I've been around for a while, had a new SRT4 back in the day, 300ZXTT, firebirds, 86 RX7 etc. Took a sabatical from cars to ride motorcycles for almost a decade, now my kids are getting older and doing activities so I need to be able to pick them up and drop them off here, there, and everywhere. The Fiesta ST was the tool for the job. Test drove lots of other older "sporty" cars including available old SRT4s... they were all beat to death... I wanted to start from a clean slate, something I wouldn't be dealing with everyone else's mal-mods... I need stone cold reliability, fun, good gas mileage, and the ability to haul 4 kids in a pinch.
I plan on installing a hitch <gasp from the crowds> and hauling my son and I's mountain bikes all over the DFW to hit as many DORBA trails as is possible next year. We are rocking KTM bicycles. Son got 3rd overall in the DORBA Fall XC series for the 10U class, plan on beating that next year![[deviltail]](/images/smilies/deviltail.gif "Devil Tail [deviltail]")
. If anyone is a fellow mountain biker lets ride!
As for car mods... maybe muffler delete... Other than that it'll stay mostly stock. My son in 6ish years will probably inherit it as his first car, then we can play with it![[8D]](/images/smilies/cool.gif "Cool [8D]")
