Does anyone even care about car audio anymore?

Thanks. I noticed that you mentioned a 2006 Mustang project. Do you still have any photos?

This is my 06 Mustang ...I have it loaded with new parts but unfortunately due to a bad knee injury ..shattered right knee cartilage from being rear ended by a drunk driver at a red-light 2 years ago my mobility has been bad ... surgery this past summer only made it worse ...
 
Sorry to hear that.. f'ing terrible!
Thanks ...it messed me up pretty bad ... going from enjoying pretty much everything to learning how to balance and walk again ... before that I was into rock climbing ...hiking ..exploring and enjoying the out doors ...now I can barely go up stairs ...flat ground im sorta ok because I've learned to take the weight off that leg ..and it goes to the left now ... but most of what I enjoyed has been over with... one never knows ... and has no control over something like this ..

This was taken about a month ago as seen the right side is about 50% larger from the swelling.. the wreck happened end of April going on 2 years now ...I had the operation back in June 2020 ..which made it worse ...its been swollen like this ever since the wreck ... every step has a pain level of 4 or higher upto 8 where I feel like it will buckle because it hurts so bad ... from my research..I found it will never heal ...My work that would normally take 2 hours takes me now about 8 hours ... I wish I'd had a simple break ..id been been better in a few months ... but I guess its just part of life ...at least I lived through it ..so should count blessings..not sorrows ....

I broke my right heel (calcaneum) last year at work. I was climbing a ladder and one of my gloves ripped, lost grip and fell +/-12'. I'm recovering better than my orthopedist predicted but still going to need shoe ortesis for the rest of my life. The worst was the cast I had for 2 months. Had to re-learn how to walk because it f'ed my muscles.

Last year was hell but I can't imagine how bad knee injuries must be. I really hope you have all the moral support you need over there.

God bless brother!

Thanks ... I hope you get through your injuries as well ...I got fitted to a special knee brace about 2 weeks ago ..but have worn it twice ..the second time it left my leg bruised and in pain ...though it helped with my knee pain a lot ..ill probably try it tomorrow and trek around the snow here ...and try and take a few pics ... of the landscape ..they are saying at least 12 hours of snow predicted...ill feel like I'm up north lol
 
Hey I am not middle aged I am just well yeah damn it middle aged,lol.

Even being 44 I still have the itch for car audio and will till I die. I get the feeling most of us will be in our '80s still have system's installed if we are still driving,lol. That or having someone we know drive us while still crank up the system.
