Haha, love the responses from you all so far! I've been bitten by the mod bug in the past (numerous times actually). That said, I'm still in the honeymoon phase, and I'm not sure I'll really ever want more horsepower than the stock Z provides...

I'm a kid of the 80's / 90's so transformers were a big part of my childhood! I never really grew up, which I suspect is the case for many on this particular forum since we all gravitated to what is ultimately a really big toy...

I may eventually do some actual mods like intake / exhaust / etc, but for now, the slight mods from the previous owner and the (easily removable) vinyl Autobot sticker is sufficient for me

Default I think they would be better off.....

.......if they used the element of surprise more and transform from less imposing items; garbage trucks, lawnmowers, Septic system tank trucks,
food trucks, harvesters and other agriculturally specific vehicles....you get the idea, the real element of surprise........
