Had a 91 5.0 hatchback, non GT.....
Ide love another but theyre a fortune now for what they are.
But absolutely sweet car for what it was.

I had to buy another one, about 5 years ago, but my wife was not allowing it. She thinks they are ugly, which many females think these days. What's funny, my Mustang had 312 HP to the rear wheels. I thought that was pretty fast. Now, there are SUV's pulling higher numbers.

Theres nothing fast about a fox body compared to a modern car today, the 4 cylinder mustang today will blow the doors off a 90's fox body....
Im not a fan of the gt, but the lx hatchback just has clean lines, sexy...
Dont get me wrong if someone gave me a GT, I would be stoked!!!!
Lower it, the right wheels & tire package so they fit tight & perfect, you have a sweet looking car....
The nostalgia, theyre easy to work on compared to whats under the hood on todays vehicle...

Just got my stud finder, single stud TV wall mount and single stud floating shelf. Ya know, for the DVD player.

TV is mounted to the wall!!! Floating glass shelf mounted to the same stud directly under the TV. No way that TV is coming out of the wall. 3 long lag screws and I used a torque wrench to tighten them into the wall at 80 ft.lbs each lol. The whole setup has a max carrying load of 80lbs. I think I increased that some. Everything mounted is leveled.

Just bought me a pair of computer speakers for the desk. A pair of Samson MediaOne M30 speakers. Small, black and should blend in behind the monitor. Had to get something. The speakers in this ASUS monitor are garbage. Anyway, these should handle the mids and highs pretty well. 3" speaker and 3/4" silk dome. I will add a subwoofer later. Probably another Yamaha Active Servo sub... the last one was just right.

Starting a new job in July. It offers 50% off for cell phone service. SO, I have been wanting a flagship phone again for a while... this Motorola is less than capable of jack spit. So, if you guys had a choice of these two phones, what would you go with?

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra

or

Google Pixel 10 Pro XL

It all depends on the look you're after. The MT09 is the most modern looking bike, while the Z900RS is the most vintage looking. The MT09 and Trident are a lot alike, but the MT09 sits up more. Personally, I like the MT09. Another thing you might want to do is sit on them and see which one looks the best with you on it. Trust me, that does make a difference. I'm pretty big into motorcycles.

I just bought 650 sqft of SOD and all the plumbing for a new sprinkler system. My kid graduated, and they wanted to have the party in the back yard. After all the SOD, sprinklers, and catering service, and decorations, this had to be the most expensive graduation party ever. It cost me close to $5000. So much for upgrading my sound system in my Toy-Hauler.

I should be able to sit on the MT-09 and Z900RS. I believe inventory shows both on hand at my nearest motorcycle stealership.
