Thanks Sandy,
Besides missing the prime driving weather I am more worried about the fact that I have only been able to put 600 miles on this motor and car in a 17 months. Not all fo that was Roush's fault as it spent 6 months under car cover during my house remodel but between July of 08 and Nov of 09 it was in the Dealer 9 times for several weeks at a time due to one problem after another. The rear main seal, sheared distributor pin, problems with the fuel injection etc. By the time I will get it back I have but 6 months left on the warranty to try to see if any other problems develop. This time they say it overheated and the cylinder walls were "scored" so the block needed a bit of a bore and hone, replacing the pistons, rings, seals, valve guides and I dont know what else. The car has NEVER overheated since I have had it as I have never been able to get a run longer than about 50 miles at one time. I may have to try moving thsi up the food chain if things don't improve soon. At the very least I wthink they should offer to extend the warranty but I dont know that that would ever happen.
Ron
