  1. Tacked-on Infotainment Screens Trend

    You should try backing up on the 4". Works just fine if not better than the 8. Ota updates are an exercise fraught with risk. With Bronco, the new software was vastly more buggy than the factory release if it doesn't brick the whole car. Ford SUCKS at the basics and 10x more so in software...

    That's what voice prompts and pulling off the road are for.
  3. 🗓️ 2024 Mustang Limited Retail Scheduling, No U.S. Specialty (Dark Horse) Scheduling This Week (5/25/23)

    $200 worth of vinyl solves it in 20 minutes. Are we sure it's really painted?
  4. Paying for your DH

    never gonna happen. If they do the country (and world) burns. I figured the OP was going to post how he used the windfall profits from shorting Tesla or bitcoin to pay for the car.

    latter of course. Hell, it could take 6.4 seconds and I'd still choose the V8 Car "acceleration" is a sad, pathetic joke. You want acceleration ride a motorcycle. Even better a MC leans which is 1000x more fun than some non-tilting car.
  6. Tacked-on Infotainment Screens Trend

    the amount or applicability of Guzzler has everything to do with "inception date" vis a vis Legal effective date, and transmission choice. For example back in 2022 the manual GT got a Guzzler rider but only after a certain date, no matter the ones before were still VIN MY2022 cars.
  7. Tacked-on Infotainment Screens Trend

    true, but a 10hz panel can more than handle the rate of change in speeds, and a 0.1hz screen can handle the temperatures. And anyway it's probably an IPS panel. my 2016 Ducati has a LED gauge cluster that is exposed to every weather condition. It's positively crude compared to the ones you can...

    Tech is not always beneficial. For the last 15 years it's turned the corner from useful and beneficial to its own god and religion.

    The only reason Tesla has it is because they are a software company pretending to be an auto manufacturer. And everyone copied them because some fauning fool associated them with hip, happen'n and tech Gaga. Software people look at the tablet as offering infinite updates, infinite customized...
  10. Tacked-on Infotainment Screens Trend

    People are allowed to buy what they want so long as tradition is maintained as an option. How many people would pay a rider of $3000 or more for gratuitous tech if it wasn't included in the price? Probably 30% or less. People don't want tech, they were force fed it. Who wants a CVT? Basically...

    Indont want them mounted in my line of sight. I want them out of the way so they don't distract or interfere with the task of driving. There is nothing inside the car that needs paying attention to when you're rolling except speed, which if you're payi g attention is more than discernable from...
  12. S650 vs. Cadillac CT6

    ditto Charger/Challenger but the V6 comes in AWD and they sell quite a few. AWD does some pretty great things in launches that no front/rear car can match. I'm not saying we should want AWD in a Mustang as that "violates" the ethos, but with crashing sales numbers, it probably would bring some...
  13. This is how buttons work..

    Indeed. The stack of $10,000 stuck in the bandana of the reviewer covering his eyes has a remarkable effect on commenting on defects.
  14. Realistic goal on S650 after delay emails from Ford.

    1LE models specifically disable that ruinous garbage.
  15. S650 vs. Cadillac CT6

    If you're in a cross shopping mood,Audi rs5 if you want v8 and AWD and auto. Or a 2012 S5 which is AWD v8 and 6mt. I got up close and personal with an awd f150 chassis to eamine at the Rouge plant. The same setup could work on the mustang. I can't fathom why they don't even try.
  16. Premium fuel for Mustang DH to be more expensive.

    and I'm not talking about 'you' personally either. I mean anyone considering a 400+HP car. Paying 10% more for 91/93 over 87 is not expensive. Start paying 50% more and we're getting there.
  17. S650 vs. Cadillac CT6

    Caddy dealers like to charge a LOT, but there is nothing special about what they do, so just take it to your local Chevy. The CT5V is more comparable to the GT except in motor and backseat access.
  18. Premium fuel for Mustang DH to be more expensive.

    16 gallons x 0.4 = $6.40 extra per tank - a single Starbucks swill. Or roughly 10% more expensive. If you can't afford 93 you can't afford to drive any of these cars period - and need to instead buy a car that soundly beats the 10% surcharge in MPG improvements. My Scat 6MT drinks 93 at a...
  19. Flat Rock plant down due to quality issues

    Well I'm in Dearborn today a mile from hq. Maybe I'll pop in and ask to talk to Bill? "Do you have an appointment, sir" "No, but 8000 members of Mustang7g are desperate for a straight answer or two" "Well then, let me see what I can do"
  20. Realistic goal on S650 after delay emails from Ford.

    but that will tank the stock! Ford family and friends will lose billions in unrealized wealth. Even something as "simple" as sheetmetal can take weeks to have new bucks made, and if your tolerances get tight, you may have to significantly revise HOW you operate the press, the composition of the...
