One of each trim level too. Ours is an SEL, the company car is an SE, and the dealer loaner is an SEL Energi

I've been out of town since last week, but my car needed some warranty work done. I didn't have time to drop the car off during working hours and the dealership offered to pick it up from me. I told them I was going out of town, but would leave the FOB in it and give them the door code. They let me know they picked it up and left a CMAX to drive until my car was done. I also have a CMAX company car until next week and my wife has a CMAX... Needless to say, it's CMAX parking only in my driveway.

Sorry, double post

LOL that is not a legal defense. It does not matter the slightest if it is legal in your state, it's illegal in the state you are visiting. That is all that matters. If your tint is too dark in the state you live in, and the cop actually measures it, it is unlikely you will be able to get out of the ticket. If you want 50-state legal tint, go 70% on the front and 30% on the rear windows. Most of the time when someone gets a tint ticket, it's for violating the tint limitations on the front window.

Also, to the guy tho tinted his windshield, tinting your windshield is illegal in all 50 states except for the top 4-6" (width depending on the state).

I'm aware, but my eyes are super light sensitive and believe it or not it makes it easier for me to drive at night. It's a risk I'll take and I've been doing it for 10 years and have never been stopped for it.

This should be a pretty good tank as well

I like your taste! I've owned a few Triumphs and always loved the RC51's

Love the Duc!

My last street bike was a 2000 Triumph TT 600 that I purchased new. It wasn't the fastest but was cool because I rarely saw another.

Marc Smith's thread about the kegerator made me think of a thread I posted in on a few other forums about man caves. A lot of cool fridge and entertainment areas were posted. Post yours!

Awesome!!  :rockon:

Definitely looks like Plastidip. You can get a spray can at any hardware store for around $7. I did the grille on my Fusion. I taped around it with blue painters tape. I also took a garbage bag and put it behind the grille to keep the dip off of the radiator and heat exchanger.

Wow, amazing!

Thanks for the replies! I can't take the credit for the "good" driving. It's my wife's car and all but the short trip home from the dealer were put on by her.

I can't pinpoint just one.. I've driven several but here are a few



A good friend of mine picked up a highly optioned McLaren MP4 12C and as always when he gets a new car asks if I want to come drive it and get some photos and videos. Of course, I never say no. 



The entire chassis is carbon fiber and aluminum. The car has a ton of other carbon fiber as well.. It weighs just over 2,800 lbs. and makes around 600 HP, so needless to say, it's quick! They are said to go low-mid 10's at mid-high 130's in the 1/4 mile in stock form. It stops on a dime as well with the huge carbon ceramic brakes and the wing assisted air brake which feels like a parachute coming out at speed.. It handles better than anything I've ever driven (including Ferrari's, GTR, Corvettes, etc.)



0-60 is about 3 seconds and the top speed is 207 mph.

I have a few

Very cool!  :rockon:

Very Nice!! Any mods or planned mods?

This one belongs to a friend of mine. He let me drive it while he held the camera...

I like the DUB edition Platinum one. 

They are pretty nice and the EcoBoost moves them well. I had this one about 6 months ago and was impressed with the mileage.

2001 Cobra Convertible - Bought it new for my 21st B-Day... Mods were offroad h-pipe, Flowmaster catback, CAI, Steeda shifter, 4.30 gear, Eibach springs, Livernois tune. 

C5 Vette Said this one would say stock... and it did... for a week. Mods were Livernois CNC heads, stage 1 cam, longtube headers and x-pipe, Z06 titanium catback, CAI, 4.10 gear, Lowered, and Livernois tune. 









 

I've owned 30+ cars, but these are some of my favorites.

1990 Mustang GT - Bought when I was 15, about a month before I got my license. 



1990 Corvette - Bought when I was 17




1996 Saleen Speedster - Bought when I was 18... Mods were offroad h-pipe, Flowmaster Catback, CAI, B&M shifter. 



1999 Saleen Speedster - Bought new when I was 19... Mods were offroad h-pipe, Flowmaster mufflers welded into the Borla Catback, CAI, B&M shifter, 3.73 gear, Livernois tune. 




 

Other forums I'm on have threads about other vehicles and toys and it's cool to see what other people own or have owned.

Current

2014 Fusion Titanium - Livernois Motorsports Dyno Tune, Eibach Springs, 5% tint sides and rears, 35% windshield, blacked out grille

Club Car Gas Golf Cart - Stock

A few weeks later - Mods are lift kit, wheels & tires, new seats, finished dash, painted roof, billet steering wheel, and some speed mods (it went 11 mph stock and goes about 25 mph now)

Rare 1988 JDM (Japanese) YSR 80. There are very few in the US and the US models were 50's.



I sold the Saleen in 1999, to buy a new Saleen, but still have the YSR. I've had several over the years, but this is the only 80 I've owned and still have.



We got it from Japan in about 1994 when I was 14 and it was shipped here in a crate via airplane.

Thanks!

I can't take credit, all but a few miles were put on by my wife. I'll try to get a photo next time.

Last month, we picked up a 2014 SEL Hybrid for my wife. It's our first hybrid vehicle and I'm impressed with the fuel economy and spacious interior. 

The first tank was all city driving with exception of the 20 mile trip home from the dealership and we got 640 miles on the tank.

Thinking about getting light tint (35%) on my wifes C-MAX. I've been tinting my cars for 10 years and it's hard to drive a car without it. My wife likes it, but wants it lighter than my Fusion.

Here is a quick photoshop I did of what I think it will look like with light tint

Much lighter than my fusion... which has the sides and rears 5% and the windshield 35%
