Pretty common issue. When putting the top up latch the hood with the windows down, then immediately unlatch it. Roll up the windows with the roof unlatched - less friction to overcome. Works almost every time. Some silicone lubricant doesn't hurt.

My two cents: Pros: Some women seem to enjoy being driven around in them (my wife prefers a wind screen to help keep her hair from beating the hell out of her without needing a clip or a hat. I guess I could drive slower, but that’s not likely.) Raw, classic, unbuffered driving experience...

I've been here since I ordered my '24 before production and I'm grateful for all of the tips, tricks, and fixes (Hein's wheel well hole fix and so many more). I gloss over the BS and keep trying to learn and contribute if I can add to the conversation. I can't wait for my driving season to...

I agree with Skye. I took mine out of storage yesterday with 4% on the OLM. Once I turned it off Columbus Day weekend that was it for the engine. I stabilized the fuel, put a battery tender on it and checked for rodent nests from time to time (found 1 even with the ultrasonic and light...

Good luck! Don't settle for anything more than $5/month. Keep telling the robot overlords no until you get a human than will make you a deal.

Time to renegotiate and cut that bill in half! They offer $8.49 as a first offer in negotiations. Decline it and they will come back with $4.99. See if you can get the $3.99 they are advertising now.

I received this offer in the mail for $4/month and a free speaker/charger combo if I subscribe by the end of March: Link The speaker has a different design now, but here's a similar ad from 2025:

If you like your build enough to go into a dealership and order it, keep it. If you can handle the extra cost without it impacting your life, get the DH built the way you want it. If that means you need to wait a bit longer to save, so be it. It’ll be that much sweeter when you get it. I waited...

No, but you pay for one anyway with PP.

I am all about saving money, but this thread reminds me why I get my cars professionally detailed. I'd have back spasms for days trying to contort myself into the backseat. I'm good with a sweatshirt and a lower thermostat and no cable TV if it offsets details (and lawn maintenance).

I'm in Mass. with a GT convertible for summers only. I went with the PP just to get MagneRide - not for the track but for the terrible roads around here. It's your money, so you decide how much to invest in this toy. I loaded mine up as I already went the cheaper route with a V6 S197. I have...

Purchasing wiper blades would be a transaction, so I'm going to say you're good!

From the app: "Points* expire after 18 months of inactivity. To keep your account active, complete at least one transaction that either earns or redeems Points every 18 months." Need an oil change?

I've been using Star Tron Enzyme Fuel Treatment for years with no complaints. Nothing wrong with STA-BIL, I just like that Star Tron also acts as a cleaner. The blue bottle came highly recommended from my mechanic buddies and I've never had an issue after 6-7 months of storage with use in my...

Might be an uphill climb on that one but you can certainly give it a try. My battery was fine after I recharged it. No issues since. If you're worried about it take it to your local AutoZone or competitor and have them test the battery. If it feels then take it back to Ford. I hate taking...

Alternators maintain a charge, they're not designed to recharge dead batteries. Your best bet is to keep that extension cord going and keep the NOCO on there. If that's not going to work for your situation, literally remove the battery from the car and charge it in the garage up off the floor...

Same thing happened to my 24 GT vert. The car wants to draw so much power when charging from dead it never gets there. When it's this bad, you literally need to disconnect the battery from the car, then hook your NOCO up to the battery. My battery was fine after I charged it while disconnected...

It might be worth calling up local dealerships and asking if they use BG's Virtual Maintenance Advisor and steer clear if they do. Any platform made "for dealers to increase efficiency, productivity, and profitability" is bad news for the consumer.

Don't forget to remove the trunk lid latch lock release so the zombies don't get out. Use caution: some people have a particular set of skills. Skills they have acquired over a very long career.

Have you tried turning the car off and leaving the driver's side door open for a few minutes?
