Yessir! We replaced a bearing on one side and brake pads all the way around. Made it home with no issues.

I've had two guys this week with 5.0s ask me how I like my Ecoboost. I could see the envy in their eyes

Buyer's remorse?

True, every time I drive it, wish I had the 6.2 with a blower.

Took off from a light a bit ago and heard a really good sound in exhaust. It was an awesome throaty V8 sound. I started looking around to see where it might be coming from and there was nothing that could be making such sweet music. Then I realized it was my sweet little 5.0. I gave it a little more throttle so I could hear some more. Remorse? Not hardly.

Yesterday I hammered it after I turned on to one of the main roads in town. I go by some guy and he is waving an arm at me out his window. I just accelerated hard to 45 (speed limit) bite me Why have an exhaust if you don't listen to it lol. I had someone roll their window up on me too... that never gets old
