After recent problems with my transmission I have been looking all around for anything I can do to increase the life of my car.

I bought this car from Glockafella 1/30/2010 as a replacement for my first MM rip.

I wanted to know what everyone thought as far as things I can do to get the most out of my car. Stands at 95K miles now.

Currently, I use 5w20 full synthetic mobil 1 every 5K with a motocraft filter.
Tranny and rear end have been both rebuilt about 2 months ago 4.10's:banana2:.

Things I am contemplating are..
Even flow cooling kit (Is Dennis the only one who sells these?)
Musclemerc's Catch can.
180* T-stat.

I drive very conservatively and go WOT maybe 5-10 times a month.
Also as money allows I want to get a second set of wheels and tires for summer and winter driving. All season are horrible in snow.
