    Back in the Saddle

    All- Good to be back and posting. Been a looong time since I sustained a back injury in 07, and all but put my 04 Torch to sleep and stopped posting. Felt like I wanted to be put to sleep!

    saving gas

    I ran into a thread by a guy in the petro biz for 30 yrs, and he had some good advice I wanted to pass on. Can't say I'm ready to park the cobra no matter the price of super duper. But like everybody with a performance machine, I want as much bang for the buck as possible! Safe spirited...

    Bras, anyone?

    Thinking of getting a front BRA for the cobra, since there's no stone chips yet at 6k miles, and I want it to stay chipless. Anyone have experience with any brands, recommendations, costs? I looked into LeBra so far, but I want to get a good one.Thanx for the support!:lol: Micksnip
