But the point about heat retention is easily provable, the metal generally does retain heat for a longer period than poly equivalents. Any polymer frame handgun can illustrate this with about 50-75 rounds of aimed, but relatively fast fire. The metal takedown lever is going to be noticeably...

Probably a ’24 GT A10 & 3.55’s I have bikes to go fast, and shift manually. If I were really going to get serious about auto-x or track events, I’d add in the handling package, but for just kicking around this would fit my needs well. Of course... the EB Mustang can be had around 30k, so...

it would depend on why I was in the market for a Mustang.

Honestly... Other than make the battery charge indicator light up, it doesn’t really do anything ;-) I’ve used it a few times for up to an hour+ - so say 70 minutes-ish. No change in charge status. It’s got to be in just the right spot for it to “work” but the one in my Mustang is a non...

A cavalier with a glass pack? :-O I had a v6 cav for about a year before my first Mustang, but no mods for that cavalier !

Damn. You’ve broken it. I’ll give you $500 for it though. As long as you’re not hanging out near redline for extended periods of time yet, you’ll likely be fine.

HERETIC! BURN HIM! You must know by now that the Dark Horse 6 speed is UNASSAILABLE and must be revered. :crackup: Now that you mention it, I’ve had that happen to me - toggle to sport and not yet warm enough and it’s hold, hold, hold, rev, rev, rev and SHIFT. I may try leaving it in...

Coming to the ’24 with my last Mustang being a ’97 and a Fox body before that, the current Mustang is hand over fist better at maintaining control, even under heavy throttle with __just__ the better suspension. With the ’24 you have much, much more aggressive electronic nannies to hopefully...

Harsh. Brutally harsh. 🍻

Me too. Mustang did it to me yesterday when my wife wanted to go grab some dessert. Minimal warm up, hop in and go and yeah, some elongated shifts, and definitely not butter smooth. Until it warmed up.

Have you tried other modules besides BCM?

Yes. I have a slightly different opinion. When the 10r80 is warming up, it shifts conservatively to protect itself, and it is programmed to behave this way. I 2x 10r80’s - ’17 Raptor and ’24 Dark Horse. I knew what to expect but once she’s warmed up, this thing shifts on a whole different...

You jest! But there are actually hypermiling groups that get together and do _exactly_ this. I happened upon them when I lived in NoVA. These nitwits would group ride across the entire interstate at ~57mph As you can imagine, they are not very popular among the driving public. I was...

Sort of true since we lack practical border enforcement, but, states close to cartels operating in Mexico have bounties placed on vehicles by the cartels, so thieves in accessible areas will go for high profit models, get them to a ‘safe’ location and scoot them over the border with different...

You seem rather unhappy, and I do truly hope whatever it is going on in your life that is making you unhappy, improves dramatically.

I did my part to increase my carbon footprint by passing a pr!us slow rolling in a 65 zone Saturday. I was careful to use judicious amounts of throttle to ensure any hypermiling improvement they were getting was more than offset by the amount of exhaust my Mustang generated. hypermiling...

Taking your GT350 to Lowes. In a state with a Mexican border. Bold move.

I don’t get the I don't get the Dark Horse vs GT thread. And that it’s really still going. ;-)

Did it have rich, Corinthian leather ? ;-) let’s see who all remembers that line

+1. My buddy had a Dodge 318 that backfired through the carb and WHOOSH. Water and wet towels to the rescue. That’s not one I would have expected - brake fluid!!! damn.
