Normally I really prefer the fastback Mustang, but this is a beautiful car.

Oh... yes! 100% agree those lines are better than the Fastback we grew accustomed to see.

5 fave gas-powered engines. Had to figure a Shelby Cobra, and the GT40 engines would make the list right?

Old Sammy boy made a nice little profit on his investment. I don't really like the color, but I sure wouldn't pass it up. Beige is best suited to couches, and drapes, don't get me wrong, it's better than that bright yellow I've seen Ferrari's wear, but I think the LaFerrari would look amazing in a nice midnight blue, with just a suggestion of really small metal flake.

Why some Mechanics are leaving the business. And/or, why some .. independent mechanics are going out of business:

I think I've seen this at a couple of shops I've used. One is an independent in town. ALWAYS has 6-8 cars on the left side of his lot. Another one is a Monro off of a heavily trafficked secondary road. It also ALWAYS has 6-8 cars at the rear of the lot, filling-in to the right edge.

I can't think of a single independent shop, that I don't see a few "extra" cars hanging around. Of course you never really know why those 4 or 5 cars parked in the lot, but with a full lot, and full bays, you have to figure some of the cars are done and waiting to be picked up.

I really like the El Camino, and the blue Chevy C/K10. I like old pickups that have been hot rodded.

I'm not a truck guy .. but I saw a Motor Trend article in my Inbox about V8s still available in full-size trucks. The article is below. What I liked was this engine bay shot of the Ford F150 Raptor-R engine bay. Look at the size of that air intake!
