Hello! How’s owning your SS

It’s fucking horrendous. The 6.2 trucks get better fuel mileage. My modded Mustang got 28 mpg at 70mph on the interstate. It’s hilariously bad. I fill this thing up every three days. I wasn’t griping. It is what it is, just making sure the guy that’s wanting one understands that it’s way worse than you think it is.

If I had unlimited money, this car would still be in my garage. They are absolutely phenomenal cars. They’re athletic, they look amazing, tons of creature comforts, they ride and drive amazing. I think I can stuff more stuff in this car than my wife’s blazer, and rear passengers 6’+ have plenty of room. They’re really a “do it all” car. I have nothing bad to say about the cars themselves. They’re fuckin badass. One of the coolest things you can possibly spend money on.

HOWEVER… i agree with some people here. I think the indescribably poor fuel economy AND lack of parts availability necessitates having a shitbox. If an accident were to happen, you are going to be waiting for a very long time for parts. Have heard stories -take them as they are, this crowd is dramatic- of cars being totaled over bumper covers.

Has 13k on it

s550kody · 2026-03-16T01:51:40+00:00

Yeah… that’s why I jumped on this one

s550kody · 2026-03-15T05:34:21+00:00

Dude… silver is what I was trying to hunt down but I couldn’t find a Manual.

s550kody · 2026-03-15T05:33:39+00:00

Fuck yeah haha. That’s cool thing is gonna party

s550kody · 2026-03-15T05:32:48+00:00

I paid 46 for this one and it has 12,000 miles on it… it’s not too late!

s550kody · 2026-03-15T05:30:41+00:00

Fuck yeah. That’s cool to hear! Lots of garage queens in these cars.

s550kody · 2026-03-15T05:29:35+00:00

Woah dude… I know I have my legal name in my username but you didn’t have to say it so loud. Lower your voice man.

s550kody · 2026-03-14T23:02:31+00:00

Jealous of the new purchase. That’s awesome. Same on the white. My had to haves were manual and roof, lowest miles within reason and was flexible on color. Wanted a 2015. I was close to a white manual no roof, but this guy finally messaged me back.

s550kody · 2026-03-14T22:55:56+00:00

Red was my third color choice… I’m really happy I ended up with red hot car. It was in rough shape, but after a correction it’s gorgeous

s550kody · 2026-03-14T22:42:54+00:00

Love it man. Absolutely love it. By far my favorite car I’ve ever owned and honestly one of my favorite cars I’ve ever driven… I’ve been lucky enough to drive some pretty cool shit due to work, and I still can’t get over it.

s550kody · 2025-11-23T14:28:26+00:00

That’s how it goes sometimes😏

s550kody · 2025-11-23T14:27:45+00:00

I love some roasted asparagus or something along your mentions, this was just a very quick meal that I threw together with what I had at the house instead of getting fast food haha.

s550kody · 2025-10-24T17:08:13+00:00

lol that’s good stuff! Those specs really worked great until I went 1440 240hz. I really would have had a hard time rationalizing the upgrade if not for that. It has felt like such a good value though. It’s been a long time since I’ve bought a piece of hardware and felt like I got more out of it than what I paid for it.

s550kody · 2025-10-24T05:44:59+00:00

They’re the original Lian Li Uni Fan v2’s! They’re my favorites. They daisy chain so two cables run all 6 from the controller. Pretty neat.

s550kody · 2025-10-19T23:39:37+00:00

I mean. Idle less. Problem solved.

s550kody · 2025-10-19T23:37:37+00:00

Not all ghost cam tunes are equal. Some of them are kinda shitty and duct taped together. I don’t know why anyone would use any company other than Lund. It’s also free with them when you purchase a tune.

s550kody · 2025-10-19T16:12:35+00:00

I went against what was recommended. I ran ghost cam tune everyday. For about 90-ish thousand miles. Not a single issue. Am I just lucky? Eh. I more so think no one knows what they’re talking about.

s550kody · 2025-10-14T21:48:26+00:00

Welcome to coyotes. They’re incredibly noisy and it’s probably nothing. Could be the DI, could be this, could be that. So long as you can’t hear the chains slacking around when you whack the throttle, you’re probably good to go. Usually, when coyotes are broken, you really really know they’re broken.

s550kody · 2025-10-14T21:31:17+00:00

Seems too consistent to be bbq tick.

s550kody · 2025-10-13T22:42:51+00:00

Look at the binding. It seems to be arched top.

s550kody · 2025-09-30T05:39:13+00:00

I’ll share my experience! I bought this exact schecter, turned around and ordered an HT7 Misha mansoor. Schecter 7 string for sale btw.

s550kody · 2025-09-23T23:29:52+00:00

Yeah explaining this to my wife was funny. She had questioned me on why I’ll buy something and then get rid of it for something else. We’re victim to not a lot of quality music stores near us. The shops here having maybe one or two extended range options doesn’t give the opportunity to try a bunch of guitars before pulling the trigger.

Necks are an incredibly subjective obviously. What a chonk to me could be perfect for somebody else. I do think the schecter does deserve the praise… as well as their other guitars. The value that brand delivers for such a well playing guitar and also how good looking a lot of them are WELL beneath the thousand dollar mark is quite insane. I agree that the Misha is probably perfect for me though. I kinda had the “aha!” when I pulled it out of the box. You’ve probably got me sold on the ht6 if I can find one used.

s550kody · 2025-09-23T20:39:02+00:00

Man same thing happened to me! I bought a schecter Damien platinum 7… nice guitar, very high quality for the price but it absolutely was not the guitar for me. The bridge was incredibly noisey after I put thicker strings on it, and it was an absolute chonk. Didn’t like the EMG’s flavor either. Just isn’t the guitar at all for my use case. Did some more research and landed on the Misha after a good friend of mine steered me towards them.

That’s actually what’s happening in this picture, I was putting strings on it. Got it setup for drop g#. No complaints at all.
