    I'm with doom. Day I picked it up with the Trilogy installed. Never driven anything like it. My friend was shocked too.

    Second favorite had to be picking it up at the painters. Can't believe what a clay bar can do.

    Third the day I test drove it and bought it, and spun it out in an intersection.

    My favorite day...

    Woke up at 6:00am to catch a flight from Charleston, SC to Albuquerque, NM. Arrived in ABQ at 1pm (Mtn time). Walked out to passenger pick-up area just as my MM was rolling up. Gave it a quick once-over, signed one last piece of paper, grabbed the keys, threw my bag in the trunk and drove off to start my journey back to SC.

    Every day since then has been just as good....

    I was scheduled and booked for MV IV and New Smyrna but ended up spending my "Marauderville vacation" in the hospital. Otherwise it would have been the Marauder 14 @ New Smyrna. Darn sorry I missed that one.

    New favorite:
    Just this evening, went to GMC dealer to pick-up wife's Acadia. They had a nice, yellow SS2 Camaro on display across the lot. I checked it out quickly (I'd take it...but not for the $31k!) As I walked back to my MM, a salesman came out of the showroom. Before he could say anything, I said "I was just lookin'. Not really interested." He came back with, "That's fine. I was actually coming out to get a better look at your Marauder. The car's a beast!"......from a GM dealer.

    I was impressed he knew what it was, only looking at the nose. My local Ford dealer, after having it for service once (and only once) still insisted on referring to it as my Grand Marquis

    My best day(s) the day I found the srt8 magnum I raced when I was bone stock after I did my mods to my car.

    2nd one every time I go to a marauder meet.
    Nitrous, a TURBO, 4.10's, are like a hot blonde with a STD, you really want to hit it but you are just afraid of the consequences.


    Best e/t 12.7 @108mph with a 1.9 60' on eagle f1.
    best on e/t streets 12.40 @108 with a 1.6 60'<---- finally NOT faster then justbob.

    The test drive in 2004. Guy who owned it was retired Navy Chief, worked at a high end used car lot, told me he would be out of town that weekend but since I was a Chief he would leave the keys for me, and Monday it was going out front for sale, and by the way it is blue. Blue? Typo, I thought, couldn't even find a picture of a blue one online. So, he e-mailed me that Thursday. I blow it off, figure if it is blue, it must be that ugly baby blue Ford color. Only blue Marauders I can find online are Suzuki Marauder motorcycles. Friday, blow it off, same reason. Saturday, nah, screw it, Marauders only come in black. Sunday, what the heck, I'll go look. Call the place, like 20 miles away, say I'm coming to scope it out. They said "Oh, you're Casey? We will park it out front, so-and-so said to give you the keys." I'm on the right hand side of divided street, roll past the dealer to turn left and I see it, shining like....justice. It was the longest friggin' light ever. Turned green, whipped a u-turn, pulled in and got the keys. Exited the parking lot, stomped it, made a u-turn about 100 feet up, made another u-turn at the light I'd been trapped at 10 minutes ago, flew into the parking lot, jumped out and bound into the store and yelled "SOLD!" Came back the next day with 23 grand and a used Cavalier they gave me a grand for and that was all she wrote. Met the seller, I clearly remember him telling me "they only made about a thousand blue Marauders so it's kind of rare." Had 22 thousand miles on it. He wanted something smaller to tow behind his gigantic motorhome. I thanked him, went home, and shortly thereafter discovered mercurymarauder.net and found out they had already quit making Marauders and they made way less than a thousand blue ones.
    I could have shortened this, but I don't think it would have captured how I truly felt. All the events and people, all are special, I cannot single out one and say that is my best memory like the memory of day one, the day I almost didn't go look at it because I thought he was mistaken about the color.
