I noticed in some people's signatures they have a few other vehicles listed. Post up some pics and videos and lets see what else is your pride and joy other than your Ecoboosted vehicle!
Here's my baby. My 1999 Mustang. Had it since I was 15 and through the years almost every single bolt has been turned in it. I have done all the work myself besides set the gears in the rear end and paint.
It has been through a few iterations. First cammed w/bolt ons, then supercharged and converted from auto to 5sp, now turbocharged. I prefer the "OEM+" idea of aesthetic modifications so it has various Cobra, Mach1, and Bullitt pieces. Eventually I want to put a nice video together of all the pictures and videos I have of it progressing and all the dyno and track runs since I first started driving.
Unfortunately it hasn't been driven much over the last 3 years. I kind of got burnt out with it. I plan on turning it into a weekend road course car for its next iteration. Still could use more suspension work and strengthen up the motor. I can't believe the stock motor is still holding together. It does only have 34k miles on it though.

Heres a video I did for a guy that was interested in buying it. Normally I can almost do WOT in first, but it was only about 38* outside, so 2nd was spinning pretty good. Remember, bike is still on stock gearing, and I was about 340lbs in the video, so imagine it with a 150-175lb rider... (Click for video)

they're awesome except the gas mileage lol !!!!!!!!! I traded my blown f150 in on a G35 when gas prices went through the roof a few years ago. I regretted it but saved a lot on my daily drivers gas consumption.

I guess I picked out the Mustang year in particular, the truck just a coincidence got a good deal on a cool truck.
I have no idea on the 440 it's not really my thing and hard to find info on them, but I rode in the truck once with the engie running good before it spun a main bearing (my younger brother just didn't take care of it) and it was plently powerfull even with the stock cam and 8:1 compression. It was suggested to put a RV cam in it since I just want loads of low end power to burn up the tires and haul stuff around town :)
65 Galaxie with a 535hp 460. Hence my forum name:65460
61 Fairlane 390 with an automatic overdrive. 1961 dealer installed air.

My money pit the last few years is a 09' G8 Gt. I went and had a couple of boats bring some parts over from AU to transform it into their version, HSV GTS. Had some performance done and left it NA, 447/411rw in a mustang dyno.

(http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/ag70/Slideoil/MR2CobraSHO_zps7af6d4d6.jpg)
Dad bought the '93 Cobra brand new. I borrowed it from him while I got my masters, and then kept it for 10 more years. No real mods... just a clean 120,000 mile original daily driver. It went back to him to make way for the '13 SHO.
The '93 MR2 is currently off the road. I've yanked the NA 2.2 4cyl to be replaced by a 3.5 V6. Should be a bit more fun with triple the power...
(http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/ag70/Slideoil/IMG_20130711_154944_zps48a07621.jpg)
I don't have enough spare time away from life or my other hobbies (art and gardening (yes, gardrning)), to really spend on my vehicles. So, they're forever projects. Lol! But, I'll share my other tinkerings, aside from the new SHO.
1972 Chevrolet C-10 Highlander LWB
350/350, and all original. Really haven't done enough to it that's worth mentioning. Just keeping her on the road. Love driving it. Definitely my most prized possession, as it has always been in my family. And you wouldn't possibly believe the attention it gets, being a ragged old farm truck. Somebody makes a comment every time I drive it.

My 2002 Neon SXT. My second car, and my first new one. Still have it since 02! I'll keep it forever, if my wife will let me. Needs some work, which I'm not looking forward to doing. But this has been my most reliable car, believe it or not. I drive it pretty frequently.

And my wife's 2013 Mazda CX-5. Super fun to drive, believe it or not. Slow, but nimble and very light weight for its size. I love it. I'm a Mazda guy at heart. I'd slap some wheels and springs in this thing, but she doesn't want me to. :/

Then double click and you should get an image gallery of your pics. If you keep scrolling through them you can also access all the images in the thread. I had a similar problem... but others could see the images. Anyway, that's how I have to view some images.
First Mod to the CTS-V - did some plastidipping :)
We did the grills, side vents and rear license plate holder.
Need to do the V's, rear exhaust surround, powdercoat the exhaust tips, foglights and do the window trim but a good first round of plastidip! :) I also need to send my lights off to get blackedned as well. :)
Took us about 4 hours last night to do the work so far, I put cardboard behind the grill to stop the overspray on the HX.
