    Smile 122 K miles and I still love this car.

    This car is exciting, to me, even at my age - 75.5. Patricia will not, repeat not, let me part with it.

    When Zack identified my timing short comings I knew a tune at Mo's was in Silverback's future.

    A couple of years went by but finally the tune was updated by Jeff at Mo's garage.

    The car runs like a scared cat and pleases me more now than when it was newer and the first mods were made.

    Is it just me or when I look over at the car in the next lane and give them that "I just swallowed the canary look" their turn signal annunciator starts chiming? J/K

    This year Silverback gets a little bling for Christmas, a polished COT cap from lji372.

    Happy holidays everybody.

    Patrick and Patricia

    Merry Christmas Pat and Patricia!

    Pat, I saw an Elio this past weekend. Not bad for the price. Looks like a great commuter vehicle.

    A friend of mine is on the pre-paid list. She is half my size, so she should fit in it better than me!!!

    I hope I never lose love for my Marauder. This past summer was the best driving happy time of my life, because it goes anywhere, quickly, and looks good doing it.

    Completed the service routine this morning with the fuel filter change. The air filter and oil/filter were changed last week.

    Jason, my Honda auto mech middle son, did the honors and was rewarded with a few bucks and the opportunity to experience the acceleration after my recent Mo's tune.

    All he could say was OMG dad, that's the best it's ever run. Jason's been involved with Silverback from the beginning, 2004. He installed my nitrous sytem back when.

    He loves the way it shifts now.

    Regards,
