I'm Back!!!

After a bit more than 2 years I have returned. Sold my 05TL 6MT/Nav for a 2007 Grand Cherokee SRT8 in Sept of 07. In July of 09 I sold that for a 2003 Cobra Convertible with 8K miles on it and just picked up an 04 TL 6MT/Nav for my DD.

It's got 110K on it, but one owner, maintained at the acura dealership and I got it for a steal!

Good to be back in the TL, I really did miss that car a lot!

Not planning on much with this one as it will be my daily. Rear sway bar, short shifter, and a few small things but thats about it.

Is comptech still around? Thats what I had for the RSB and shifter on my 05....

Comptech is now CT engineering...still the best call for the short shifter, on the rear sway bar go with Progress, it's thicker and has two stiffness options (and IFIRC it's about the same price)...oh, and nice to have you back

Thats right, I did have the Progress RSB! Who sells that on here? I think I bought it from Excelerate if he's still around!

Nice, I see you upgraded! I was looking at a '10 SH-AWD Tech 6-speed but more money than I wanted to spend. This was a cheap medium for now. If business goes well, I will upgrade in a year or two maybe a nice used 10 with good miles....

Ah I remember when you left! I was in 8th grade and used to read this site religiously in hopes of one day having a 3G TL and I now do.

Great to see you back.

Haha, thanks guys! I've never been married, so you might have me confused for someone else, but I did have a hot chick in an SRT8 Grand Cherokee destroy me which is when I started looking for the Jeep.

Good to be back here and back in a TL. it's like it was just yesterday! The only thing I gotta get used to again is that damn torque steer!
