Definitely. I haven't gotten to drive it much yet but the Tremec shifter is so amazing. Love that transmission.
One of my favorite features of the car is that Tremec. Was 10 minutes from ordering one with a Roush engine from Backdraft racing before I realized I was poor with bad credit.

Exactly right. The EcoBoost is surprisingly quick. I don't have to go 10 seconds on the drag strip, 12's is plenty quick enough.
And on the road course I had no problem hanging with the GT and my friend's GT350 in the turns. Was quicker than my friend's GT coming out of the turn onto the straight - he had to give me a point by every session.

Comments like that make as much sense as saying, "You take a GT to the track? Should have a GT500 to do that"
Ecoboost is about 200 lbs. lighter in the front end too!

Did you keep the Nitto NT555G2 on the front?
Yeah, 285/35 on front. Replacing them early next year with PS4S. Strangely it seems to turn fine, but the rears just didn't hold.

Yeah, I've been up against the eco on I10. Um, walked the dogs. If you are giving them hell in an eco, props to you for driving.

I had to look at it for a minute ,could not tell what it was at first. Thought it was a road Apple..

That's pretty cool though .the buttons work good still?
Yes, yes, all good. Works nicely.

My new cueball auto shifter from AmericanMuscle came today. The manual shift trim (to make it look more like a stick shift since I hate the non-illuminated display) is still on backorder but I couldn't wait to install the shifter. I am very happy with it. It is not until you remove the stock one that you realize how cheaply made it is.

On the website and in videos it says 1/2 hour to an hour install. It took about 8 minutes.
