Well, here's an idea.

Maybe I can talk my office into letting me use one of the parking lots in front of the building. We could hang out in the parking lot and talk about how nice it would be to have a freakin' strip on the peninsula.

Screw it. I'll drive to Sac-town. When is the next one?

Haha.
Y'all scared the chick away & hijacked her post.
Bay area isn't far, but doesn't seem to have much of a following unless you go farther south.
Seems we always have at least a half dozen folks ready to gtg at any given time.
Problem is their 3rd gen ain't, heh.

In all actuality it was more about the big wigs and money, not the fact that it wasn't a kick a$$ car and an american icon or anything.

geeze someone wants to become a senior member pretty fast id rather get a 5.0 than a maro, easier to mod look okay not as good as a thirdgen but the easier to mode thing out weighs that. the only problem is that its a ford and they break down alot

Well thats why I used IMHO

Handling I know is much better on the GM side.

I have seen many 5.0's fishtail all over the gaddam place. One even wrecked in front of me before.
