The Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

A lot of Toyota's lately. Here's my father's day wash and one step with Menzerna 3 in 1, McKee's 37 tire dressing.

Started backing into the garage so I can open the door and see my favorite part first.

Did you ever get those "ASS MAN" number plates you were after.

While I do like the original alloys, these wheels and tires give it a better stance. The wheel offset has them sitting further out so the wider tires don't rub anywhere, and these tires grip so much better on the road as well.

I put them back on last Wednesday, but I've been working on them for a couple of months, the weather has been against me, too wet or too cold. I still haven't done the spare, and I may just leave it.

Testing out a stout suction cup base for a 360° camera.

It mounts very very strongly. Multiple pumps to get it super tight.

I probably would not stick this to my plastidip though. Probably will only use on glass.

Edit: she found this. https://www.huntfordky.com/new-Franklin-2025-Ford-Mustang-RTR+SPEC+3-1FA6P8CF4S5400353

Yeah. It’s expensive though… not sure if I want to throw all my extra money away on that.

I'd rather buy a lightly used S550 GT500 at that price, which will hold value better, not to mention having factory-level engineering and the 7-speed DCT.

Or 2 Mustang GT’s. I think the plan we have settled on is her a S650 GT Fastback and me a S550 GT350 with sub 10k miles.

Well, that didn’t last very long

Personally, I think people go waaaaay overboard with power on modified Mustang's. Slapping on a giant supercharger and winding it up to 700 hp is pointless if the car can barely contain the standard 480 - 500 hp. And adding wider tyres will only do so much. Considering the cost to do a supercharged Mustang properly, you really don't see a return on the spend, at the end of the day, it's still a Mustang.

That's why I'd say if you want a supercharged Mustang, buy the one that Ford did themselves. Those 760 hp GT500's are extremely capable because they are a more holistic approach.

I'd say the same for a GT350, a very well rounded drivers car. However, I would worry about the lack of reliability from that engine. I'm told Ford very quietly (as in NDA's were signed) replaced A LOT of those 5.2 flat-plane engines under warranty because they were vibrating themselves to death, and the replacement engines weren't any better. A ticking time bomb in my opinion.

Playing around with the grill off the FJ, trying to decide whether to repaint it, or put the original back on.
