This is a 2001 Ford Lightning w/ just over 69k miles (7k on the engine combo). Tough to let her go since I'm only the second owner (and have owned her since July 2003), but with three kids, we've got to get a bigger home. See below for more details
Lets get the bad out of the way:
Needs a dyno...
Ok, so I never thought I'd be the one asking for "votes" (especially via facebook).... but it's for a "frozen" themed birthday party for my 2 year old daughter (her 3rd birthday is Nov 15th). To make this car related, she LOVES riding in my Lightning and her favorite saying is "GO FORD" when...
I'm looking for a better laptop. I've bought "budget" laptops the last 4-5 years and I'm getting sick of their inability to multitask with any sort of consistency. Basically I need something that won't freeze when burning blu-rays, converting 20gb mkv, and transferring them to my synology NAS...
I've been really considering a home media server for all of my movies, music, and family videos. I have a really old Sony computer in the attic that might be perfect for it, but I'm not sure how to begin. I would definitely like to have a lot of storage (5+ TB?) in some sort of redundant system...

Interesting. The president has already been called a racist and accused of being in the KKK. Haha figures. BTW.. the vice pres is black so I guess he's a racist too?.. Some people's kids.
Just placed an order from Kellen for new tires on my MB E55.. Matt/Kellen were quick to help and answer any questions. Don't hesitate to order through them! Thanks again.
While the L is down, i picked up a 2005 Mercedes E55 AMG.. 469hp/516tq.. car's pretty rediculous for a stock benz.. lots of fun.. here's a few pics..
Reason i posted is i want to see if someone can photochop the wheels to have em black with a silver/polished lip.. im kinda torn on...
Recently pulled from my 2001 Lightning.. never consumed any oil between oil changes.. Only Mobil 1 full synthetic has been used since i bought her in 2003 with 36,000 miles.. complete from pan to valve covers.. NOTE: There are 2 baffles glued to the top of the valve covers because i had a...
KB only has less than 6,000 miles on it.. if look at the pictures.. the timing marks are still visible on the edges of the rotors!!! It also comes with JLP Plenum, extra 3.2" upper pulley and pulley removal tool. I believe the pulley on it is a 2.7" non-slip. One catch.. the seal between the...
Why are they so cheap to pick up?! You can pick up a 2003-2004 for under $30,000.. a supercharged 469hp and mercedes luxurious amenities?! Does anyone know if they have any mechanical problems or recalls i should know about?
I'm thinkin for this price its hard to pass up.. I may have to get rid...
I have 2 fuel pumps for a SVT Focus. I got em in a package deal from a friend, but he didnt realize the connector was different for a Ford Lightning. I already have Walbro 255's in my truck. They have 5,000 miles on them. I bench checked them in my garage and both pumps work fine. Part #...
some jerk off ran a red light, almost t-boned me, so i swerved out of the way and hit the curb on the island on the other side of the intersection.. long story short 2 of my Boyd's are slightly bent now.. theres no tire pressure loss, but its still ugly.. anyone know where I can get them...
After a nice long tour im finally back.. looks like i'll be spending a SMALL (i say that now) chunk of the money i saved over there on the L.. Nitrous kit, a new valve body, and a some new stereo equipment (Kenwood DDX7017 and some component door speakers).. so i'd have to say the trip was worth...
