F150Duke,
Very good write up and review, imo...
Those rep wheels look titz.
And, I like the 'Stang in the Bubble. Held up by props, or air?
GL, mD

Thanks! I figured it was my way of helping others who have helped me. The bubble is held up by air that is recirculated through a filter 3 times every hour. That keeps things from smelling stale, getting dusty, or something hitting the car.

Wheels look great!
However, that bubble is awesome! That is what I need to avoid hail damage!!! I've been hit too many times--wonder if it's sign....

Thanks; thought so. I have seen them advertised in car mags but wondered if they really worked well. I could put a couple of my scoots under one and give the garage mice a really good home while we are in absentia.

We need some pics of your Mustang when it is out and about next Spring.

Yeah it's fantastic. I detail the heck out of it (3 coats of wax, detail inside, hand wipe down the engine bay) and there isn't a spec of dust in the spring. It says it only uses 3 cents of electricity a day. Who knows if that is true but I don't see that big of a spike on my bill. My Dec, Jan bills usually jump because it gets dark so early here and we have Christmas lights outside.

Why wait for spring for more GT500 pics?
