Do you care enough?

My observation is that those here actively posting in politics section, care enough to generate the conversation. Thank you all. For all of our dissimilarities we find a common ground. We know our systems need changing. We know that societal prejudices need addressing. We each attack our subject from different angles and we can get caught up with semantics and insignificant details, some of the best minds argue it out daily. If you find yourself egoing it out with someone try to remember our common purpose. Again thank you all who contribute to this section, you keep me talking about real subjects. In my circle of friends and family topics are limited to Jeromy Kyle type bullshit.

Hell no! I was supposed to leave Thurs around noon, ended up staying Late Thur. to finish up some things at home, so I stayed the night, went to leave in the AM and car was dead, checked it out , needed an alternator..I have a parts car..so i went and took it off that..it's 4 yrs old, but the same car.....different part...:wall:...not one in stock anywhere and most stores started closing early..and if there was one in stock.. I didn't have a car. Everyone I know went down Thurs. and I'm not asking them to drive 2+ hrs round trip to come get me...on the 4th. I just ordered one online, says it'll be here Monday.

I have Stainless dual exhaust system system waiting to go in.. along with a locker rear, billet control arms, upgraded sway bars and brakes. Just a real clean daily driver..

I was gonna say 4 banger civic dx hatch just to be a douche, but the rear locker throws that out.

What we building?

crown vic sport. people laugh because of the size, but it's got a 50/50 weight balance and with the suspension upgrades, i out handle new 'stangs for a fraction of the price in comfort. I just need to save some $$ for a supercharger...:fire:

Crown Vics (assuming interceptor model here) don't have actual locking diffs. They have Limited Slip rear Differentials. Ford calls them Trac-Loc, but they aren't real locking diffs. A real locking diff will create handling difficulties.

I am always amazed by how well a Crown Vic can take a speed bump.
