alright, so iv been looking into a new whip to purchase in the next few months and would like some input.... i currently have a 2002 f150 lariat 5.4 v8 which mass mods and what not but i want some more speed lol. now the other weekend, my cousin let me drive his 2010 king ranch f250 6.4 twin turbo diesel and its STUPID fast and its still a truck which i like.but he has a good 60k+ in it and i dont want to spend that much haha. of course im going to finance whatever i get so if its new, im stopping at 30k...but then i got to looking into some nice used cars.. the 2004 mustang cobra cought my eye.. they are really fast and SUPER sexyy lol. 4.6Lv8 with a 2.6 whipple supercharger. i picked the 2004 because its probably my favorite newer body style. i really wanted something with a turbo or supercharger. i know u dont need a turbo or SC to get good power but im still young and its what i want lol. here are a few picks of my cousing truck (not trying to show it off, but damn its so sexyy...

i have driven my mechanics truck before which is a 2003 harley davidson f150 5.4L supercharged and its sickkk lol this video made me fall in love with the svt cobra :) the whinning of the supercharger is just.... orgasmic hahahaha

SKIP AHEAD TO 30SEC.

haha nice

At first glance, i thought he had a V1.

I would look into a 03-04 Cobra for sure if that what you like. I am a Mustang guy at heart and have had several.

I would look on svtperformance.com in the classifieds

Car had 27k original miles when we bought it. I made a few 9 sec passes in it. Was super fun coming off the trans brake and the car had a KB 2.8 Mammoth Kit and Powerglide, 9in and spray but never did put the bottle to it.

If you like trucks and speed look into a SRT-10. You can pick them up for a deal and they are really nice and will flat get. I also had one of those on a 175 shot and I tell you, that SOB was a monster!

Is that a 25.1 car?

25.2, good for 6.0 in the 1/4

You're like 19 or 20 right? IMO, buy a cheap fox body, put an On3 turbo, used Vortech or similar kit on it, and use it as a learning tool. Buy a house, get some credit, and then go crazy with a really nice car. The fox will cheap on insurance, cheap to repair, and easier to learn on, and they are pretty light. Not as nice as the SN95s, but still a lot of fun and cheap fun. I'd also look into the 93-2002 F-body if you are interested in any GM stuff. Great platform stock, easily modded and powerful. Can be a bit of a pain to work on, but not too bad. They are rattle traps though, but still very fun and they look good.

25.2

Were you guys running it locally or any sanctioning body?

Just a Friday night fun car. Didnt really fit into many classes well because of low power and big chassis, etc. The plan was to drop Big Twins in later and run 7's or so but lost interest in a drag only car.

But Lantz I wouldnt worry much about buying another Mustang. Dude you have tons of time to blow money on cars, LOL. I feel old now.

I was like this right out of HS, but union electrician. Buy something cheap and bank the money. You may think it's okay now, but when that job goes bye bye or you get laid off and that money is gone, you'll be kicking yourself. I thought just like you and I've spent the past 12 years digging out of my hole.
