It's not the car.. it's just that fbody owners freaking rule at life and existing on this planet in every way imaginable. Owning an fbody increased my IQ, athletic ability, and performance!

some drivers just get lucky and can drive out of it, i'm not gonna say its because they're f-bodies.. this isnt the type of site that says "yeah man, fbodys rule, everything else sucks." the crash at atco, thank God he was ok... that mustang at the end, well, he's an ******* for driving like that on the street, hopefully he didnt hurt anyone.


EDIT: apparently ryan proved me wrong while i was watching the videos

if its true i should go make fun of the guy, how can you be so stupid? on the other hand i call BS cuz he's not the only one to crash on that road and most likely was just showing off to all the people on the sidestreet, cuz u know it was mustang week and all.

My bad, I was just on the 'out and they had that video posted to. but I looked back and in the new thread it says last year the guys pedal got stuck under the carpet.

So either im a dumb ass or he changed his storry, Im willing do say both

a few times my SS would just randomly stay at full throttle. like if you would punch it, then let off, it would stay up there even kicking the pedal down did nothing, usually it'll only last like 3-4 seconds, but still a little exciting, lol. My SS just has issues.

but at where i used to work, we would get a lot of cars in with the customers complaing about sticking gas pedals and most of the tiem they were caught on the floor mat, idiots.

eh...it did it maybe like 5 times total, 3 times for me, once for my friend and once for my gf, all times the cruise control was on but not activated, so i assume it had something to do with that, since the throttle cable goes to a motor in the engine compartment for the cruise control then finally to the throttle body. Since i shut off CC completely it never happened.
...but that was least of my problems with that car...
oil consumption(1qt every 1k miles)
piston slap
check engine light at 286 miles
hit deer @ 500 miles
Clutch @ 10k
Front rotors @ 11k
Clutch return spring @ 15k, 22k
starter @ 24k
rear axle @ 41k
rear axle @ 43k
window motor @47k
snapped TQ arm @ 45k
Motor go bye-bye last summer.
...and more i probably blocked from memory...
