This weather really blows..

[KB-Marauder-S]

Sitting here wishing I was in my Marauder , burning up the streets and rippn it down the Dragway :burnout:

This snow is got to go !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BODYMAN]

Kinda What I thought about a week or so ago high 5 degrees in STL but yesterday it hit 60 degrees and sunny OH Ya. Got to drive My baby for 2 days in a row. Dont worry soon enough the warm weather will come.

[Egon Spengler]

I hope you put yours away for the winter and have a beater Mike!!!!! Unfortunately mine is a winter beater as well and is now dented up from a branch landing on it during the ice storm and the front and back bumpers are warped underneath and I am very depressed about it and have alot of work to do when the spring rolls around!!!! Can't wait to get the 18's back on and the motorcycle out!!!!

[Raudermaster]

Hey Mike long time no talk. I'll be getting something fun in a few months! :burnout::burn:

[Raudermaster]

TJ you gotta lose those GM wheels man.

[ImpalaSlayer]

[Egon Spengler]

TJ you gotta lose those GM wheels man.

[hot-rauder]

Yeah in the boonies of DE...

Mike I hate this weather too.... and I want my 18s on too. lol ;)

[Raudermaster]

[Raudermaster]

Dude shut up, you're such a cry baby. Learn to joke.

[ImpalaSlayer]

[Raudermaster]

Get out of the NE section anyway.

[ImpalaSlayer]

sorry, didnt know you owned this section

[hot-rauder]

wow. hissy fit just happened.

So now Dave has no sig, no avatar, and "isnt here".......

Damn Jarod, you just ran train on this thread. Without even owning a MM. lol

[Raudermaster]

No, I'm sick and tired of it. He needs to realize this is the "interweb" and not meant to be taken literal. He does the same crap to me on IM too. I don't have anyone on my Ignore list, it might be time too though.

I hope to get a jump on finishing up the detailing before the summer.. I always wait last minute.

[Davesvt2000]

I'm making some good $$$$ snow plowing these past few winters !!!

Couldn't agree with you more! I may be able to get a fox body AND a Trilogy for the truck. Want to sell the '93? lol

[Davesvt2000]

Want to sell the '93? lol


LOL I was just saying to the GF that I'm going to put the 93 on the road this year, it's been off the road for almost 3 years.

My ins. policy renews May 1st, and even if I just put it on for a few months, I should drive it more often.

[knine]

2 to 3 more inches of "Global Warming" forcasted for today. At least it has to warm up a little to snow.

[rayjay]

I'm getting itchy too. Every time I do the neighbors driveway I see my DTR, well at least in her winter blanket. Come on spring! Expecting another 6-10" here tonight. No real snow in the last 5 days, which is good since I'm comp'd up due to a fall on the ice. Just what I needed :rolleyes:

[KB-Marauder-S]

You should try to find a cheap Marauder to do up.. though it is cheaper to build a stang. Either way your never around anyway so I won't have to worry about racing you :burnout:

[Raudermaster]

lol I'm still upset I was never able to bring my car to the track and run it myself. Hey, I know of 3 good MM's I'd be able to get for under $8k, but like you said, much cheaper to mod a 'Stang and be faster.

[hot-rauder]

Jarod, if your free tomorrow, would it be possible to test fit a MM on my fusion sometime? or could you do it to your dads?

I know the tire will be too big, but i need to make sure it will clear the rotors. I was told I shouldnt have a problem, but better to be safe than sorry.

Im going Sunday to pick them up... they come with the locking Godshead valve stem caps (already promised to Davesvt2000) and Matryo fender badges if someone wants them......

[Raudermaster]

Where'd you get them from? lol, uh, they're in my shed, which is in turn 50ft away from my house, and there seems to be about 6 or 7 good inches of snow that is stopping me to reach my shed. If you want to come over and dig a path lol be my guest. The 235's should fit (I'm going by my SHO which had 235's in the front and they didn't rub) obviously the 245's will probably have a problem in the front.

[hot-rauder]

A guy on here, username is Seans

He bought a red g8 so he was selling his rims and tires for 600....

You wimp, ill walk to your shed and grab them myself.... Unless that will ruin the every so perfect snow coverage of your backyard. :rofl:
Im getting 225/45/18s for them. To match the stock tire on the Fusion Sport package

^^ Makes me think of the FG episode when Stewie finds the absolute perfect spiderweb to show Brian. :lol:

[Raudermaster]

Well, if you want to come over before noon time tomorrow we can test fit them.

[hot-rauder]

I get out of work at noon....

I shouldnt have a problem. Ill see if my old snow tires fit the fusion. If they clear, the MM wheels will for sure.
My rotors are MUCH smaller than the MMs anyways

[Raudermaster]

Well, I can try tomorrow and see if one fits.

[hot-rauder]

Well, I can try tomorrow and see if one fits.


Dude it would help soo much. IDK if the v6 and 4cyl have different brakes on them but if any case yours would be larger. If you can it would help soo much dude.

Fusionrauder here I come!

[Raudermaster]

I'll do one side tomorrow morning and see what they look like.

[hot-rauder]

Thanks! Ill buy you breakfast next time... No Cracker Barrel though. Im tired of not getting enough food. We are going to Denny's!

[Raudermaster]

lol I get plenty of food on my plate? IHOP!!

[Davesvt2000]

4 - 6 more inches of snow tomorrow here in the 01453....

(Just wanted to bump up some action in here, hasn't been a post in two weeks :eek: )

[rayjay]

We got it last night

This what winter looks like here. This has actually melted down about 2 feet from its high a few weeks ago.

[hot-rauder]

RayJay.... leave your crap weather where you are! We dont want it.....

Getting the Mach ready for spring. Installing AVICf700bt, custom made sub box to fit trunk, Mach1 gas door, and hopefully by April, if not late May, a little whine under the hood ;):burnout:

Come on man, you know you want the snow! FWIW, we haven't had what I'd call a "storm" since October 23, 2008, when winter started here :help:. All that is from our daily doses of winter. I have a seeking suspicion we are going to have a BIG one in mid March. We are over due for a blizz-ARD...

The Mach sounds like it will be sweet. Bring her to Carlisle for me to oogle :D


I put my youngest on a plane at noon and looky what I get by email:

well at least one of us is living right.

[Master]

Never ending snow here, too. The 13hp snowblower tried to make a break for it out through the tailgate of the F-350 the other night. Popped one side clear off the pins. Wow! Imagine a 200 pound snowblower AND a tailgate hurtling down the road toward your car. Yikes!
Ummm. Re Fusion Marauder wheels: Fusions are five bolt? This is news to me. Welcome news, if true.
PS you don't need to say FusionRauder, eh? Its a Fusion, so its self explanatory. Whatever you do to it, its a Fusion of sorts. So adding FusionRauder is redundant. :)

Better news, the Fusion has the same offset and bolt pattern as the MM.... :up:

Ah The Redundancy Department of Redundancy.

So you could throw some 05+ bullitt wheels on it :beatnik:

[hot-rauder]

Yes sir, however they would be to wide, so a spacer would be nessecary, and then to get that to fit would be too close.

The stock rims were 7.5" MMs are 8", with all the math done out they will fit. I will have a smaller tire than anyone has put on a MM rim, but it will be the stock size tire for the Fusion 18s.

[rayjay]

Did you get your snow? A hot 3" here today. Calling for up to a another foot here by this time tomorrow night. Somebody please croak that woodchuck...

[Rocknthehawk]

we got maybe an inch....lots of sleet and rain.

yesssss

[Raudermaster]

I hope we get some snow Sunday/Monday, more $$$.

[Egon Spengler]

This weather is garbage... totally trashed my car this season... definite winter beater next winter!!!!

[Raudermaster]

Uhh, did I miss what happened to your car?

[hot-rauder]

Welcome to last week Jarod, now get in chat!!
