New guy with a Mazda2, Toyota MR2, Ford Focus, Ford Galaxie....

So I have a lot cars. The Mazda is mine, the Focus is my wifes, the MR2 is for the weekend, and the Galaxie is for the rest of the weekend. My main focus for eco modder is going to be the Mazda. I think that I would like to do the simple body mods for increased aero. That would be the start. The focus might be next but for that I might just start with the factory aero bits that come on the SFE model. Thats all for now.

The MR2 is a 2001 Spyder. Yes, I do believe that it has electric power steering. This is my second one, first was a 93 NA, and I have only had this one for about 6 months.

The Galaxie is a '66 Convertible. It is a lot of fun. It is need of some work but it is pretty good shape.

One of my best friend's in high school had a '66 Gal 'vert.
His was burgandy w black interior. He drove pretty wild sometimes.

Once he WHEELED around a 15mph curve much faster; all 4 hubcaps went a flying, and because their were many in the car; we all shared going in different directions to find them.

Oh! The craziness of teenaged years!
