Agreed - Mine does (relatively) heavy hauling a few times a year (home projects / cleanup), but spends most of it's life hauling around lighter weight but bulky equipment/supplies to support the FIRST robotics team I teach. My bed is full ~7 months a year.

Getting a bit of a theme going!

any idea what the changes are? The updates can be a pain so just looking to see if it is worth it.

I have a bad habit of shifting to a higher gear too early when just cruising around - this usually lead me to be in 6th at 30 to 35mph around town (and then downshifting whenever I hit a significant hill or needed to accelerate). I am better about that in the GT350 if only because the exhaust...

I haven't tried that one yet, but I have been really likely the Meguires Hybrid ceramic - works great and very easy to apply!

Wow - this is something where NY is actually very reasonable! Vehicle reg is based on weight but ~$65 every 2 years and the only tax is sale tax at purchase. There are nominal fees for title and plates, but also only at purchase. I didn't realize that other states had it so bad! We do have...

"Willow" - from The Buffy the vampire slayer TV show. She was a computer nerd (lots of electronic goodies in the car) who was very powerful in magic (Voodoo engine). My truck (2016 F150 SCREW) is named "Jean" after her color (Bluejeans) Wife's car (2019 Mini Cooper Countryman S) is named...

I think there will be, it will just look very different. There is a lot of potential flexibility in battery and motor controllers that could be tweaked for different performance outcomes. At a very basic level the trade space looks like (higher voltage = more power + more heat = reduced life)...

Even a Voodoo or Predator?

I get it, but I was actually averaging ~21mpg on the highway with it installed. Still - it is all about smiles per gallon, not miles per gallon

Not a Mach 1, but I just recently decided to install the gurney flap on my 2019 GT350 and saw no real measurable decrease in mpg at highway speeds (maybe 0.1 or 0.2)

Always wanted to go to this, but ~1,200 miles is a heck of a drive for a weekend trip. Maybe sometime in the future when the kids are out of the house.....

April 17th is also my wedding anniversary so no real car only events. The Wife are I are headed out for a "Date Day" however and definitely taking the Shelby!

All of the P-zero tires I have had have been all around not great tires (not great traction, poor life, etc.). In my experience Michelins tend to provide what is advertised. I have only had the A/S3+ tires on my GT350 for ~700 miles so I can't talk to wear. I did have Michelin PSS tires on my...

Second this - or A/S3+

I think a lot of this depends on the type of oil. Synthetic you should be good to go. If you are using regular oil, I would recommend a change soon as that breaks down much faster. In either case the filter is fine.

Finally got her out of storage after the winter

I don't think this does what a lot of people seem to think it does. This act (if signed into law) would only protect vehicles solely used for on track racing. It does not apply to on road (licensed / registered vehicles). I think protecting autosports is a great thing, but I haven't seen...

That is really what I am doing, I just explained it poorly. That said - for around town driving, I am never down shifting in a corner - this is usually on a straight away (slowing down for an off ramp, or coming up to a stop light. After shifting I am typically just coasting in the lower gear...
