Not as fast off the line as thought it would be, but on the hwy it just moves.

Brake stands are always fun though! lol

Where is the hitch?

Looks good chase.... you sell the Ranger and the GTI for that Truck?

That's a big step up! I don't think it will have power issues of going up grades on the highway!

BTW Chase... don't wait for the boat show... buy a left over 08 if you can...

All 08 boats were bought with the dollar at par... thus buying a new boat you will have a 20% exchange rate differential... just something to think about..

Or just get used and call it a day..

Very nice truck Chase!!

Mike - too late already lowered and looks great!! :-)

WCW- Burnout pics to come!!

Chad - Hitch is hidden behind the bumper just have to remove a plate to get to it.

Brad - yes it is only 2WD :-(

Greg - Nope still have the GTI, Ranger and the CLS :-)

Just a new guy to the fleet. I know what your saying about the dollar at par and all, but it kills me that the new vrides will be the old VLX hull and maybe im hoping to much due to the economy the prices will drop bring it back to where we were last year or lower (or its just wishful thinking!)

hahaha come on now.. CLS is the prized ride of your father no? Besides this "truck" will walk all over him on the highway!

Hope you have lots of money for the tires you are going to be shredding off those rims! :-)

Time to get a boat though... you need to come up riding up where I am...

nope, he passed the lease on over to me when i opened my own store.

But sadly the lease is done at the end of the year, i think im going to cry when it goes back. I love it more than any other car i've owned.

But hopefully will see another one CLS 63 this spring if all goes well, but yah no doubt no more dilly daddling i need a boat, espcially now that i have something worthy of towing it.

But you def owe me a ride behind that beast, get it in early this spring ill get a drysuit!!

My launch date is May 2nd, 2009..... already booked!

Think you need a boat bad... forget the CLS and take that money and finance a new boat... throw a company sticker on it for advertisement and write off the payments as a company marketing expense... boom you got a "free" boat..

Chase - FYI 08 Ford Red = 08 Supra Red

there's a lot going on there, but I can dig it...nice ride. couple of things....
1. is it already lowered? doesn't look level in the pics....I have an '05 Ram lowered and I highly suggest helper bags for towing!
2. where are the foose wheels?
3. lsd rear diff?

(eas) · (eas) **Join Date: Nov 2001** 11-11-2008, 8:36 AM

okay...i'm an idiot who didn't read the first post all the way...i guess i jumped straight to the pics...

so forget #1, but how about this....did you notch the frame or get bags to help? or does it have independent control arms/springs on the back?

Hey Eric,

1.no it wasnt lowered yet in those pics, the ground effects and wider stripes give it a somewhat lower look.

2.those are foose wheels!

3. yes it has LSD :-)

and hey Graham, not from Oakville but it did come from Oakland, i almost went with the black one but then fell in love when i saw the Red one on the grass that day.

Sweet Stang!!
