  1. Ford's Marketing Team at it Again

    My wife has a 2024 Lincoln Nautilus (yes, I am fully aware of where they come from). Apparently they are also uber sporty. I had no idea.
  2. Upcoming Ford Performance carbon fiber parts for S650

    Ive been involved with composite body and structural panels, both fiberglass and carbon fiber reinforced, for several decades. The use of carbon fiber reinforced materials keeps growing. The challenge is cost of course. To steal an old saying about speed...Weight reduction costs money, how...
  3. Any differences between 2024.00 (job1) and 2024.50 (job2) Mustangs?

    I ordered my GT Convertible maybe a week after you, sticker generated last week shows about $750 increase...500 for Dark Matter Gray and I think 250 base price. I am 99.5% sure I am protected at the order (lower) price. Supposedly being built this week.
  4. Any differences between 2024.00 (job1) and 2024.50 (job2) Mustangs?

    The price keeps going up...there's that.

    Yes, you know more about what I think and what I was saying than I do. Got it.

  7. Dark Horse Depreciation vs GT

    That's borderline insanity. I wouldn't buy a car right now if I couldn't pay cash or get a rate under the 5.3% that CD's & Money Market instruments are paying today.

    WTF? Did you read what you quoted me on ?
  9. Too Many Dark Horses going abroad?

    My Ford is a true Limited Edition. I probably should have just kept it in the plastic. I've destroyed it's future value. What was I thinking?
  10. Too Many Dark Horses going abroad?

    Again, what part of "Ford is a Global Company" do you not understand? Should Porsche only sell the GT3 to Germans? I'm sure they could still sell them all.
  11. So I Spent 2 Weeks with a Mach-E...

    The RWD , IC Engine Mustang is very likely going away at some point. So if that is the only thing you will accept as a Mustang, then the brand will disappear completely in a few years. Is that what you think Ford should do? Whatever comes after S650 will have more in common with the Mach E...
  12. So I Spent 2 Weeks with a Mach-E...

    My F150 has a 700 mile range with a full tank and if I somehow drive that far in one stretch I'm back on the road in 5 minutes or so with another 700 miles of range. There is simply still too little range with EVs if they expect to convert everyone in even the next 20 years. 200-250 miles of...
  13. Ford is doing some weird stuff with the '24 F-150

    I can see why they would do almost every one of those things and suspect the price increases aren't quite as bad as it would appear. In 22 I believe they made the base Lariat what was previously the first level "premium" level and the price increase was primarily due to that .

    They absolutely have their place in the automotive world, especially in and around cities.
  15. Upcoming FRAP downtime

    Unless something changes, my build should be next week, which is roughly 9 weeks after the order. It has said scheduled 4/29 week since late March. I got an "in production date of 4/16 a week or so ago, then got a new "in production " date of 4/26 yesterday...so I suspect it's maybe started...
  16. Did you notice an improved 0 - 60 time after switching to wider / stickier tires?

    That seems a bit optimistic. Is there even that much spread from a base GT non-PP to a DH HP?
  17. Expansion tank question

    The mold has sliding details to allow the part to come out once molded. That's just where the fixed and retracting steel mates. Perfectly normal.
  18. Too Many Dark Horses going abroad?

    If it was a limited edition package,, the badge would say "Ă—Ă—Ă—Ă—/2500". This topic comes up monthly on watch forums. Its obviously "limited availability" at the moment (which some cases can simply mean " can't seem to get them scheduled and built for some reason") and will likely be a " limited...
  19. Too Many Dark Horses going abroad?

    Ford is a global company, I mean my wife's new Lincoln was built in China. They have many regions to keep happy. Manufacturer: 1FA = USA, Ford, Passenger Car 3FM = Mexico, Ford, Multipurpose Passenger Vehicle Safety: 6 = Seat Belts & Front/Side Air Bags T = Seat Belts & Front/Knee Air Bags...
