You know, after driving my stang for a while, it's really not so bad with the stock rear end.  ONly has a slight whine, at highway speeds the tach is only about 2800-3k,  I don't haul ass off the line anyway here in Houston or anywhere else for that matter.  I think I (and We) just get wrapped up in "what else can I do to my ride!"  I installed my new Pioneer blue tooth radio and it sounds great and the phone system is awesome too(don't know about when I'm riding down the freeway though), and it looks really good!
I finally found a station that I can fill my tank up at full speed and my tank reads just below full!

I think it's time just to enjoy my product and quit "fixin it",

now I need to spend a little time on my '57 Chevy (exhaust mainly, seat belts, pretty the motor up) and that's about it,
now I've got the hots for an old truck just as a daily driver~ I'm looking at a '57 F100 right now~ I just want a beat up (not too beat up) truck that I can use daily!

I feel useless without a full blown project! :shrug  I have a whole full garage full of tools and nothing major to work on! :roul

If you are like me, I would buy a rough driver......6 months and it is looking better.....another 6 months and I am looking at paint......low cost repairs but just have a hard time driving "a beater". Wife tells me I cannot fix up the beater '93 Ranger....except maybe the tranny. lol
