  1. My car might soon be legally a lemon, anyone know what happens if I modified the car?

    If I were Ford, I would find a way to prove that your adding or modifying the audio system or any other part of the car is causing the issue and it is not a Ford manufacturing defect. If they prove it is your tinkering with the car that caused it, you are going to be on the hook to the dealer...
  2. Hey Ford!

    I forgot about the Homelink garage door openers. That is something I use daily. I have never understood the wireless charging thing as my phone does not use it, but then again my phone is normally plugged in via a USB cable for the Android Auto feature. It used to be you could get universal...
  3. Using Amtrak Auto Train from VA to FL with the Mustang

    Wait til you spend some time with the top down and with black seats. I curse Ford for not giving the ragtops a lighter roof and interior color option My 07 GT Premium ragtop had a nice light colored roof and interior
  4. Using Amtrak Auto Train from VA to FL with the Mustang

    Yes 2024 Rapid Red ragtop, 401A package
  5. Hey Ford!

    The lead time for ordered cars is stupidly long. I cancelled my 2024 order and found a car on the lot near me. Luckily the only option I wanted but was not on the in stock car was the 3.55 gear set, and I can live with that. The funny thing about my car was it was a special order car, either...
  6. Using Amtrak Auto Train from VA to FL with the Mustang

    There is nothing special about it, most of the train trip is in the dark at night, the last hour or so is stop and go as CSX has to work around the local train traffic (Brightline) commuter trains. If you can tolerate about 11 hours on the road including fuel stops and pee breaks, I suggest...
  7. Using Amtrak Auto Train from VA to FL with the Mustang

    I have done the auto train a dozen times with everything from my 24 GT to my 06 F150 w/ an 8' bed Yes you save 900 miles The trip is long and boring If the train is full you will be sharing the seat with someone, while trying to get a few ZZZ's The costs of rooms is off the scale The dining...
  8. TPMS Battery?

    the battery is in the TPMS sensor 2020 TPMS sensors are 315Mhz sensors 2024 and newer are 433Mhz sensors You can't use 315's on a 433 car. Ford sells a kit of 4 sensors and the activation tool for short money
  9. Weak Ventilated Seats

    I don't find that mine "blast" a lot of air, but I can tell you in the Florida sun with the top down you can feel them working.
  10. Becoming a Ford Mustang owner

    Whipple does not get you a Ford warranty, a Ford Performance kit, made by Whipple does. And it does not cover a whole lot. There is a dollar limit on it, something like $2500 To get any warranty coverage from Ford Performance it has to be dealer installed, or installed by a tech holding...
  11. Mystery part

    But Ford stopped giving those in the ragtop package as the reinforcing ribs on the underside rubbed against the roof fabric when the top was stowed resulting in warranty claims for roof replacements. The trim from the 550's fits, I got mine from @LevittownFordParts and only put them on when I...
  12. Thoughts on moving Convertible 3rd brake light?

    The FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard) No. 108 requires a center high-mounted stop lamp (CHMSL) on passenger cars manufactured after September 1, 1985, and trucks after September 1, 1994. This light must be mounted on the rear centerline of the vehicle, typically higher than the side...
  13. Whipple and Resale Value

    In some states dealers have to warranty their vehicles unless they are under a certain very low dollar threshold. In MA it used to be anything under $700 could be sold without a warranty, anything over $699 with under 125000 mikes MUST have a warranty
  14. Whipple and Resale Value

    Very few dealers are going to want to take it in trade as they have to warranty it if resold by them, and a Chevy dealer is not going to want a modified Ford product, and a Ford dealer isn't going to want to warranty a car that may have been abused. You'll do better on private sale, but assume...
  15. Transmission Fluid Check How-To (Not Fun)

    too bad the replacement pan was not a "bottom fill" type. A drain plug to drain it and a stand pipe to reflll it.
  16. 2026 Mustang Pricing, Photos, Specs & More

    Just did the MSRP on my 24 done as a 25, MSRP was just a few dollars under 65 grand I can't imagine what they are going to charge for 2026.
  17. Our S650 HP compared to the C8.

    Then we start getting into the world of square, under square, over square, not something that really gets discussed in cars, but in the V Twin world it does constantly Bore less than stroke, bore same as stroke, bore greater than stroke.... all 3 have their own peculiar ways of making power...
  18. Our S650 HP compared to the C8.

    Have you ever driven one? Nothing accelerates like an electric vehicle, the torque curve is flat, at maximum power from second one and will put a smile on your face. So it is gasoline only for you? Diesels can make power and incredible amounts of torque Steam was used to power cars at one...
  19. Our S650 HP compared to the C8.

    why don't we toss a Tesla S Plaid in the mix and see what car smokes what car The Vette is designed and made to compete against Euro supercars, the only way a Mustang gets equal footing is to get a GTD at $350K vs a $170K ZR1, and against a ZR1X the GTD is not going to stand a chance. Put a...
  20. Play with me for a bit

    IIRC the Feds made it illegal to modify the car before it was sold, it has to be done after the fact You don't see cars sent to Roush to be upfitted anymore, at least not with heavy engine mods, they are done at authorized dealers. I'm not taking a used car ad for a car at a Dodge dealership...
