Adding a third-gen Taurus SHO to the family soon

super ugly but hey it's another V8

My dad likes the 1st gen SHO best. I think they're ok.

Just finished a mid-night run through Palomar Mountain with 8 other cars, two of which were other 370z's.

Can you invite me over? Lol

My paddle shifter is borked again. This is the third time I've had to get the same issue fixed since I bought the car in August.

Dunno if you'd want to come.. we were driving so fast that we ended up breaking our cars.



Oh, and here's a sample of the speed vs terrain

You need to vid your next run with a dash cam

[.::Taboo::.]

(dash cam = tape your phone to the windshield)

[Alyx Vance]

If it works than it works

I tried to record it but my friend forgeted it up by calling me literally 45 seconds into the drive and I couldn't set it up again whilst driving so I just gave up.

However, one of my friends did record it. I'll post that link once he finishes editing and uploading.

That is a nice dash, is that screen touch screen?

i was going to buy this to use as a dashcam and other things

it's incredibly tiny and lightweight compared to a GoPro

Is that video sideways for you guys? Wtf YouTube. It's not sideways on my phone nor in the editor, but for some reason it's sideways on the actual video.

Yeah.

GoPros are pretty loving tiny. In comparison the mount is huge in relation to either, so it really doesn't matter. I'm gonna get a GoPro sometime soon.

Video looks fine to me.

Same.


The truck I'm getting doesn't have any cab light what so ever, that includes the dash. Should I take and try to fix the lights or just make some simple fix and wait till I can get a new vehicle? Its a '96 dodge

If you can't see your dash driving at night is going to be a nightmare. Either bring a lantern with you or get it fixed, I wouldn't recommend driving at night with no speedometer.

Don't worry, I'll have some sort of light. Even if I have to get one of those lightbulbs that you can mount anywhere that runs off of batteries.
I've used that truck at night before when moving it for someone and it wasn't fun trying to get it in gear.
