Now if only Spring would arrive.

I have actually owned 2 Chevy's in my life. When I was 16 and buying my first car I owned an 82 Camaro (in 1988), but since I was only 16 my mom had to put the car in her name, and she refused to let me get a 5 liter at that time (even though I paid for the car), she was onboard with the Camaro because it was a V6. My grandfather worked for Ford for 34 years, and told me I had to park the Chevy on the street, he didn't want people who knew him to get the wrong ideaOrange Mustang convertible, orange Mustang GT, blue Escape (2017-2019ish), blue 2021 F150 towing...
Let me guess. Your favorite colors are green and black and you are a huge Chevy guy?
Sounds like a pretty cool car history!I have actually owned 2 Chevy's in my life.

The only other Chevy I owned was like a 1987 Cavalier, and that was my winter beater when I had my 94GT. The Twister Orange caught my eye when I was looking at ordering my car last year, and when we picked it up, my wife fell in love with the color, and ordered her convertible in it.
My favorite color is actually Kona Blue, I had a 2012 GT in that color. The red strip on that car I added because my previous GT was Red Candy, and was a bit of a tribute to that car.
Canton here...was just down near Dayton last weekend...my GT is at Lebanon Ford getting its work done.Sounds like a pretty cool car history!
Just noticed you're from Ohio. Hello from Dayton.
That's a hike for you, why that far? They are about 20min south from me on US42 (I live just off of US42), but mine go-to has been Germain Ford of Beavercreek, but am debating trying Lebanon. Do they have a really skilled Mustang crew or somethin there?
They were well worth the drive; Montrose Ford near me is also a Roush dealer, and their quote was $10,400+tax for the Phase 2 install, Lebanon was $8995+ tax. I also have a good fiend who lives in Cincy, so between the trailer cost of $130 and a tank of gas, it was well worth the savings, plus got to get some Skyline Chili while I was there
As far as skilled Mustang crew, I think they do, they are an RTR and Roush dealer, and build a ton of the Roush charged cars onsite. Their website has a whole section on Mustang upgrades they offer. https://www.lebanonfordperformance.com/lfp-common-upgrades-mustang/
Where did you get the steering wheel from? That's the style I have been searching for.Installed my new steering wheel after it sitting in a box for a month:
Also changed the oil at 6,000 km since last time. This time I took out the whole Ronin plug, including the part you're not supposed to take out every time, to see how the magnetic tip looked. This was my fourth oil change after I installed the plug and the tip was coated with a very light layer of metal powder.
Quoting my own post, but have a dilemma here.Got an alignment done and welp, I think I discovered why one of my summer tires was that badly worn up front (I think it was actually the front right) after I got my alignment results back. 32k miles on the car too...
I'd say the tech didn't torque everything down after getting the numbers in the green the first time around.Quoting my own post, but have a dilemma here.
Had Grismer do alignment on Dec 31, 2021.
The car is on winters, but it feels "loose" in the back, as if the rear takes time to follow. Perhaps skinnier tires than stock have effect, or when it was too warm for the winters (50F), but does this in cold too.
Went in for alignment check - this is the result what, 6 weeks later? I avoid potholes like the plague, what is going on here, what gives, anyone know?
It's from the company mentioned in this thread, which also has many other pictures: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/guardiandesigns-custom-steering-wheel-review.166095/
