Thanks gang! Yup the fan blade with color is the new option and seat belt support near the seat was included, 2005-07 didnt have it, i spotted instantly when i sat in the car, the dealer dude was impressed that i noticed the 2008 differences.

My first car was a '78 Camaro with a 305 (an engine surrounded by metal) . A couple cars later when I got my '88 Mustang, I still had the Camaro and thought... "I'm glad I still can work on my Camaro" looking into the engine bay of the Mustang (an engine surrounded by metal with a bunch of wires all over the place). I look at engines now and say forget about it! It's going to the shop.

I know, still same concept... just to many things for me to screw up now.

HA! Got it, i know where you are getting at, i dont have to touch them for a long while since they are technology advanced and more reliable and less tweaks work needed than old 5.0's. wait and see in few more years, those 05-08 are amazing machines with few bolt on's that would go nuts on the streets which i'd like to avoid, better off doing it on tracks. I will of course purchase another 5.0, it has to be in clean condition and well taken care of, long time to find one as i would expect due to being year 2008 coming soon, they are ranging from 15 to 23 years old (87-93).. can't believe how time have gone by.
