Thumbs up

Thats what a supercharged, intercooled 5.4 ltr V-8 will do. Ford has got a heck of an engine on its hands, but why wont they put it in the cobra instead of a friggin pickup!

You win some, you lose some, then sometimes you get your a$$hole ripped out through your mouth. It sucks to lose to a truck.

Never poke a bear (that truck) with a short stick (your TL).

I know all that.

But the guy was every bit of 150 years old. I guess he was going through 3/4 life crisis. He doing 50 in the left lane on 95 south, I went around and he eased up on my left side as to not let me back in. I dropped to 3rd and Vtec in at top. I pulle to one door and I guess his charger let in because he was 1/4 down the highway before I could...sniff..., Sorry guys I get emotional. Anyway I have a appointment with my shrink in the morning. I have some pills I can take to shake the loneliness. But hey it's still a Forever On the Repair Docket.
