So when I finally decided on a SRT10, I was looking for a truck that would be able to haul my Mustang if I decided to do so. I looked at tons of jacked up F250s and Excursions. I really enjoy the looks of those, but man they where boring to drive. Having previously owned a supercharged F150, I knew there was more fun to be had in a truck.

Here is my stang. It's a 2009 Roush Blackjack, 1 of 47 built.

Of course since it's such a limited number, you leave it stock right? Car has a built motor, cams, VMP supercharger, full BMR suspension front to back and should put down around 600 to the tires. I think I will keep it tuned down to around 550ish until I get some bigger injectors as my 52s are almost maxed.

Stock motor held up 480 RWHP for years, I was always told 500 was the limit for a 3v car. So once my new blower got here, I put that limit to the test, turns out it was true lol, at 502RWHP I broke a rod and literally shot a piston out the side of the block and took out part of the head on the dyno. Had my hood not been open, it would have ruined it.

This is my 90 model LX coupe I had, I sold it to buy the truck. I do miss it, as it was my first mustang and I looked at probably 50 before buying this one because I had to have a clean car. Nearly everything I had seen was hacked up turned into a race car, then back to street car, or somewhere in between.

It had a full drag suspension and just a little heads, cam, intake 302. Car went some 11s on motor with a 5 speed. I had a nitrous kit that I almost had installed, but my controller had a short, and while waiting on a new one, I ended up buying a turbo kit so I pulled all the nitrous stuff off. Sold the car before ever installing the turbo kit. Should have been an easy 10 second daily drivable car with air, heat, stereo, etc. Perfect street car!
 
This was my 2004 F150, it had a supercharged 5.4L and a built trans with a 3000RPM stall. Truck was good for some high 13s, but it was big and comfortable and surprised quite a few cars.

Here is my 94 Ford Lightning. I had always wanted one of these when growing up, so when I found this one as clean as it is, I had to have it.

I couldnt find a stand alone shot of my cobra, but here is all 3 stangs, and yes I had 3 black stangs at one time. At least I had different body styles lol

The cobra was an ex SCCA race car, had a crazy griggs racing suspension under it. It would scrape everything, and even got hung up in a parking lot where it was being repaved.

I have had tons of cars over the years, 40 or so I think, but these are the ones I wish I could have kept.

Haha, a little brand bashing never hurt anyone. The 10 is by far the fastest truck I have owned. It really reminds me of a truck version of my roush at just how fun it is to drive. Sure my old mustang went 11s on motor but that's all it did, it was fun, but it couldn't take a curve to save its life.

Having had several sport bikes over the years I really enjoy some quick highway blast, and that's something the 10 is awesome at!

I liked my black truck because of the room, and well I obviously have a thing for black cars. My lightning wasn't anything special, but to me it was. It was the truck I wanted as a kid, but man it doesn't have half the room the 10 has.

My cobra handled like it was on rails, the previous owner had built it strictly for road race events. So very minor power mods, geared low, and a stupid sxpensive suspension. The downside, it was an actual race car suspension and it would beat you to death and made all kinds of noise.

My roush is amazing. It handles great, it rides great, it's fast, and it's a blast to drive. I remember seeing the blackjack articles in a magazine and thinking man that car is perfect. Black, with black chrome wheels, with black suede interior. It was my dream car, and happy I could make it mine!

I have had several camaros and trans ams as well... The fbodys never did much for me though. They all look a like, and the interiors suck.
 
Nice looking rides.
I've had a few Mustangs.
1966 Coupe
1993 LX 5.0
1994 Cobra
2003 GT

I still keep my eyes out for a clean 1993 5.0. That was such a fun car.
 
Nice rides. I have had so many fox bodies back in the day I can't even count them.
 
Did someone say foxy ladies?
