I present to you, The Mercury Marauder's 4th of July Parade

[Chayton]

hey all,


before I go any further I just wanted to say I appreciate the help and support of everyone in this community. I had no idea it was possible to fall in love with a car. T I really hope you enjoy this, and I apologize in advance if the music is not your taste. There is a handful of expletives in this video, so you've been warned. If you are sensitive to that kind of stuff then you definitely can mute the video and play your favorite song in the background, although you will be missing out on the full experience. If you all could watch this with an open mind and provide feedback I would be forever grateful. I really hope you guys like it :)

And for all the west coast folk: you guys rock! thank you so much for making this happen. I remember years ago thinking how bad ass would it be to have a bunch of marauders in our parade. You literally made my dreams come true.

Good to see a Marauder gathering, maybe a little bio on each car/driver. How many cars participated six or eight?

I liked the video.

Cheers

[Ms. Denmark]

:bows::bows: Soooo nice! You West Coast guys know how to do it. (Just one minor thing...it's a Mach 1 engine, not cobra. ;) ) Great job, Chayton! Hope you make this an annual event. You all looked amazing!

[Spectragod]

Decent vid, not really my taste in music, and really, I figured there would be some burnouts, hole-shots, something with all the nitrous purging going on.

[MGDriver]

Had to use a proxy server to watch it because the video is blocked in this pathetic country so it took forever to load.

Great way to represent though! Not my taste of music either and I also expected a bit more smoke show action but that's just me.

[marauder21]

Pretty cool chill video. I liked it lol

Aside from the announcers inaccuracies, nicely done

CHAYTON,

That ROCKED!

Nice job... While some of us OLD guys would have liked to hear Frank Sinatra, "I did it my way" regarding the Marauder (please know I am completely joshing here...).

GREAT JOB!

Loved how you pulled it together from the previous version. GREAT IMPROVEMENT. As with Art and Cars, perfection, especially in the eyes for the viewer, is fleeting-- but this is AN AWESOME VIDEO!

I have the STILL PHOTO's I promised you, and feel like a lout I haven't gotten them to you sooner.

[1Marauder]

PS and to all -- this was a great event Chayton pulled together. We cruised 20 miles to a SONIC DRIVE IN, and it was AWESOME!

[Lowndex]

You do our Marauder owners proud!

I knew you guys would bust my balls over it lmao. No one in faartys little benicia knows what a quad can 4 valve is, let alone a mach1. It only made send to write COBRA MOTOR for the announcers script so mama Betsy in the crowd can go Oooh hody towdy that aint no grand Marquis... Thanks for all the kind words guys!

Maybe another Marauder vid done, someday, with Dick Dale's "Misirlou" as the soundtrack? I'm just new to the MM scene, but the theme from "Pulp Fiction" seems particularly well suited to Marauder badassery . . .

Well done. I didn't know Benicia did a 7/4 parade. Haven't been to that town in probably 20 years

[sflrainmaker01]

Hey, great job man!
I loved zooming on the cars in the side view mirror :cool:
Way to represent :beer:

[1Marauder]

Need to start planning 7/4/2016 parade.

We all need to turn our FOG lights on... pick a formation, at end we'll Turn-in toward judges, and every other car can jump out and open hood... need someone there to photograph, etc...

Loved meeting at the church like building first! and Sonic After.

Also we can give more stats on cars to individual cars to judges

Love the video, thanks for sharing!:beer:

I have a number of these you can have for the parade this year. Or buy them here: https://www.flagline.com/flags/usa-car-flag Made in USA so more expensive than the ones you find at Walmart.

Not sure my fiance will let me come this year.
