  1. Leave it alone

    I hear ya Brother. I'm 17 trapped in an old man's body at 75. I used to love leaving "Patches" in my old affordable junkers when I could afford recaps at $20 tire. Now I have a '25 GT Convertible, 6 speed manual that will smoke 'em but at around $200 or more, I leave traction control on. My...
  2. Hagerty Insurance

    I have Hagerty for my '25 GT Convertible at around $1100/year. I also have two other vehicles for my wife and I. Averaging less than 4K miles/year. It mainly goes to Dairy Queen, car shows or a quick romp through out mountains and is garage kept.
  3. Active Exhaust - Meh?

    I have a '25 GT with the manual and active exhaust. Quiet mode is what I set it at when I want to listen to my tunes better. Sport is loud enough to show off a little to my Mopar buddies. There is a definite difference between quiet and track or sport mode. I generally just drive in Sport Mode...
  4. 24 GT performance pkg auto or 24 GT base 6 speed?

    I'm a retired LEO and in our small, rural retirement area I would probably get a break from any LEO if stopped, but I like to avoid that situation. Friends make fun of me because I drive my '25 GT with a 6 speed manual within or very close to the speed limit. I'm 75 and only my wife knows when I...
  5. 24 GT performance pkg auto or 24 GT base 6 speed?

    I had a '24 GT with auto, no active exhaust or PP. Bored me to tears. Bought a new '25 GT Convertible, 6 speed with active exhaust. I love my new one. Open the exhaust and go thru the gears as I choose. Driving is fun again for this 75 year old who still rides a BMW motorcycle as well.
  6. Automatic or 6-speed - honest feedback

    I bought an almost new 689 miles '24 Mustang GT Convertible with the 10 speed auto. It was just another car with a lot of horsepower and driving it got boring, for ME. My wife rolled her eyes when I made believe I was shifting a stick making those varrooomm noises. The paddle shifters weren't...
  7. Questions about oil change

    I can watch my Ford dealer at their Quick Lane center do the oil changes thru a large window in the customer lounge. In and out in less than an hour, about $100 for full synthetic and my back doesn't hurt! For the oil filter on all my vehicles, motorcycles, boat, tractor etc, the past 60 years...
  8. Official MOLTEN MAGENTA Mustang S650 Thread

    I like my Molten Magenta '25 GT Convertible, but loved the few Rapid Red vehicles I've had over the years. I really love the 6 speed manual in my new GT though. Makes driving fun again.
  9. How expensive is your oil change?

    I let my Ford dealer do it at their Quick Lane center, about $108 for full synthetic oil change and I can watch them do it. In and out in about 45 minutes.
  10. Hey Ford!

    I don't think the manual has the remote start feature. Haven't tried it yet I would think with most people leaving their car in 1st gear with the parking brake set would be a problem if it had remote start.
  11. Hey Ford!

    My '25 Convertible with manual does unfortunately have stop/start.
  12. Hey LETHAL, you out there

    Coincidentally, I drove my previous Mustang to the Big Lynn Lodge last year about this time for a rally with my motorcycle club. Wife just had shoulder surgery so riding the bike was out. We'll be going again this year. I heard 226A might be one lane in some areas but Little Switzerland is open...
  13. Hey Ford!

    Wow, I really lucked out and ordered my '25 GT Convertible, see avatar, on October 16, 2024 and received it at my dealership in Murphy, NC exactly two months later, December 16, 2024. So far after 7 months of ownership I'm still in love with it. Yes, it was expensive, but at 75 (married to the...
  14. My first monkey wrench

    I got a "Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power" message with the little wrench in the bottom right of my '24 Lariat 5.0. Took it to the dealer and they said it was a GSM, with a TSB of 25-2045, Gear Selector Module which of course isnt in stock, to come in 10 days from last Thursday around...
  15. Which setting is your favorite one for the adjustable exhaust?

    I live in the N. GA Mountains so usually drive in Sport Mode with the accompanying steering and exhaust. Change to quiet exhaust if I want to hear the oldies better. When trying to be cool I set it to track exhaust in front of onlookers because i'm 75 and feeling cool is fun! Varooom!
  16. Need your expert eyes! Stripes for Molten Magenta GT?

    I have a '25 GT Convertible. My wife and I would pick #1. We discussed putting stripes on it so thanks for the info and examples. Not sure if we'll put stripes on at all but #1 would be a good fit for us.
  17. Our S650 HP compared to the C8.

    I'm not a drag racer so my Mustang GT, although not as fast as a C8, is more comfortable and driveable, IMO. A friend has a new C8 and getting into it is like riding in a go-kart. I do like the looks of the C8, very cool but I'm happy with my GT.
  18. What music do you like to blast while driving your Mustang?

    Beach Boys Car and Surfing songs like I did in my '59 Impala convertible in the mid 60s with the top down, cruising Miami Beach to Ft. Lauderdale. Any oldies are also played: Four Seasons, Motown etc.
  19. First oil change dealer put wrong engine oil.

    My dealer in Murphy, NC did the same thing twice for my Ford Escape oil changes, put 5W-20 instead of the 5W-30 I requested. Both times it was late in the afternoon and the second time when I complained to the service manager they were willing to change it, but really don't trust them now. Went...
