Smile Just an option.

I was just proposing an option for those that are not inclined (for what ever reason) to work on their own cars.

There aren't too many Ferrari/Lambo/Viper drivers that work on their own cars. I was just trying to show that a Cobra can be owned/driven/maintained like any other 'Super Car'.

You don't have to get your hands dirty and bust your knuckles, if you don't wan't to. But, just like I wouldn't take any other Super Car to Jiffy lube, I wouldn't take my Cobra there either.

Compared to what a Ferrari/Lambo or even Viper would have to pay to get what I'm getting, would be considerably more money. I feel I'm getting every bit of my money's worth. And my car runs like a 'Super Car'!

And I know if I kept a trunk full of spare parts and all the tools to fix everything I could fix it myself on the side of the road. Those days are long over for me. I'm no fe machanic. I think I'll just pay a pro to do it. Just like you would if you had a new Benz or BMW.

Good luck guy's, it was just something to ponder.

P.S. That's pretty close Pat, except it's 11 qts oil. I have a 9 qt Aviaid oil pan and the oil cooler & lines take another 2 qts!
