They finally finished the fuel pump on the 99 cougar.. Took em 6 days and 700 dollars, got it back and looked like total crap.. Went and washed it and while vacuming out the interior noticed they broke the clips on the back seat, so they just laid the seat bottom in place, plus they didn't line up the carpet around the seat area. Called em and basically got a screw you type of response. Bout right for the shops around here. Shoulda just towed it to Patrick!

I just talked some folks into switching over from a stock 2012 Cummins to a 2013 with FULL Carli setup and American Forces. Nicest truck I've seen in person in a while. Only $1k more too.

Got an pics Kent?

Been checking the local Vo-tech school each day. I want to sign up for the welding class for the fall. I want to make sure I get in. I have my exhaust all planned out, just need the welding ability. I'm going to start with the first class and then take the second. All the while I'll keep practicing. Been reading about the welders... lot of great info out there.

I didn't take pics of the Dodge, but I did take pics of this bad boy. We bought it and Idrove it around for a little bit. We need to redo the whole front end (CVs, etc.) cause it's trashed, but it was the smoothest ride ever and completely comfortable. Other than the size itself, I'd be able to drive it every day no problem. We were just going to send it to auction, but we're gonna see how bed the front end is and maybe retail it. It's a 2011 with 45k miles.





Parts list just going from memory:
-12"+ Custom suspension lifts with full-length coilovers and 3" BL, all PC'd purple.
-Road Armour bumpers front and back PC'd black to match paint
-Full retrofit
-Custom leather/suede interior
-Full audio - Components in the doors, two amps just for the doors, carved out the back of the cab and front of bed for a bass channel for the sub box that consumes the entire bad - sounds AWESOME
-22x12 or 14's wrapped in 40x15.50x22 Toyos
-50" Rigid on the roof, smaller ones in the bumper
-PTM tow mirrors
-Probably 5.13 gears cause it really isn't that slow
-Ghetto dumped exhaust that will probably crack the manifolds because it's not supported by anything and bounces around (probably 10 feet long)

It really does look SEMA quality. The guy said he put about $20k extra into it, but I'd say it was closer to at least $25k+.

Might as well post the "Ruined Raptor" as well. We painted the wheels black and took off the heads and tails. The guy was forced to trade it in because of a divorce and he took home another red Raptor from us . . .

Nah, i'll continue making the 500 mile round trip drive to you.. I like my country living away from the traffic and toll roads

Last trip we made it there in 3hrs and 10 mins for 230 miles, then took 45 mins to go the last 10 miles.
