Post a picture you took today

I used to do yard work in the summer wearing pants and arm sleeves and spraying myself with bug repellent, none of which felt great when it's 90+°. This is the first year I've had my yard treated for mosquitoes and it's been fantastic. I used to treat it myself, but I never remembered to apply the stuff on a regular schedule and the granules I use lose their potency after it rains.
 
Tennessee as that too. Along with lacrosse virus,and encephalitis. And Tick borne stuff.
In the 30's we had Dengue,Malaria, and yellow fever. They dumped shitloads of DDT everywhere, and it went away. The birds and snakes came back in the 80's Asian Tiger mosquitos are the bad ones, the smaller local ones aren't bad.
I found the off, so I'll hit it again tomorrow.
 
I was out in the garage long enough to find a gas can, and got bitten at least 20 times. I forgot the off.

FN10 sighting!

Wonder if the guy in the Mark was posting: "Focus sighting!"

Ha!

Speaking of that generation Focus: I actually almost bought one brand new. I wanted a new affordable two-door, and they were increasingly rare. It came down to a fully loaded Focus or complete base model Mustang. I picked the Mustang, but I liked the Focus quite a lot.

God I love the cats eye DRLs, I feel like Mercury intended it this way but just wouldn’t commit!

Aren't they nice!

Though I don't think they ever got close to intending this. FoMoCo never really got into the amber DRL thing like GM did.

FWIW, I have never seen any reply to those "YOHB" posts. Nobody ever said "yeah, that was me".

They may take pictures of you...but where do they post them?


@XR7-4.6, I love your grille by the way; I much prefer it over that thick-framed design.

Mine was handed down to me but I do love it. I have actually driven this car in miles far more than I ever have the cougar and other than the recent problem with the electric throttle body it’s super reliable comfortable and easy to work on. I only wish it was a 2 door 5 speed!

So much of fords own literature in 87-88 showed it off it’s hard to believe they never did anything with it besides parking lights.

Thanks! Yeah I prefer it, I switched it back and forth twice recently but it was clearly the intended look. I don’t mind the “split” grille 94-95 design but I wish the fins at least went as high as hood level, it just looks too contrived in factory form.

Still don’t hate the stock grille but this is more palatable

It happened to me in the Facebook group a few years ago during morning rush hour.

I've also seen someone a couple of cars behind me take out his phone to record while we waited at a red light because of my sequential taillights. I remember the guy had a wide grin on his face after his initial surprise.

I seem to remember JL porting one, for great success.
That is a exploder pi, right?
 
From what I hear, that's what a bradford pear does to a local pear tree.

LMK, I have a line on a few 😆

Post a picture you took today

the black interior from my 90, and the spare crack free dash, is becoming available. Car is getting a cage in late October and the interior is getting stripped, and not reinstalled. Want to see it go to someone instead of going in the trash, so I'm posting it now to get the word out. Tell your...

Was it you or Oscar that was sitting on a sho manifold?
I started to tell Chandar8 e needed to add coatings, but I didn't think anyone would get it.Seems to me, waiting for coatings and titanium longtubes was it for his engine project. :(
