I know where that exhaust leak sound was coming from… 😡
What brand x pipe do you have that cracked?

About 20 cars, mostly Mustangs. Drove to Norris Dam, TN, Devils Triangle, Bushy Mt Historic prison. Great day on the road with nice people and lunch. @skinnyb sponsored .

I absolutely love those pp2 wheels. I'm thinking about buying the replicas of these because they are not as wide. But I don't think the replicas are the exact same color as these though.

I high-sided some fresh roadkill this morning. Small deer? Coyote? Couldn't tell. It definitely hit stuff underneath but everything looked ok except I found this connector.

Car runs fine. All the lights work. No idea. I'll have to figure it out later because I'm leaving for an overseas work trip for a while.

Car is extra stanky when the exhaust gets hot though. Must have gotten some goo on it. Smells like burnt goat meat and hair lol

I know it sounds far-fetched but keep in mind it might not be from your car and was just out there. Could be from a previous smack on the roadkill.

It’s a SR Performance that the previous owner installed. I’m going to see if a local shop can repair it and maybe add a gusset or two to add some strength. I haven't been happy with the muffler alignment(x pipe is welded at the rear connection points), so this may give me an opportunity fix all of that in one trip.

Maiden voyage on my new snow tires. I have used Blizzaks on everything since they first became available but this time decided to give Continental Vikings a try…two thumbs up!

Your tach is telling me you're in track mode while driving in the snow. I guess the new shoes are good.

I’ll probably be due for new snow tires after this season. Good to hear on the Vikings. I currently have Blizzak and they’re great but I’m always game to try new things

Ford performance sells two mach 1 diffuser kits. Only difference is one includes the Mach 1 exhaust and the other does not.

But both include the diffuser, closeout panel, new bumper hangers I guess they are called and new exhaust hangers for the closeout panel to attach too.

Since I have the active exhaust on my GT, I decided to get the full kit but without the exhaust. I was going to get the aftermarket gt500 diffuser but I decided I wanted OEM and I wanted to make it functional with the OEM closeout panel and other parts.

I have the RTR front lip, side extensions and rear extensions. The rear extensions are made for the pp1 diffuser not this Mach 1 diffuser. So I modified them to work on this one so it matches the rest of my RTR kit.

I also tinted the reverse light and the 3rd brake light.

I should have took a better picture of the closeout panel but oh well. Also photo is edited to remove my license plate.
