@glenng6 ...... I had 6 series 31 AGMs in my cruiser. I used Mercruiser brand but they were made by one of the big manufacturers. Motorcraft usually use top shelf manufacturers for their brand and gets them to add specialty items ..... sort of like when we used to buy Sears Kenmore appliances -...

@Starship Enterprise ...... Nothing "random" with how my vehicles are treated. I ASK to speak with the tech - to MEET with him/her and I give them the keys. That's when I make my requests and give my tip. At this point with both dealer relationships, they both know the tech(s) we prefer and...

In have read the extensive thread on this forum on the subject and as usual the members have done an amazingly authoritative job. I have a 2024 GT Premium Convertible. I have just traded it in on a 2026 GT Premium Convertible (I know - the deal was very, reasonable. I didn't get slaughtered...

@AZ_Ryan very interesting but even more interesting (to me) is that you tipped him which I think is an awesome idea. I tip the techs who work on our vehicles. I always say please take the time you need to do the job right. If it goes over "menu time" I'll cover that. At oil change time I tip...

..... WOW - some really great looking Rims!!!!! Love it! There are at least 4 styles that would look great on my Mustang - and this is the first time I can say that about any line of rims I have seen from any manufacturer! Nice work @GEMMOTORSPORTS 8-)

@Mrob ..... sacrilege !!!!! Making that poor Mustang share a room with a transformer toy!

The only regret I have about my 2024 GT convertible is that it did not have the active exhaust on it. I can find no aftermarket switchable/aftermarket system that will fit the convertible (the exhaust pipes/runners must fit under the rear frame brace master plate and most aftermarket systems say...

@Gregs24 .... respectfully disagree. My 2024 GT does not tic at all - not even a hint. This is not normal valvetrain "noise" the BBQ/Typewriter Tic is an erratic, loud annoying noise. I am NOT trying to turn this into another re-hash of the reasons - I want to know if this "tic" is STILL being...

......fast forward to late 2025 early 2026 Mustang Coyote engines. Is anyone hearing reports of recent models having the Coyote Tic, BBQ Tic or Typewriter Tic Whatever you want to call it)......Just wondering if it has been solved (by Ford) and is now a thing of the past (having been solved) or...

...... select and look at your gauges, that will tell you all you need to know.

Nope. Never did this with any of the built car or marine engines we did. In "the day" doing this would result in raw gas into your cylinders and oil dilution. Even right now "these days" too much can go wrong. Anyway, if you use FULL synthetic and your engine sits for six months there will...

@antimatterblueknight .... sorry for your troubles. We all have them. I have incurable bone marrow cancer, that said I still think your post was 90% useless. You wait TWO years to get a brake related recall fixed and whine about everything in between. This forum has so many great members (many I...

......I am astounded that anyone would delay a such an important recall then have the nerve to whine about the repercussions. If this isn't an early April Fool's joke or a Troll then it is a perfect definition of idiocy. As they say "If you wait long enough stupid will show up".

@canzaecho .... agree but slight correction - the agent didn't say immediately but as soon as available. By this I interpreted his comment meant within a reasonable amount of time - like as soon as the dealer could schedule you in as opposed to a year later. Of course, I agree, much of what we...

Sorry but I'm going to add to the discussion. I just called my insurance agent. He is a cool guy even if he drives a competitor's ride (Dodge Hellcat). He said - read the fine print on your policy. You are required to have recalls completed as soon as they are available to maintain coverage. I...

@Gregs24 ..... what you say makes sense. I was told that Ford does not keep recalls open indefinitely and were I to trade-in my 2024 in say 2027 or 08 Ford might not pay for the recall and I would be stuck with the cost.....that also makes sense.
