RE: Sort of another "Christmas list" problem

paying for a "service check" is like paying to get raped in the ***...make sure they aren't taking you for a ride and NEVER imply that you really like your car because they will pick up on it and find all sorts of things to fix

well, i am gonna keep it for the duration of highschool and i want somethin that will turn the ladies head while my stang catches their eye lol, thats why i wanted a kit.

That's funny, I had no car till I was 18, and my V6 remained nearly stock till I was 19, and I got the ladies all the time, car, and no car. Yea, the ride helps, but not much, because seriously, how many girls know what you drive until you show up at their house ready to pick them up.................. not many.

nothing like turning on your car in the parking lot and the ladies look over to see who it is.

RE: Sort of another "Christmas list" problem

forget the kit. way better use of the money. oil change and tune up is a waste of money. do it urself. u will probably do it beter and u will know its done right. exhaust would be a good upgrade since u are gonna keep the car a little but still sell it. otherwise save up and maybe do little cosmetics with the money like paintin ur front bumper and such

RE: Sort of another "Christmas list" problem

Well, in my neck of the woods its rich kids whos parents buy them cars, and free money breeds the whole cosmetic before engine ideas.... But the service will be buy a family friend who manages the local ford dealership. and its quite needed because my powersteering pulley has a 5 inch chip around the circumference (The outside lip) and it may have a crack going thru the middle. The oil change and what not would just be a bonus that my dad offered to pick up for me for christmas. But i was leaning towards exhaust, so maybe ill get alil touch up where needed too..
