I removed and reinstalled the stripes on my wing last night. I was never happy with where the seam ended up, so redo!

Went to the track one last time before I put the new manifold, fuel injectors, and flex fuel tune on. I ran back to back 12.8s @ 112-113 which only tied my personal best, so I was initially disappointed until I found out the DA was over 2200. The Drag Times DA calculator corrected that to 12.46 @ 116. I don't know how much stock people put in those but I'd be very happy with that if it's accurate.

Rotate tires, polish wheels, clean undercarriage, record tread depth, touch up caliper paint. Only 3k mi., but I'm getting ready for a long road trip.
BTW, I found out the tire pressure monitors are self relearning.
Roadmaster with impala wheels?? More pics please...

Congrats on the '19.

Why is Ford buying back the '18?
Excessive piston slap and damage to cylinders. Probably misformed cylinders. November 2017 build which has been a problematic month. They had two repair attempts and car has been in the shop almost a month. I asked Ford CSR manager to do a lemon law review and she approved it.

Drove it. Already have 1600 miles on it in 2 weeks. I like to put some miles on a new car to make sure everything is good. No dropped valve yet (November Build). I am looking to move close to work which means I will be going from 100 miles a day commute to maybe around 12 miles a day if I go with the area i've look into a few places which also means I am most likely just going to commute my Mustang at that point.

Picked up some Bling...

I had a layover in Detroit and found this miniature version of my car encased in Carbonite and made into a key chain :)

I popped my Steeda Spring and Perch in and will be heading out to a movie in just a bit to verify/validate how it feels. After I get back, I need to decide if I have enough time to get my car up on jacks and the Blowfish Racing shift bracket installed before this evening.

Edit: well the change is definitely noticeable. Basically the end of the “spring” doesn’t have the sponge feel at the top end and has more pressure.
