@smurfslayer ..... great question. I have been told to completely disable it involves cancelling other telemetrics so you may not get some Ford up-dates. I think I inadvertently disabled my lane holding feature (which I liked) and that may have shut-off the "keep two hands on the wheel" and "I...
@Loucas @TimSez ......the keep two hands on the steering wheel also has a potentially SINISTER aspect. If we are in an accident that is not our fault will the car codes shared with insurance companies show we had been warned 50 times to "keep two hands on the wheel" and will that be held against...
@Ciulster ..... and I apologize too. I was too quick on the draw myself. I apologize and I'll get some more sleep myself :-) I understand the parts 100% and as a long time Ford owner (3 mustangs) I was pi$$ed after spending 70 grand and looking at those holes and the chipped paint on my pinch...
@Tomasfish ..... right on brother. You have hit it 100%. I installed these six months ago after a 400 mile drive from the dealer. I had to touch-up the damage before I installed the kit. I was pi$$ed! If someone doesn't want to spend 100 bucks and 30 minutes on a fix to prevent the magnitude of...
@Ciulster ..... not so fast on the draw. Geez buddy did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed. FYI Hein had to get the blueprints from Ford re-configure them to have his CAD accept them, run multiple attempts, determine the best composite and materials to attach them to the felt surfaces...
@1hotboss ..... you're welcome, happy to be of any help. Have fun choosing! As a comparison here's a pic of my (former) 2014 Mustang with an "all black" interior. Thought you could do a quick scroll up/down to compare. Still really nice, but IMO the grey kicks the look up a notch. I sold it to a...
@1hotboss ..... I can't take credit for it because mine came with the space grey interior at the dealers but I get a huge amount of compliments on it. As well, as the seat faces, the door panels have space grey inserts which IMO is awesome. I was worried that the color might show dirt but I...
@Alan Applegate ..... 100% Alan. Great Head's-Up. I have also been told by my dealer that to remove the top engine cover on my 2024 GT, without breaking it, they would have to remove the factory strut brace. If this is true, it is IMO still well worth having that brace. BTW - the nuts to secure...
@jeffnudi ..... well that depends. If you garage your car and it isn't subject to al lot of tree sap and pollen and don't drive it in the rain a lot and don't drive it in the winter if you live up north then you can probably go about five years without treating your top. BUT if your top is...
@rkmustang ..... I like Auto Glym but it is hard to find. Detailers swear by Griot's but I have not used it. I have used Chemical Guys and it worked well. Friends have used Ragg Top and liked it. I would avoid any kit that mentions coloring additives as these are bad news. Some forum members may...
@decidave8 , respectfully get the strut - your Mustang will love you for it. If you do so, I suggest you torque the nuts in stages (half torque and wait a half hour then final torque to spec slowly) to avoid any potential to twist the studs.
@Upacurb .....there are a quite number of authoritative videos wherein the differences in the S550 and S650 are concerned. One of the most informative is a lengthy one from Ford.
@robvas.... The Dark Horse R is a fastback, (coupe) isn't it? If so not having a strut tower brace is not as crucial as it is in a convertible where it is absolutely crucial. That said I have seen supercharged Mustangs where there was no room for Ford oem strut towers where the owner has...
@robvas..... I respectfully disagree. A fellow Mustang enthusiast wanted to see the how much a strut tower brace affected the stiffness of the front end. He installed three metered rods all connected to the strut tower and back to the firewall. All had pull gauges. The cross strut front lateral...
@young at heart ......first get the strut tower brace. IMO no Mustang convertible should ever leave the factory without that strut brace. I guess you did not get the premium or it should have had the strut brace from the factory. Get one - like as of yesterday. It will make a significant...
@kagemusha2662 ...... you are under the mistaken impression that @nitepony owns the Mustang. The cat owns the Mustang and will allow @nitepony to drive it when the weather is good. The cat also owns the house and particularly the driveway. I know this because I have a Siamese which is like...
@dave8871 .... not trying to ne a smart a$$ but I would tell the dealer I wanted a 2025 and if they said no I'd look elsewhere. Yes, the 2025s will be a bit more expensive BUT by the time you receive your 2024 it will already be considered one model year old so you'll lose on resale or trade. As...
@nitepony ..... awesome but I spot a quality control issue. Your passenger side cat has been installed too low you're bound to bottom out with that. Dealer should fix without any agro. You'd think by now Ford could get the cats on right?
I don't even care about the weight or any statistics...... GEEZ - it's electric. I stopped playing with electric cars and tried to make a go-cart out of dad's lawn mower when I was eight. Now I'm going to buy a pos EV? Stellantis will soon be too broke to build a soap box derby car.
