Bet 90% of those were the LLT model, not the LFX.

I too rue the day I got this 6.2l "overkill"! I sometimes feel like I'm in a torture chamber everytime that supercharger kicks in -- so annoying!

And the adrenaline that surges in my vanes during WOT -- can't see straight at times



jajajajaajajajaj

Dumbest sh*t ever . But i'll tell you Friday mornings are pretty sweet but then it returns to hell rest of the day. Saturday mornings are the best, if I had twin turbos I'd have plenty speed camera tickets coming in the mail lol

I try and get out of work 30 minutes early on Friday to try and beat the traffic; however, it still sucks. And then whenever someone is on the side of the road everyone needs to slow down to see what happened...im like NO pay attention to the road and drive!

I have the passport 9500ix mounted to my rear view mirror. I have it wired directly so no cord. The bad news is its illegial in DC I highly recommend it worth every penny!

And yeah that's what I was looking at, that or redline! Recline because it's undetectable but idk if I could deal with the sensitivity

I think that's like about a 30 mph average on the way to work. Around here, we call that 'not too shabby'.
