I went with Raven again...it's tough color to keep, but when it is clean, it sure looks great.

Apparently, they are going to pull the problem motor and install an ISF engine and track it for promotional use.

Damn that would be cool to see.

Glad to hear that they are going to give you a new vehicle. Kind of surprise that they would add on your aftermarket parts to it. Honestly I would never install anything aftermarket while there are problems with the vehicle, only because I know that I will be accused of causing the problem.

Usually when a manufacturer buys back a vehicle, they do not sell it (or parts from it) again.
