I have and pay for Sirius/XM radio. I drive enough to justify the expense. I thought I would pass on this news................................

Free sampling over travel holiday.  If you car is satellite radio equipped but you are not a current subscriber,now, through Nov 27 (Mon after Thanksgiving your satellite service will work for FREE up to 100 channels.
Should be as simple as just hitting the satellite button on your radio. No need to call or set anything up just hit the button and enjoy.

So, if you are heading "over the hill and through the woods" this holiday Season you have some FREE entertainment coming along with FREE TRAVEL LINK. Enjoy the Season . Z   :)

Good sale...

What's the chances a 9.5" wheel with 275/40 could fit in the front?

Looking at this...
http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=245&aspect=45&diameter=20&wheelwidth=8&offset=39&width2=275&aspect2=40&wheel_size=20&wheel_width=9-5&offset2=40

makes me think there's a chance.  The extra width is fairly split between inside and out.

I'm still on the Quest for a 2nd vehicle and found this 16 Ford Flex for sale @ a Ford Dealer for roughly 30k with 3,430 miles on the clock!
There is a good chance i could snatch it for 28K AFAIK!

The only issue found it did have two previous owners!
Thoughts,opinions greatly appreciated.  Z

I like the color.  The two owners in 1 year is unusual, but maybe not unheard of.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

IDK Z, when I had a non ECO Taurus rental I wanted to roll down the window and choke myself in it.

It had no soul.

Its that time of year again for my annual emissions testing which expired midnight!
So far so good!!!  :)  reverted back to stock tune and turned off the METH which was utterly painful! Lol.

I have driven roughly 47 miles and based on Torque-Pro the I/M Readiness still showing 2 monitors are still incomplete and not in the readiness state!
I will keep you updated on the end results.  Z

Flex looks nice.. but as FoMoCoSHO aptly put it when its missing the two tiny turbos..."It has no soul".. and a purple flex looks like a giant rolling grape... IMHO...

Thanks FoMoCo and SBS!  I guess being busy and all didn't realize the missing link (snails) Thanks though.  Z

Moved my racing helmet from the trunk to the garage... no need to carry it around for that "last minute trip" to the track.... until next year..
