IngotSilverSnake Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Maybe in the fall/winter when the daily rain stops. My Shelby has never seen the rain and never will (as long as I own it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IngotSilverSnake Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Bad place to live if you don't want your ride to get wet. Ever...... Not true. I get a lot of good rides in the AM all summer long. In the fall, winter, and early spring there are long stretches of perfect weather with no rain at all. Do the same thing with my HD bike. Used to ride in the rain, can't stand it anymore. Plan to show the Shelby starting this fall. It is factory clean and perfect inside and out. I plan to keep it that way.

MyStang2010GB Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I do head over to Old Towne in Kissimme from time to time for the Friday Night American Muscle Cruise-in. Just went this past Friday and meet up with a co-worker who has a ZR1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopsgt500 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Cool I will let you guys know next time there's something going on. You late night riders or weekend warriors Sounds good. I work Thurs thru Sunday so my usual fun time is Mon-Wed. With some advance notice I can get a day off for some group cruises.

dufus Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Bad place to live if you don't want your ride to get wet. Ever...... Or stolen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IngotSilverSnake Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Or stolen. Not an issue for me. My Shelby is either locked in the garage, being driven by me, or in my field of vision at all times.

Does Florida have a lot of auto theft? Its a crappy drive to Cuba! We do in Texas because they take stolen cars to Mexico, and thats the end of them; they are gone forever. But the getting stolen and stripped market isnt like it used to be, I suspect because tracking parts on vehicles is so much more advanced than it used to be.

According to this article, FL is the number 3 state behind CA and TX. http://www.thecarconnection.com/news/1022369_states-with-the-highest-and-lowest-auto-theft-rates Not even close to CA though. Does not seem to have affected my insurance rates for the Shelby. All my vehicle rates are low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
