Short answer: Yes. But in this video I go over the many reasons the Shelby GT350 makes for such a great daily driver. I talk about ride comfort, convince, etc. Also for my shameless plug, here's the link to my other channel "Texas Plinking": kzitem.info/rock/cMyVNd-RXN96XbUl152rNQ Thanks for watching!

You can put your sunglasses in that lined dash compartment too. Perfect fit for mine. And I agree on the manual trans. I drove only manuals for 30 yrs in Houston traffic, and only twice has it bothered me. Those were times I was in hour long backups due to major accidents. Love my 16 GT. It is a lot easier than my 87 to drive in traffic, and I drove that one for 24 years!

Good observation on the Manuel transmissions. We used to call them standard transmission because they were standard on all cars. Im 49. Everyone in my age bracket always had Manuels until we started having kids. I also don't think any of us bought this car to save fuel. We are averaging 11 right now. Mostly because it is new. We might get to 14 after we stop racing it everywhere. Legally and observing all speed laws of course ;)

Hey Brandon. Just checked out your other channel. I see that you recently got a Bushmaster ACR. What made you get the ACR as to say, a SCAR 16/17s? (I didn't watch those other videos yet, so you might've answered it there). The FN SCAR series are among my favorite American (Belgian) rifles.
@TexasRevving
6 жыл бұрын
Hey Kyle, thanks for checking out my other channel! To answer your question, I do love the SCAR a ton. Or any FN product for that matter. But I wouldn't want a SCAR in 5.56 personally. So the SCAR for me would be the 17S. And the reason I didn't get that is because most of the shooting I do is at a gun range that doesn't allow calibers larger than 5.56 at their tactical bays were I can rapid fire and really have fun. (I know, dumb rule) With that said, my friend picked up his SCAR 17S a few days ago and I helped him set it up. It is stunning and I would love to own one soon! On top of that, I really do love the ACR as well so it would be ideal to own both :)

Excellent info to know, appreciate the thorough review & feedback provided. Re: the Recaro seats, have you taken any long trips & if so how comfortable were they to/fro? Debating whether the partial leather/power seats might be better for a daily driver. To me the Recaro's look better & are lighter but I'm 6'3" height, 195lbs & 36" waistline so uncertain if the Recaro's or power seats might work better for me. The power seats are difficult to find for a 17 (since limited availability) but are an available option for any 18. I've sat in the Recaro's & they seemed alright to me but I'm not used to racing seats & have generally always had a power seat in my cars. Prolly makes sense to find one with power seats to compare. Do you have a wrap or comparable on the front end & hood or a nose mask to protect from rock chips, etc. I've always had nosemasks for my vehicles but would hide that awesome looking front end. Uncertain what it costs to get a wrap done. Peace/out
