New 2016 BRZ owner!

What's up all, just traded in my diesel truck for a 16' limited BRZ. Still going through the 1,000 mile break in period mainly daily driving the car. I also have a 2015 Mustang GT Premium w/ track pkg as a weekend warrior.

Both the cars are bone stock aside from window tint/debadge on the BRZ. Will post pics of both soon..

Here is my 16' BRZ

Here is my 15' GT

Nice cars. You may miss the torque of the diesel.

I always say this and always will. These cars look beautiful stock! Clean ones will be hard to find in the future and be sought after.

Anyways, great cars and welcome aboard!

Welcome! You planning on pulling the trailer with the BRZ or 5-0?

Thanks for all the replies guys. Yeah I am going to miss the F450, but I am definitely not going to miss the payments on a 70k+ commercial truck, heh.

I also have a 2014 Yamaha FX Cruiser SVHO jet ski for the summertime. The cars load carrying capacity is right at what the ski and trailer weigh combined on the GT.

The mustang is extremely expensive and labor intensive for everything so I don't know which I am going to go into first.
