the cooled seats are nice, and considering Ford limited the interior and roof colors on the ragtops, when you are baking your ass off in black leather seats in the Florida sun it was the least they could d for those of us who can keep the top down year round. My 07 GT Premium ragtop had a great...

I work as a tech in a shop, and my car goes back to the dealer for oil changes I can't buy the oil, filter, shop supplies and pay for disposal for less than what the dealer is charging me, and I don't have to deal with 20 effn fasteners to get to the filter and drain plug, The rest of my fleet...

not randomly, but my car when it was brand new had to go back to the dealer for a drivers seat SRS harness. There are so many components to SRS systems these days such as occupant weight sensors that need to be calibrated it is one thing I don't get into

Well that explains why it dropped from 20 to 15% going around the block, the first time the car had been out of the garage in 5 weeks So when I go to visit the car in 2 months, it will have been just about a year since the last oil change so it will be at or near zero. I was planning on having...

PS for your EB, the previous FP tune was iirc 35 HP and 75 ft pounds torque, and it was available in the $700 range from FP resellers.

There is a thread about it, FP has CARB approval, and there was even a PN associated with the filing, but so far it is vaporware If you have followed along on some of the posts on 7G module security and checksums, so far nobody has been able to re-write a ECM and have the vehicle start. Only...

It is one of my big gripes when I am doing tires at the shop, not only to they weld themselves on , even if you get them off sometimes it fuses the core into the stem so you can't get it out. Hard to break or set a bead with the core still in the stem

Even with a tender on the battery it will still go into battery save mode. It happens to my car all the time, as recently as last week. I try to have someone start the car every couple of weeks to keep the modems on but this last time it must have gone too long between starts so it shut the...

Metal caps will come back to bite you in the arse, they will fuse onto the valve stem.

Bang for the buck, or smiles per mile Say you can get the FP kit installed with a $9200 cost for the kit, $3000 in labor, toss in some catch cans for $500 give or take. That puts you at the point where Ford thinks the engine, transmission, and axles are not going to fail putting them on the...

You will have a lot of aggravation trying to get them to match the color of the car Look at bumper covers in a parking lot sometime You will notice most of them are just a shade off the color of the surrounding painted metal pieces. Trying to paint black plastic to match a body color is not...

That is going to be a pretty base level Mustang for 53K with a Whipple. Like 300A and a stick. A Ford Performance Whipple kit is going to be a tad over 9 grand, and assume another $3000 to install it, and that is without catch cans, axles and other stuff you might want to have if you are going...

I had the tires on my daily driver set to 35PSI cold when I left FL to come back north for the summer. The set pressure in the computer is also 35 PSI We had a run of days where the temp was under 50 degrees and my TPMS was on for 3 days as the tires were down to 31 PSI on all 4 corners. As...

Must be nice to be rich Rumor has it the drift brake is going away, unconfirmed but possible. I too was going to Whipple mine, but once I got the car I found out that the 400+ HP at the wheels was enough for me. YMMV You are talking well north of 70K for the car and the Whipple install, plus...

comment deleted as there is now tuning available for the 7G cars

OK a car that depreciates like a rock, you are at least 25% down on depreciation as the car is now pushing 2.5 model years old. It is typical you lose 1/3 in 3 years and over 50% in five , sometimes closer to 60% It is a niche car, it isn't a family car, the back seat is useless so forget...

The Mustang is Ford's current Halo car, like the Vette is to GM, they may sell them even at a low profit margin just for the name value. From MY24 to MY25, my car's MSRP went up close to $4000 The sticker on my 24 was $58,515 now it is easily over $62K Even with A/Z plan pricing the 2025 GT...

I stand corrected

Schrader makes the TPMS sensors and IMHO they are some of the best out there. Cripes just PSI from 48 to 75 degrees is 3 PSI different Here's the deal, we are FORCED to have TPMS sensors by the Feds because of the BS Ford and Firestone did in the mid 1990's with the Explorer Because they...
