  1. Anti-rust treatment Mustang S650

    Every car/customer benefits from good rust protection unless you prefer a rustbucket to a solid body that lasts 30 years of service before it sees the shredder…But it seems like some players in the industry change the profit model with the push for electric and touchscreens when batteries and...
  2. Dark Horse poorly received??

    I can give you an answer while some non fanboys who drove Camaros , Corvettes , Challenger and maybe even 2008-13 M3 V8s are here…Because the Mustang is the sole survivor if you want a car with the combination of n/a V8 & manual and new car smell 👍 Hope some Ford guys are here and take some...
  3. Older guy with manual

    Rfox I would say the Tremec and the V8 are the only reason to buy a Mustang…Unless you go drag racing or have only one leg go for the manual as they are so much more FUN and you are in tune / have a connection between man & machine only a manual transmission gives !
  4. Anti-rust treatment Mustang S650

    Any gunk ? Look at any Volkswagen as cheap as a Jetta and all hollow parts are not only flooded with wax as also the underbody is coated with some elastic I would say bedliner like material and painted with the color your car came with 👍 Ridiculous that Ford would cheap out on cars for certain...
  5. Anti-rust treatment Mustang S650

    You would think especially the north american cars with the long cold winters and cinders they put on the roads during these potentially 6 months would get the underbody protection…
  6. Dark Horse poorly received??

    Ford should have learned the lesson from the Mach 1 that was a GT with Performance Pack and Tremec for a huge premium and the DH even charging a heavier coin and then having the glitchy touchscreen instead some real performance increases like less weight , more steering feel and even better a...
  7. So, I got to drive a Dark Horse today

    I think only reason to buy a DH is to get the Tremec which should be stock on all 5.0’s as also the additional coolers for trans and diff as uf you go A10 it will still overheat on trackdays…But 10 grand for tremec and a few oil coolers and forged rods is rich considering Chevy got 7 grand for...
  8. Recurring Infotainment and Connected Services Issues in S650 Mustang

    Ford and other manufacturers need to bring back buttons and knobs for major functions as it will be real fun to operate these vehicles when years from now , out of warranty , these touchscreens stay dark and you cant even operate your heater/ac on a bitter cold or hot day…
  9. So, I got to drive a Dark Horse today

    Like the Mach 1 before the DH is nothing more than a expensive package that should have included in every GT…The Tremec and the additional oil coolers needed if you actually want to track the car !
  10. Mustang March 2024 & Q1 Sales & Production: 5,821 Sold / 6,337 Produced

    Posting facts is not negative at all as they had an article on car & driver that Ford made 1400 bucks on each car sold in the blue oval ICE side but each EV sold contributed to a $130000 loss…As far as Camaros and Challengers they are gone and I hope the Mustang stays therefore I hope Ford makes...
  11. Dark Horse on fire and burns down (from stuck clutch)

    What you are saying makes a lot of sense ! When I had my SS1LE new I was looking for the powersteering fluid 🤣 as I could not find it since it was electric finding out brake and clutch reservoir were the same…
  12. Mustang March 2024 & Q1 Sales & Production: 5,821 Sold / 6,337 Produced

    It does not look too good for Ford with all the recall$$$ , lots of unsold 2023 F150 and no interest in EVs and same 10 year old all new gen 7 Mustang as sales/profits are down only saved by fleet sales that were up…Of course raising the prices as Ford and greedy dealerships did did not maker...
  13. Challenger or S650

    I think the challenger/charger where based on the MB E class from 2002 which would be the W211…The front double wishbone was taken from that period S class if I remember right but I think the net knows more…🤣
  14. Dark Horse on fire and burns down (from stuck clutch)

    Glad you are ok when your Mustang literally turned into a dark Horse and gave blue amber a new meaning…Hope you dont have to wait for your money too long as the dashcam wont be able to show what started the fire and the malfunction of the clutch…At least it is totaled and you dont have to worry...

  16. Challenger or S650

    Depending what you did with them…On warm days on the track they killed the power and went limp not to overheat and driven fast they liked to swap ends without much warning…That is why they went mid engine but forgot to install the manual…But the AARP crowd prefers autoboxes anyways…🤣The last Z06...
  17. Dealership woes - Am I expecting too much?

    I think you meant to say a little bit of understeer to keep you out of trouble because oversteer gets you into trouble…I also understand why you bought a 197 Boss 302 ! After a testdrive of a C8 I thought that feels like a comfortable cruiser and not exciting like a sportscar should…My then...
  18. Dark Horse on fire and burns down (from stuck clutch)

    Looking at all the problems with recalls and such all I can say 8D must work real well…🤣 Hope the guy whose Dark Horse literally turned into a Darkhorse got his insurance money by now or a replacement from Ford if he wants another one…
  19. Dark Horse on fire and burns down (from stuck clutch)

    Quality is a culture of pride , loyalty and dedication...Unfortunately today it is replaced by profits at all costs and shareholder mentality...The pendelum has and will swing back when costs for warranties and recalls are greater than the savings created by cutting corners and sourcing the...
  20. Just received a welcome letter from Ford Australia

    Thanks for the info ! The cheapest I have seen the DH was actually in mexico for equivalent of $75K but with I think if I remember right somewhere between 16 or 19% tax included ! In the US the prices you see are sticker plus roughly 10% tax/license depending on state...Either way a Mustang is a...
