I guess you didn't know that you're not allowed to post about a new fbody purchase without supplying pics. It sounds great though- congratulations. How many miles?

The '98-'02 black ram air T/As are the meanest looking cars ever made bar none.

Have fun!

Awesome dude! Good choice on the Black T/A ! Be careful with it - there aren't many around so it better be well taken care of for the rest if it's life! Remember, not anything and everything's worth the gas to race out there... unless they're REALLY askin for it... I've learned that in the 3 weeks I've had mine... I'd be more aggressive if my clutch wasn't slippin like crazy though . Congrats and welcome!

Thanks for all the warm welcomes guys, I'll have pics up as soon as I can. Appreciate the warm welcome

With gas the way it is it was probably the WORST time to get a V8, but I had to have the thing when I saw it. Only mod right now is Corsa exhaust, sounds angry, I love it

I know how you feel! I just got my black SS last week. Everyone else around you becomes slower I've been a little gas-happy though, the mileage is starting to kill me! I've put about 800 miles on the car since I bought it three days ago Be gentle with her!

CONGRATS!!! Now go read the "Newbie Mod Mistakes" thread. So many lessons learned there. Also, I think there is one of the best mods. My warranty is up in 1 month and the modding will begin! Good Luck.
