No, you won't mellow out with age. You'll just be a lot more treacherous. Like the saying goes....."Old age and treachery will overcome youth and exuberance every time".
I respect older people.......they've experienced more than I have.
I couldn't agree more. This morning, I waxed my new Mustang with a Meguire's product I've been using for years and it looks great considering the mediocre at best, quality of the paint job Ford produces....it isn't the greatest around.
Effective marketing has convinced a lot of people they...
Damned if I would buy any car that I had this many complaints about. I don't need or want a lot of bells and whistles that any dealer can't repair. Ford knows what they're doing and the demographic that is likely to purchase a Mustang. Maybe you aren't in the demographic the Mustang was...
After having dealt with Ford for 10 years with painting being a large part of it, orange peel is the result of improper painting procedures.....period. It has nothing to do with mass production.
Proper painting procedures are just as easy to maintain as improper painting procedures. That is...
No, can't help you. I like the distinctiveness of the lighting as it. I don't want my Mustang to look like or behave like other cars on the roadways. To each their own.
Yes, they are expensive and it's because it's an "aftermarket" part. Everything from Steeda is over priced because they know people will buy through emotion as part of the equation.
A lot of it depends on the driver and how he uses it no matter if it's stock or not. Will it hold up.....for a while until it needs to be replaced, like all of them.
Two things....someone asked about a small town. I live in the biggest city in my state and ordered my Mustang from a small dealer 38 miles away because I knew I could negotiate better with them and they aren't idiots. My car came in, in three months.
Concerning Mustang's being well built...
I know you don't want to hear this but it just takes Ford a long time to build a Mustang GT once they receive the order.
Mine, less than a month old, took from the middle of February to the middle of May for it to be delived to me. Three months of patience and getting more involved in other...
You might not want the car if you saw it being built. I've spent more time in Ford assembly plants than I want to remember as the head of a Tier 1 supplier to them. At the time, they cheated on their SPC charts, had paint issues that they still have today (orange peel), and there are too many...
It saves me a lot of angst and money by just using a very good car wax now and then. Race Red responds quite well to it and today's paints are better than they used to be in some regards.
That said, Ford, still hasn't figured out how to paint a car without excessive orange peel. My company...
Me too. Ford has taken advantage of the computerization to play "big brother". I hate that sh-t too. I guess they think only stupid people buy Mustangs.
I was president of a company that built complex over the road/streets vehicles and we had an unwritten policy to not deal with people that went "postal" with us or were abusive with our employees. We worked with people to amicably solve problems but when customers became too hard to deal with...
Actually, almost nobody. I live in an affluent place where you may see every kind of fast car made. A GT is no big deal here. It was different when we had a ZO6. Anybody and everybody would want to race. I just ignored them. They want to be entertained at my expense. BTW, the Z06 is a...
