Negative, A-Aron got the CT title so it was pretty easy. Just need to do emissions within 30 days

Speaking of emissions, i cant back this thing into the driveway when its going to be cold. entire house smells like diesel definitely didnt like sitting for a week and starting cold. neighbors are going to love me and the blue smoke

did about 100 miles in the 6.0 today! runs awesome, its sad looking back at how underpowered my 5.4 was now that i own this. not to mention im not even at 3/4 tank yet. i also pulled out a dodge stuck in the woods, lost a little more tread on the rear tires and filled all the seats and took a cruise around. definitely a good road trip truck, everyone liked the 4 buckets

i just need a new thermostat, which is on the way for $20. coolant isnt getting above 160*. and tires or a rotation or something

besides that

Aaron,
I always liked the torque thrust D's on the older Mustangs.

Those wheels really make the car IMO(ld) opinion.

need my money from the NY house, as well as my name removed from the mortgage. banks arent going to give me a loan until that happens.

i have been looking in middletown and durham area, there are a couple places i would like to go look at. there is a great house and garage with small barn but its sandwiched between two main roads.
