BREAKING NEWS: Mr. Man gets an '03 Black MM

[Bluerauder]

He won't be stealing Ms. Denmark's Silver Birch anymore. Thought that this news called for its own thread.

Congrats Eric. :congrats: Sorry that I missed the "unveiling". Looks great. :up:


Thanks for arranging this meet Joe! We had a great time! It was great seeing everyone!

Eric's new ride an early 300A and KB #5 enjoyed their canopy parking together last night.

[Joe Walsh]

Eric's '03 is clean!

(I asked him if this meant that he sold the Nissan Titan, but he said: "No way!")

[ctrlraven]

Congrats Mr. Man.

[CBT]

Have Roy add it to the totalled list :lol:

doh!

nice man!

[Zack]

Maybe he wanted to start his own thread about HIS car.

[jflave]

Congrats Mr. Man, enjoy your new ride :2thumbs:

[J-MAN]

Looks very nice! Lets hear the details.

[Bigdogjim]

Maybe he wanted to start his own thread about HIS car.

Charlie is the offical info man for mm.net:)

Besides he did not go public with it until there were photo's of the car on the site so the "cat's out of the bag"

[Mr. Man]

First off thanks for keeping it under wraps til after the Yuengling meet Charlie. I have a feeling you were starting to put two and two together.:) Only person I let know I had it was Tommy from Sparta as I discussed some suspension goodies with him and he kept it under wraps(Thanks) He didn't even tell Paul(Blackened300a).

It's a May 29, 2002 build which according to Ford made it #187 of 11,052.

Bought it from a friend of a MM.net member in Pa. Car was originally the friends father's and when he passed away left it to the son. I think the father used it for local stuff as it only had 10,000 miles on it when he died. The son only put 6000 miles on it in 4 years and most off that was trips to see the NASCAR races in Richmond. So it only had 16,242 miles on it when I bought it. The owner was asking a fair price that I couldn't pass by. He is saving to by a Corvette of some sort. Car has a little under 16,800 now and will be used for local car/cruise nites and local MM meets. Carlisle will be about the furthest it travels. Ms. D's car will be the long hauler as it's already got 104K+ miles. Car has the typical paint issues for it's age. Interior still has that new car smell. Need to have the trans shifter looked at as it sometimes engages in D and sometimes N so something must be loose in there. Other than that it's in pretty good shape. Now for the modding. Might put a Trilogy on it some day but for now it will get the basics. God does it need a trans reschedule:mad2:. Probably get a K&N, suspension goodies from Sparta and Addco and some bling from Colex if he's still in business. Hoping Santa brings a big bag of $$$$:D

:congrats:

And you got the RIGHT COLOR ! :D

Oh, BTW, Mr. Man, CONGRATS! :up:

[PonyUP]

Congrats, great purchase especially with that low of mileage :banana2:

[Krytin]

Nice work Eric!!

[Bigdogjim]

I have a standing challenge with Herr Doom with the Titan. He won't meet my prerequisites though, it involves fresh snow fall, mud or hill climbing. I'd even offered to give him a big head start but he's afraid of Slayer. He's all show and no go.:D

No news there, Pops has been telling me that for years.... :D

[Big Black Beast]

Well, it's about time.

[Ms. Denmark]

Well, it's about time.+1^^^^ I agree! He is the one who convinced me I wanted a Marauder way back when. He's offered his support and advice all along the way. And he has been an enthusiastic MM.net participant, enjoying all the people and events right along with me. It's only fitting he now has a Marauder all his own...:burnout:Here's to many many years of driving it like you stole it Mr. Man!:beer:

[1stMerc]

F-in cool Mr. Man. Welcome to the collective.

I can see it now Saturday mornings in the driveway Mrs. D and Mr. Man his and hers wash buckets, shammies, sharing a water hose.
Two spotless shiny clean Marauders glizzning in the sunlight. So romantic.
The neighbors wondering why they both have those great big smiles on they're faces.

Ahh, the stuff dreams are made of.

Matter of fact/opinion i think you make the third couple with that color combination.
Wow, must be catching.

[Seneca]

Nice color choice... Lol.. Congrats!!!

Hmmm....mebbe I can decode it:
One of you is in a cheeleader costume, acting frisky, but the other one of you would rather catch some Z's and dream of Marauding. Coffee break. Someone is playing an old Atari game. Surprise, prostate check!
Close?

[Go2GuyFL]

Many congrats! Now here's another couple where the wife is driving the Silver Birch and the husband drives the Black (except our mileage is reversed). Enjoy.

BTW:
Our dynos showed the Black to be quicker than the Silver Birch.

I'd post the meaning but the powers that be would not be happy:D

We'll have to have his and hers grudge racing for doing household chores at MV9. I already know my DTR can blow the doors off Beep's LS8. :D

You will not meet up with Doomie to race hime down the 1/4 mile?

Yep! CHICKEN:flamer:

This is untrue, Doomie will not meet Slayer in the snow.

As for Paula she's throwing a lot of smack from her comfy chair so there maybe a date at Island one of these days:D

Mine had the same issue when brand new, just needs adjusting. Only thing that I took it back to dealer for.
