I quit - 20+ years doing the same job 130k a year fixing cars in the city
Wife and four kids later

Got my first home about 3 yrs ago (some equity in it) also OWN OUT RITE a 97 f-250 and a 2016 Thunderjet river fishing boat and a utility trailer
Never been late on one payment ever. But my high feluten life style means I live on the edge of my means. Got a couple of bucks in the bank and hope the get some from the home and car sale

My work was really nit together with friends and Christian church, I have some of the best friends you can emagine and some not so

I came from the country, it took a while but I just cant adapt

I gave it about one minute and decided to go start a cattle ranch WAY OUT OF THE CITY.

It's for sure. Last couple of days I burned a few bridges and thanked every one else , only ended up w a black eye and no one got shot

Selling house and SHO to get started and we will be in the truck in a couple of days on our way. And that's about it

My friend owns a Ford dealership and will just buy my car out rite or he said I can consign it on his lot

Thought I would see if you all here could help me with the car / price? Or sale

2013 SHO w/pp 16k mi
6k in audio and another 6k in mods
Always maintained and babied
10 or so 1/4 passes on stock tires 12.7

Any thoughts?

I do wish you the very best in your future endeavors.  It's a big change back to the country, hope it treats you well.

Unless things have changed lately, your best bet would be to take off all performance mods, sell those separately.  Then get a quote from Carmax what they will pay for the SHO.

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!

Good luck  in your new life, and I agree with the statement stated above, part the performative parts as you will get more money in the end.

Put it back to stock. Your car is going for around $25K wholesale (Manheim).

Good luck Mike...

My dream is to get out of the city, I crave the peace and quiet of rural living.

If you are an actuary, you can make a good living further out.  Some of the best salaries are in the IA/IN area.

Thanks
And as far as the car. It's as is. I gotta hit the trail and can't even think about working on it
If I can make a few bucks selling the car to hold us over for even a little while that's fine
