The original price was $100-$125. When Ford discontinued them, they were advertised in several car mags. A freind told me he bought one for his '86, paid $60 bucks. If I had only known they would have been such a hot item now.

I'm at a loss on this one ...
What's wrong with the stock one that's free?
I never really get above 75 so I guess the granny speedo suits me fine [Image: biggrin.gif]
Did you hear about the Lucas powered torpedo? It sank.
