    For such a good car I seem to have a few nit-picky problems. Was driving home yesterday and the accelerator cable broke loose from the accelerator peddle. Had to get it towed to a shop because I too dang big to fit under the dash...lol

    Is it a 6 cylider or V8? The cables are different. I am using a 6 cylinder cable on a V8 engine right now. It seems to be doing fine. The 6 cylinder cable is longer than the V8. (y)
