I just look at it like I need to have a truck for boats and hauling stuff but I don’t “need” a car if I can my the truck fast enough to keep me happy

I have an 18 also, it runs pretty good for stock

 

[Spivitz]

Maybe we should add a pole.
My vote is keep the Mustang

 

[ZXMustang]

I wouldnt. Daily driving my "fun" car ruined it for me. A nice DD is great, but when its time to play with it, I was hesitant for a few reasons. Not to mention you should always follow the golden rule of not modding your DD.

 

[Knowklew]

I had this same dilemma this year, just never drove the vette. So, I sold it.

 

[cdh027]

I'm the opposite of Eagle. I couldn't imagine daily driving a real nice car again. I did that with my Cadillac and it drove me nuts. I like having something chew on the salt and snow that doesn't bother me and I know I have toys in the garage sittin pretty.

 

[cdh027]

Keep the stang.

 

[willizm]

I mean I still love driving my car don’t get me wrong, but I drove it less this year then any other year, every full pass I’ve made in the car this year was a high 9 that doesn’t include when the track went to shit at 41 and I was peddling the crap out of it, but I’m less enthused about drag racing it because it runs what it runs it’s consistent and anybody could jump in and run a 9, I guess I am bored with it lol,

Kinda how I felt about the TA although I'm not into Boats or brappin' like the cool kids but a nice change of scenery may help as I found alot of new excitement in having the Supra so maybe change it up and get into something completely different.

do the best you can $$ wise,we all lose interest in our hobbies & move on, as we & your family gets older..plan your future,trust me
wish you the best
you can always go back to your interest in cars

 

[crooks]

Try it, but I think you will be tiered of your daily in 2 years or I was.

For me the first year it was cool now its just a truck. I expect it to feel new to me again after not driving it for two months.

I’m covered on the retirement front if that’s what your talking about, I’ve been putting 12% a year away since I was 20, I upped that to 16% a couple years ago, I do spend money like a teenager with a really good job though lol

 

[greasy]

I have my truck as my daily and the Hellcat comes out when it’s nice. I love ripping on the car and look forward to driving it and taking it out cruising. Wouldn’t change it for a thing, it is a release cruising in the car.

My personal opinion is when your fun car moves on the spectrum to only a track car is when you get bored with it.

i drive mine a lot but my family isn’t into car stuff, when it’s nice out and I could joyride I end up boating or something else family related

 

[1quick]

I think I put 5000 miles on it this year did the 1/2 mile that was the only event I managed to get my family to come to this year that’s the first time my wife has ever came to a car event, she’s scared I’m going to crash and die racing my car and dosent want to be there to see it, hit the drag strip 3 or 4 times

 

[Blood on Blood]

I like the Supercharged F150, Raptor, Track Hawk route.

Tuners at their respective places pull the same tune files. If a true custom tune, focus would be for Ken (PBD) or John Sr (Lund) to be behind the keyboard.

 

[1quick]

Yeah I have rob at pbd do all my tuning, I would definitely stick with him, I’ve been really impressed with the mustang and how well it’s run and stayed healthy at this power level

For as often as he changes rides I don't see this being a huge deal tbh. I hate to say it that way but he'd be in another car in 2 years anyways probably.

Also, it sounds like you did a SC setup on the 'stang. Those aren't light by any means, I don't know if you'd lose that much doing the truck in terms of quickness. Maybe see if the SC setup will work on the truck with minimal mods since it likewise seems to be a 5.0?

I just think this is repressed guilt for not building that epic 3800 4th gen. That's all.

The car weighs around 4000lbs, I think the truck would be around 5500 probably a couple hundo more for the blower stuff

I get the money to usage ratio. What about a more affordable toy that you don’t feel bad about not driving when it’s sitting?

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

No. Get something that isn't just a drag car though. Something fast that can handle. Maybe it isn't running 9s, but it'll be more fun if you can whip it around compared to a drag dedicated speed demon.

Also more friendly on the streets so you'd be more likely to take it out. Maybe something with a little luxury so the wife would want to ride in it.

Fast trucks are just as boring and I bet you'll get bored of it too. But since it'll be your daily, it'll take longer til it hits you, but I bet the truck gets boring even with 700hp

 

[Yaj Yak]

The new 150’s handle pretty good for trucks, but yeah

it does, like in the spring when you first get the car out god damn this thing is fast

yeah limited f150s are .82 skid pad ratings that's absurd for a 4wd truck.
