    Whats wrong with with a tuned Borla exhaust system?

    Wow, didn't know that was a real shelby offering. Such a departure from typical Shelby fashion. I would expect a nicely lowered truck with a street wheel/tire setup.

    Nothing is wrong with a "tuned borla exhaust" other than the price I guess.
    But it looks like a bag of dicks on that truck. For the Shelby name, and that price tag, they could have incorporated it much nicer than the old 1998 "dual rear exit" that you'd expect from say... Gibson haha.

    You know there are people who think trucks serve a purpose and a 4x4 with ground clearance fits the bill.

    yup, those are called 4x4, FX4, and Raptor

    It's just not.. Shelby-esque

    I can appreciate all trucks... lowered or lifted

    back in 2001-ish


    2005-ish


    2013-ish...ugh


    current... geez I need more SuperDuty pics in my photobucket

    It never ceases to amaze me the money that people blow on these vehicles to them drive them like a daily grocery getter. I've "rented" several ballistically expensive cars (Vipers, Ferraris, Mercedes, etc) but have never owned one. Heck My Navigator is the ony luxury vehicle Ive owned and it is just a grossly over priced Expedition! lol Rest assured if I had the coin ($100k) I wouldn't have bought that. I would have taken $50k and bought one of the cross plane V8 Mustangs instead. But to each their own.

    Some people rationalize it by only having one vehicle at a time. They'll daily drive a track car and lie to themselves that they are enjoying it. I don't really get that either...

    I would have taken $50k and bought one of the cross plane V8 Mustangs instead. But to each their own.
    The GT350 is definitely the Mustang to get. I want one, but there's other cars I want more first :laughing:
