You IT boys will never get it...Prices are going crazy and wages have not kept up...Thats the problem and also Ford charging crazy amounts of money for a product that has not changed at all since the end of 2014 when the S550 came out...DH is just another name for Mach 1 and that car was already...

Roadpilot if you made 9 times as much as you made 30 years ago I say good for you ! But I talk about regular people who work in transportation,industry,nurses,farmingetc...Real Jobs we need and depend on...Here wages have been stagnant at best no matter what the media says and the demise of the...

To put it all into perspective a nice Fox Body 5.0 GT hatchback or LX trunk was full optioned around $18K if I remembered right...Todays DH is roughly 4 times as much as is gas and insurance.The Fox was light and felt torquey...The DH does not.IN the end the old one was even more fun to...

I dont care what the media says about adjusted for inflation how "cheap" are nowadays...Its not true as you can see most americans cant even afford to finance a new car with average new car price of around $44000 and up to 96 month loans...a good 30 years ago which feels like yesterday you saw...

These BMW engines are pretty stout nowadays and can take 700 hp all day on stock components...Toyota trusts BMW that much that they let BMW even design and build their Supra...LOL So I would not worry too much in that regard !

Not difficult at all...Below 4000 it feels like a Honda-Vtec and you just have to get used to the vibration in dashboard & shifter...Still more fun than a C8 because you have a manual...LOL If you say but a C8 is faster zero to 100 get a Tesla that makes the C8 or even Demon 170 feel slower on...

What I tried to say is that WAGES have not kept up with inflation...This is why we see all these unsold cars on dealer lots...Cars are too expensive and people dont have the money to buy them...Or they do crazy 72-84 month loans and are upside down ! Having said that to get back on-top and if...

I like a lot of other people in the US make pretty much the same money today (maybe plus 25% ) while prices for milk , gas and pretty much the same cars minus electronic gizmos I can do without have been going up 400 %…Same with housing , rent , etc…People cant afford the things anymore they...

Because people make so much money factories cant keep up with the demand for all these $75K Mustangs and $100K pickup trucks…🤣

I hear you but if C&D wants to be taken serious in any shape or form they need to run a control tire ! Otherwise these lap times only mean a Trofeo costs $ 2500 a set but gives you 5 seconds for a few laps ! But with the heat issue I am with you…Mach 1 or DH with a Tremec are the only options as...

Looks like we are both carguys from the same generation…The point I tried to make that not too long ago you could buy a car like a Fox body 5.0 that was probably more fun because it was light and torquey for way less money…Car prices have risen like crazy look like a new $30000 car that looks...

Lightning Lap means Nothing unless they let all cars run the same tire…Like letting runners compete one in hiking boots 🥾 the other wearing track shoes 👟…So much for the “king” 🤴when certain tires are only good for a few laps netting 5 seconds…C&D is fake news at best 🤣

I think we are the only marxist country left except for canada and the EU…🤣

Now at least we know why the DH has all that black Goth makeup on its face…🤣As for the overheating automatic another reason to get the manual as the Tremec is the only reason to get one over the regular GT ! I still thing the Tremec should be the only gearbox when speccing a manual especially...

The real reason we see this discussion is that Ford did not spend money on a new Mustang…The elephant in the room is the SS1LE that came out in 2017 and the DH was only able to “beat” by putting Trofeos on it…That is cheating as a 7 year old car would still beat an all new one being able to run...

Yes I am so tired of subsidizing the electric junk…Let the rich pay for their own crap instead of putting carbon and other BS taxes and other legislation on ICE powered vehicles…If electric cars where so great and so green which they are not people would buy them but they cant even give them...

I live in Commifornia and the only place I have ever seen a DH was at a Ford dealership while on vacation in mexico…🤣So its definitely not a hit ! I was really looking forward to it but I was simply underwhelmed looking at what is basically a Mach 1 with some black make up applied for $20K too...

LOL All this Throttle House comparison showed is that these Pirelli Trofeos are worth 5 seconds a lap…🤣 I like Thomas and James as they are witty but these video was close to worthless as I would bet that the M2 with Trofeos would have been the fastest followed by the Camaro and then the...

I hear you as after a testdrive I did not want a Mach 1 either because it was basically a GT with the same low torque engine and loose handling But at least had the much needed additional oil coolers and the Tremec 6 spd ! I was looking for the DH to raise the bar by going at least to 5.4 if not...

You are absolute right…If you dont track it I would not get the HP package for obvious reasons…Tire$$$ , tramlining , less traction in rain and temperatures below 60 degrees…Also the Recaros in Mustang spec feel like vise grips if you are not super skinny…Less is here definitely more !
