It’s not that paying cash is somehow illegal, it’s that people have been programmed that if what you’re doing isn’t tracked there’s an issue. As long as your bank is checking the cash, which they are, there shouldn’t be any issues on your side. It’s not unusual to see very large cash...

In simplest terms, haters hate.. Usually coincided by being financially challenged. And ironically it’s not defined by income level.

Bingo. For some the few bucks here and there simply doesn’t matter to them.

How about the class on how to make money to be able to make purchases like that? We all lose money on car purchases in one form or another. The other thing sooo many simply can’t comprehend is for some there time is worth more then the dollars spent.

Do they break it down by category to? We have family in Norman OK., the scale of what they deal with at times is nuts.

No you’re basically just pulling the driveshaft and rotating it 180 degrees and reinstalling it. There’s some pretty decent tutorials on youtube. Worst part without a lift is getting the car jacked up on all four corners. It’s pretty simple.

For whatever reason tranny techs have always been scarce, even when I had my shop years ago. Back around 2000-2005 a tranny tech at a franchised dealer(big three) was low hundreds. Was always surprised that more guys didn’t go that route as opposed to just the regular tech route. Ironically it’s...

You may try indexing the driveshaft. It’s not as common as it use to be on older vehicles but there are occassions it does help.

Really cool videos. I’m only mentioning this because you said no special mods. Have you changed the cv joint grease? One of the main reasons Ford limited the top speed where they did had to do with the lubricant used in the cv joints from the factory. My old fi’d 350 that I was doing what your...

I’ve never seen one of these with zero miles, actually I’ve never seen any car new with zero miles. Think they’re high to, but they’re probably not off by much with a little more time on the clock so to speak. Not sure I’d consider a handfull of cars a bunch though. For what it’s worth just did...

Cracks me up, most of those outlets around f1 are much the same as the national enquirer. It’s no secret about Wolf and Jos’s relationship. Russell sure does his best to come out on the short end of likeability for whatever reason. The cars are so bad f1 needs every distraction they can get though.

The added fee’s for $800 is hilarious.

62,500ish with there 5% buyer fee. The car looked like it was treated like a daly driver, which there’s nothing wrong with that. Seller did well. Pretty much msrp for a seven year old car. Says a lot about the desireability of the 350’s.

I am. To be fair it’s on a tender to.

If your finance’s are in order at your age, which it sounds like your solid, buy the car that speaks to you. I wouldn’t worry about the base over the R, the caveat there being if you realistically think you’ll keep the car very long term, then R all day long. They’re all low, even your Mach, so...
