Does it ever end????

My youngest son is ordering more parts for the green thing. He and his brother were in Amarillo last night and ended up looking at the tail lights of a Roush mustang. I think he's on a mission now. I told him it might have been the 4 lard butts he had in the car but what do I know. What do these things have in them anyway? He wound up about a car and a half behind when it was all said and done.

It depends. They have a stage one, stage two, and a stage three. I could be wrong, but I think the stage one has the Roush suspension and the body kit, the stage two has the suspension, body kit, cold air intake, mass air meter, and a short throw shifter, and the stage three has all of the above plus a supercharger and a few other goodies. Once again, I'm not sure, but if my memory serves me, that's pretty close. I have always liked Roush, since I laid eyes on my first Roush F-150. It was bleu with white racing stripes, extended cab, the famous extremely oversized and overpriced Roush rims, leather interior blah blah blah. I only wish I could afford the stage 3.

Yeah, those roush stage III's are fast (they are supercharged) so i wouldn't feel bad to be spanked by a 40,000 dollar roush mustang. I'd personally rather buy a cobra than one of those roush's. The stage I and stage II are overpriced as well, but i suppose they look ok and handle decent.

I think you're right about the 4 people in his car, that makes a huge difference.
