    Do I think she could do it? Yes. Without cruise control (works 10% of the time) that would be a hell of a drive though!

    Hey all. Long time lurker. Need to part with my 80. Hopefully there is someone out there looking for a truck like mine! I bought it in 2018 with just under 250k miles on it. Now stands at 273k. Been a dependable truck, but she needs a few things I don't have time to do, and I have a new...

    Haha, no! I think I have only had the Stang out in the rain maybe 3 times in the two years I have had it. Its not suited to shuttling kids around either, at least not full time.

    Thanks guys. As much as I would like to try to tackle this myself, I do kind of need the truck on the road more quickly than I need to learn how to do this.

    Noticed a light bit of smoke front the front left wheel when I got home yesterday. Crawled underneath and snapped these pics. How driveable is this? I am going to have a shop do the work due to time constraints, but none of the shops are super close to my house. Thanks!

    I wonder why he offloaded it so quickly after rebuying it and having it done custom. That post is only 3 months old!
