So some people came off the thirdgen.org page and made a Facebook. Rules are simple, no bad tech advice and it's mainly just for tech. Now we wouldn't have to be that serious, but I think I would be a good idea. Quick responses and neat layout. What do you guys think?

It does sound like a good idea in theory, but as everyone has already had experience with, FB car pages are crap. The same meme's bashing Ford/Chevy/Mopar/Import/etc and the same questions over and over- how do I change my oil and where can I get some headers? you know like besides google?

As far as the 4th gens capabilities, I have been seeing more and more about them in Grassroots mag and people are noticing what you get for the money in them, so I think the popularity will take care of itself. And maybe the value will shoot up to more than four digits!

I've been shopping for another 4th gen recently and there are a lot of people out there who are convinced these cars are worth money ('98 SS with 95k miles for $14,700?). I sold a 2001 SOM SS with 35k miles on it about 2 years ago (when it was 2 years newer) for about $10,000 (not even getting into the cars I'm seeing for $34,500, etc). Anyway, prices are somewhere between "reasonable" and "stupid" these days. It's tough to consider a car a performance bargain when people are overpricing them by 50% or more. lol

And in other news, I found a new 4th gen that's headed for my garage. This one is going to be a basic fun summer/weekend car with some suspension mods....I'm sick of building cars and I'm sick of race cars. I just want a fun driver. Guess I'm getting old.

That's all I'm going to say for now. I'll post some info and pics once it's home....should be soon. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
