OOOHHHHHH, you mean the car spoiler! Looks good! I thought you were showing off those bar end tassels on your little girl's bike with the extra cool white tires. If you get a spoiler, she should at least get a rear slick and a little spoiler. :thumbsup:

No, it isn't good for cars. You can read in thousands of places that the most wear in an engine occurs at start up. And, no, in my opinion, it doesn't improve gas mileage. I think car makers are desperate to meet EPA CAFE standards, thus this dumb feature. I'm just used to starting my car...

@LouG, Why not ceramics? I don't have a solid answer, to be truthful. It just doesn't appeal to me. I just wondered what other people are using that I might like.

Normally, not. A lot happens in two years.

What are your two favorite chemicals for 1) Waxing (or similar) and 2) Shining that make your Mustang's color "pop and shine" ? Not interested in ceramic coatings at all. Right now, I'm experimenting with some things. The latest is what I think is mostly a silicone based spray on product...

An automatic can be shifted as a manual can through paddle shifting. I don't think there is any validity to the belief that the automatic transmission causes wheel spin all the way from 60 to 130 with a whipple. It's a driver issue.

I drive through Georgia often to get to family and the State Po Po doesn't mess around on anything. Best to be on good behavior and have a good radar detector.......

Well, @junkyarddog, selling and moving would likely solve this problem but likely not a good solution for you, no? Sorry, couldn't resist. I envy the peace and quiet you likely have in your home and hope you get a good solution on this thread. 👍

Probably unbeatable on a track......

Ford's X plan is generally for Ford employees, family, and select business partners. As the Starship said above, it's being used as a sales incentive. It saved me a significant amount of money on my car over and above what I negotiated, even after it was ordered and before it was delivered...

Well, I don't know how the car measures temps. Synthetic oil does have better attributes than non, and no, I'm not going to start a war on that. Those terms, used properly, describe different lubricants with measureable differences and properties. Over and out.

Be careful you don't get blown out.... :crackup:

I just got back from a 40-50 mile drive in all kind of conditions, AC on.....city to open hwy at 80, to a couple of semi-hard pulls and my oil temp never got above 225. My oil stays a little below 210 F most of the time with AC on in town when warmed up in 88 degree ambient temps. Non PP...

I just now got Alexa connected today and she's quite handy. Love the Alexa Music free trial! I'm pretty sure I'll keep it. Radio stations are crap today, I don't like messing with my phone through the car, and just saying a few words to get what I want to listen to, want done in the car, and...

That is a serious issue with alignment. You're fortunate nothing bad happened. Nothing that can't be fixed, I would hope. Don't see how it wasn't noticeable in the steering.

Boy, I bet Ford made a real killing on the bottom line by eliminating the stitching on this little panel. What next? Seven pistons instead of eight?? I hate this kind of cheaping out. And no, the accountants don't make this kind of decision. Management does.

No, there isn't one size fits all. I can wash my car, blow dry it with a leaf blower and be done with it pretty darn quick. I wax my cars and wax it with my favorite 3 or four times a year and it looks like new except when it gets dirty. This isn't rocket science though some people make it...

I took out the mickey mouse slime system and put in a Modern spare. Inexpensive enough for the added peace of mind on my 2025 and it fits in trunk just fine.

Good point. For street driving, I doubt it matters.
