updated my Coyote swap thread.

I was really really really tempted to buy a brand new S/C that came up for sale on a FB group for my 2015 Coyote donor. But I figured I've got enough "irons in the fire" if you will, and really should get the truck running and driving before I make the project even bigger

only about a third of my time so far is wiring. Don't know that I have the mental capacity or patience to go 25-30 hours continuously just in wiring

Traveled from Houston over to Hattiesburg, MS, today in the old ‘05 Escape - the odometer clicked past 210,000 miles a little past Lafayette. I’ll need to put new tires on it soon and I’m debating whether it’s a good investment with that high of mileage. The thing still runs great, but it would be just my luck for it to have some kind of catastrophic failure just after sticking money into a new set of rubber for it.....😖

Moved along pretty well this trip - I got lucky both ways and hit the bridge in Baton Rouge before it got too congested. I seem to have a knack for hitting that thing right around 5:30 for the joy of rush hour....😱

GPS took me back to I-12 from Hattiesburg on a series of twisty backroads - actually saved me about 10 miles total and was a really nice drive! Would have been fun to have taken that ride in one of my Mustangs!
