So there I was. Following my wife home late lat night---she in her Carribbean Blue G35 sedan and I in my DTR MM. My wife is always afraid of hitting a deer at night so she never drives over 35mph. We entered the entrance ramp of I75 and in a flash she was gone! What in the world was she thinking? Then it accurred to me that she thought she was 17 again driving her 1972 Mach 1. I punched the MM for the first time and boy was I surprised. Hit 80 in a heartbeat. She must have thought that I was not interested in racing because she backed of the G35. Bad move. Darn near ran the MM up her tail pipes. I can see me explaining to the insurance company how I totaled 2 $30,000 cars. But it was fun.

Good run my man...did you happen to leave the "Overdrive" off when you punched it up? If so, you really felt it run like it should. It feels like a freight train when it pulls.
Did it again a few minutes later changing lanes to pass slower traffic. Both times came close to eating smaller cars for lunch. Gotta love those 4 wheel disc brakes! I was used to driving a 2001 Crown Vic. Peppy, but not hard acceleration like the Marauder. Had to floor it (the Crown vic) and hold it down for a while. I can't imagine how the guys with modified Marauders keep from running over slower traffic. 
Sorry? Never mind.... that's a bad thing.
