This coming Saturday... Bill are you coming?

In two or three years someones traded in MM will end up like that.. or as a cop impersonator ... It is not uncommon to see riced out Crown Vics around here..:rolleyes:

I towed the B-17 with my GM. The actual weight is about 2530lbs when loaded if I remember correctly. The tongue weight is around 240 lbs... I did not do any mods at all to my GM except add the electric brake controller.. I do intend to mod the MM however.. I am going to go with 4.10's and...

My MM has 6K miles and is driven 50 miles round trip daily to work... That is in Atlanta traffic with a mix of stop and go lights as well as a little open 50 - 60 MPH running... the ***ulative (overall) MPG to date is 18.36. My worst tank was a 16.3 MPG and the best was 20.5 MPG. I have not...

427/435, I towed a travel trailer with my 97 GM, with the 41G Handling package (air suspension, 3.27 rear, 210 HP), with no problems.. My trailer is at http://www.trail-lite.com/bantamfloorfr.asp I never had any problems even driving in the Smokies during the summer... I will be doing it...

KSMM03, Different thread pitch...thats odd.... The locking wheel nuts from FLM / McGard are the same PN for the MM and GM and CV and so on and on... Me thinks someone was confused when they gave that answer.... Any PepBoys or AutoZone should be able to sell you the plain nuts cheaper than...

dark98stang, If you can move your schedule up and buy during the week between Christmas and New Years... That is a really crappy time for the dealers as they are looking at meeting both quarterly numbers and annual numbers...wait til mid January and that pressure is off.. In Atlanta you can...

I found this article while out surfing.... http://www.gminsidenews.com/05grandam.htm I do not know how reliable this source is but the SS guys have two petitions, that I am aware of, going telling General Motors their opinions...and they aren't pretty... Anyway it could be an interesting...

TTT Just a reminder to mark your calendars now...

Here is the info on the optional locks... http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=327&highlight=McGard

If you go to this post you see a pretty long thread on towing...I never expected this many replies... http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=746 In a nutshell Traction Control (TC) and a locking rear differential are not mutually exclusive, TC is on all 4 wheels where...

Yes, as long as I can get it in a color besides black...;) Danbury does good work..if you get a list or group purchase going you can count me in for two of them...got to get one for both offices right?

The link below will take you to a "offical" VIN Decoder that will answer some of your questions... http://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/vin_tools/vinlookup.asp The reason position 9 varies in our VINs is it a a checksum digit used to determine the VINs validity... below are my results...

I agree with your "step-child" analogy... In the case of the Mustang Cobra Ford saw fit to give both the Cobra Hard Top and Convertible seperate body codes from the "regular" Mustangs. The VIN will immeadiately tell you it is a Cobra not a Mustang.. However, the special edition "Bullit" was a...

Captdavid, Only Ford SVT's, and some special editions like the "Bullit" Mustang have a build sequence number assigned to them. That is part of the "Exclusiveness" of a SVT..... My 01 Cobra was number 584 of 3384. I was sent a Certificate with this info at the end of the 01 run by SVT... The...

Russ, If you go to the Ford Crown Vic site it says the combined weight of the car and trailer should not exceed 6600 lbs... I am sure someone will find the weight limit the hard way... Having towed RV's for years I would suggest anyone towing anything serious, 2000 lbs and up, look into...

I believe the salesperson only gets dinged on things that reflect on him or what's in his control... My dealership sales manager sends out a letter that if you cannot mark it "perfect" to please call him before sending it.. Those scores do reflect on their "Blue Oval Certified" standing or...

Blake, Part Number 2W7Z 5444210 AAA will get you a unpainted one if you do not want it in black...
