Checking in on you guys.

[Hack Goby]

who's still around and what are you driving? There's a Marauder near me with two hundred plus on it with a Mo's tune.

There's a blast from the past. I'm still driving the same 2 Marauders. Haven't been on your side of the state for quite a while.

Long time no see.

Still have the Marauder.

Daily driver is a 2010 P7B...for now. I've been lazily shopping Ford Flexes and may have found one down in SC...

I also have the '91 Country Squire and the '82 Cougar wagon (yep, wagon!) with the GT-40 headed 302/T5.

Around 4 years ago, I prepped my '03 for a trip to Maine from Michigan - last operation was changing oil and filter. I test drove it after the change to check for leaks. The computer went nuts, and engine noise began. It's been parked ever since. I assumed it had some sort of cam chains/guides failure. At least it didn't die on me 700 miles from home!

In Las Vegas, NV, I bought a retired Las Vegas Metro Police Department 2009 Police Interceptor and drove it back to Michigan - it's been my daily driver ever since.

Good to hear from you! We're still here and still enjoy our Marauders. Mr. Man has his Titan pickup and his '03 JPB. I have a Dodge Durango and my 04 SB purchased new in Oct '03.

[SilverPhoenix]

I kinda/sorta remember ya...think I met you at one of the Louisville meets. I still got my '03 SB; turned 180K on the odo right before Christmas last year. She'll turn 20 in April and I'll have owned her for 12 years in March. Plan to have the timing chain and guides replaced some time this year...was hoping I'd be able to wait until it hit 200K, but it's been making quite the racket on every other start up for about 6 months now.

Holy cow there's a blast from the past!!! Still have my Marauder, too. She will be 19 years old in March and has 55,620 miles. I have all the parts to do my Eaton Swap except for hoses and soft parts. My daughter better marry a gearhead 'cause he'll probably inherit mine. Good to see you again.

Owned mine since January of 2020; still my daily driver. Has about 62,xxx miles on it. Been slowly doing minor OEM+ modifications; I would like to see to converting the rear tails to ambers but it is currently on the backburner due to school. It's currently just converted to LEDs around back with a solid-state flasher to prevent hyperflash as well as allowing me to still run incandescent ambers up front.

I have plans to paint correct and ceramic coat the paint. Looking forward to that because it's probably one of the best things that can be done to protect the paint for a daily-driven car.

I am still Maraudering in the good old summertimes. Nearing 40K miles.

[MMBLUE]

Yo Hack. Been Marauderless for years. I check in every now and again.

Hey, all! My Marauder hasn't been running for a few years due to an undiagnosed spark/fuel issue, and the matte-black paint job has been totally destroyed by weather and the California sun. So now I have a 2019 Ford Taurus SHO PP on its way from Texas with only 14,000 miles. It's the lowest-mileage SHO I've seen so I jumped on it. Already ordered a set of 20" black powder-coated, five-spoke wheels and a police interceptor grille for it. The SHO is AWD, so it's perfect for spur-of-the-moment drives to the snowy mountains just an hour outside of LA. Should have it within the next 48 hours!!!

It's been 20 years since I got my Marauder, so it's time for a new fast sedan. The BMW M5 priced out at over $150,000 and the AWD Dodge Charger only comes with an under-powered turbo-V6 which is a whole second slower than the SHO. Meanwhile, my Ford Focus Electric's battery has been fading so I gave it to my GF and bought a 2019 BMW i3s last summer to make my daily commute. The BMW i3s is quick and handles great (the 'S' is the performance version), but the SHO will be for road-trips with no charging-anxiety. With the right tune, the SHO should do 0-60 in 5.2 seconds.

Post pics of the SHO when you get it.
I have a black 2011 SHO. Wouldn't trade it for the world.

Afternoon,
I sold my trilogy about 8 years ago and bought it back 2 years ago. It has about 91k miles on it now and i've been just working on it slowly. Little issues spring up if the car dosent get driven.

Hi Paul, Still got my original 03, about 91k now, Lidio tune. Picked up an 04 Black, local about 10-11 years ago that needed lots of TLC, after original owner passed away, his son didn't take care of it. Saw him one morning driving it, waved to each other, read his obit a couple days later. Drove past his house about 1.5 years later and saw it for sale. Got it mechanically running, and took to Mo's for 4.10s and a tune. A few years later, thought that it was totaled after a p/u rode up the side over the whole passenger side, hit the rear tire and launched it, bumper snagged the A pillar and set his rear tire down on the w/s without breaking it and drove off the fender, landing upright. We all walked away uninjured. We both had to panic stop to avoid a couple of accidents ahead of us. He locked up his brakes, so no control. Drove the car 3 hours home, StateFarm recommended shop fixed it for more than I paid for it. Did a great job, had them paint rest of the car. Still driving it when not driving my 05 E150, 190k+.
