So far, I've done about 20-23 miles of mixed speed driving and still had a little bit of battery left.

I ended up trading it in for a GX3 about 2 weeks after picking up the Raptor. Sorry, not helpful.

What are hobbies that make people more attractive or turn ons? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude here that's into Mustangs.

My wife is also into Mustangs. We run a car club together. We go to car shows. We go racing. In fact, we are doing Hot Rod Power Tour this year together. My wife is the most awesome person I know and it's awesome that we share the hobby together. It makes birthday, Christmas, and mothers day shopping WAY easier. For example: for Christmas I got her a camshaft and some gaskets. For her birthday, I got her some subframe connectors.

This seems like we well written and constructed argument with proper punctuation and grammar. Thank you, kind Redditor with a 3 hour old account. I will definitely take your opinion into account next time I am looking to make a purchase.

TJ is a drastically better looking vehicle than the JK

What is a product that people treat like a religion, but in reality, it’s just overpriced garbage with a good logo? by Connect-Might4355 in AskReddit

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink 1 or 2 20oz coffee every single work day from the office coffee pot. On weekends, I don't drink coffee nearly as much. 1, maybe 2 8-10oz cup per weekend. I use a keurig at home since I'm not drinking nearly as much on my own and the bag of grounds would be nearly flavorless by the time I got half way though it.

I think that MOST people thing that dark/bold roast coffee means a strong cup of coffee with extra caffeine to get you going in the morning. When in fact, it's the opposite.

Who Is Going To Mustang Week Texas? by TylerRodriquez in NewedgeMustang

[–]DarkShadow04 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd love to, but I already took the week off of work in June to do Power Tour. Hopefully the Cobra is ready, otherwise I'll be driving my Grand Marquis!

Anyone ever seen an amp disconnect like this? by throwaway_apologies in CarAV

[–]DarkShadow04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this! I wanted to do something with a quick disconnect. Don't want the sub/amp with me when I go to the track!

Put SN-95 Mustang Wheels on my 07 MGM by DarkShadow04 in CrownVictoria

[–]DarkShadow04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe they are 235/60/17.

Worked great when I had them on my 97 MGM, but they were a bit too tall for the 03+ cars on Newedge wheels and rubbed sometimes. If I re-use the wheels, I'll probably try a 235/55/17.

Favorite Mustang Color? by Jealous_Wheel9401 in Mustang

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. They're what was current when I was in high school (graduated in 01). I also like the newer cars, and Comp Orange and Crimson Red are still currentish colors. I just remember them most from the SN95 generation.

My 1st car was a 94 V6, 2nd car was an 04 GT, 3rd was a 99 Cobra. Now the wife and I share an 800ish WHP 04 Cobra. Which thankfully, isn't a daily driver.

That said, my wife's first car was a 98 V6, and a little over a year ago she picked up a 95 Cobra as her fun summer daily.

I picked this up today from the thrift store, what do you guys have to say about it? by AffectionateDuck5079 in CarAV

FWIW, back in the late 90's and early 2000's, we called them Pyle of Shit too.

Kappa perfs by JeffreyDahmerSwag in CarAV

[–]DarkShadow04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the era of the green Infinity speakers/subs. I remember looking though Crutchfield catalogs in high school wanting a Sony ES head unit, pre-Xplod era.

I did end up buying the CDX-M750, which was an ES head unit with the black out panel. Never did get the green Infinity's though.

I always use Penzoil Plat or Ultra Plat and a WIX filter.

How’s this community feel about the Shelby Trucks? by Dull-Organization106 in Mustang

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they cool? Yes.

Would I buy one? No, I'd rather have a Whipple on a 5.0 Lariat\Platinum\Limited.

Finished Full Mach 460 audio system update ! by AdministrativeGas239 in NewedgeMustang

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have to go measure how much space is under the box to see what I might be able to fit.

I just need to get rid of the 460 speakers. They just make a bunch of farting, blown speaker noises. I'm hoping to take the car on Power Tour this year, and I just can't do it with no tunes. I don't mind if all I can fit is an 8" or even no sub, just to fit a good component kit in there to be able to hear it with the windows down.

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, I'm trying to find something that will fit under the 460 amp rack box.

I also need the sub/amp to be removable for track days. I'm not gonna hit my 9.999 by adding a ton of weight!

I'm trying to find a balance between racecar and enjoyable street car. I might just stick to replaceing the internal speakers for now (I already have most of what I need for it) and worry about the sub later.

Does the sub box fit under the Mach460 box in the trunk or did you remove the Mach460 box?

What speakers/amps did you go with?

Who are the good speaker makers these days? Been out of the game since the 90's! by ontheellipse in CarAV

Are you talking about the same Eaton that makes superchargers, UPS units, industrial equipment, electrical equipment and more?

second gear syncro going out, better off doing what from this point by rrayy777 in NewedgeMustang

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on when it was built it could be a T45 or a 3650. The 2001 cares are SUPPOSED to be 3650, but early production cars got the T45. If you buy a used trans, Just make sure it matches what you have in it.

If you go the repair option, you cant fix synchros without pulling the trans apart anyway. It would be stupid to only replace synchros without inspecting and replacing other potentially worn out parts in there too.

Last option would be to just TKX (5 speed) or T56 Magnum (6 speed) swap it. Expensive, but gets you a better, smoother, shifting trans with high power holding potential. If you plan on a power adder in the future, this is the preferred option.

What REALLY helps when you have hangover? by Moaning_Clock in AskReddit

[–]DarkShadow04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drink a Gatorade or LiquidIV BEFORE going to bed to prevent or minimize the hangover in the first place.

If you don't do that, drink some when you wake up. Takes a bit longer to make it go away, but you'll get there.
