decided to get the new car out for the first drive, needed air in the tires, all I can say is WOW!, the Supercharger is as sweet as can be, but the paint on this car is amazing, better than any stock domestic car I've seen, it's like glass. Saturday is DMV day, hope the Smog test goes smooth. Sorry for the blurry pics.

Funny you should ask, this car has 8700 original miles, everything on this car is like brand new, that is why I'm so shocked about the paint, I never new stock paint from Ford could look so good.

From my first drive, I now know why 4.10's are so common.

Beauty!
I've recently read threads in which Trilogy tunes had readiness monitors turned off. Reuires a stock tune to get through smog.
If you fail, do a search - pretty sure someone had the tune to get it solved.
Did you get any tuning device with the car?
great car, you scored!!

You could be right chief455, all I know at this point is, the original owner said he had to smog the car in Ohio. Yes, the car came with a "Xcalibrator" Multi-program obd-II flash device.

Do you have a Collector Vehicle Status Inspection (or similar) NV?

With this in NJ, you only have to drive less than 3K miles per year and no inspection:
