My GT has seen 150 on the speedometer, FWIW. Didn't want to hit the rev-limiter going that fast.

I paid for all of my car when I bought it and I don't want it back after some idiot(s) has likely abused it one way or another. I pay insane amounts of insurance between myself and my company and that's what it's for. They've bought me more than one new vehicle and my rates don't go up. We're...

Exactly as mine around town with the same car. Haven't even done a highway trip yet. Life is hard right now.

Same with my measly GT. I made that pact with myself when I ordered the car. Same with tires. That said, my consumption around town is great (21-22 with 10 spd.) because the local police, police in large bordering city, and the county Sheriff have a speeding campaign going on until August...

Looks like the OP finally hit one outta the park. Bout time.

If my car is stolen, I don't want it back unless I catch them in the act and then there is some chance the 9mm will come out. It wouldn't be the first time that specific gun has stopped a crime attempted on me. I carry the vast majority of the time and live in one of the most 2A supportive...

No, sales won't recover. Just my opinion based on everything I read about cars, car sales, and the economy. FWIW.

90% of the time, I buy 93 octane, E10 Top Tier gas for my Mustang from a pump that also has 95 octane gas specifically labeled "non-top tier". I notice a lot of people use it in boats on weekends. I've tried it in other vehicles I own with no discernable difference in my butt dyno. Do your...

Radar detector. My car doesn't move without it being on. BTW, the locals (two towns) and the Sheriff have a speeding blitz going on until August 12. My detector was going off so much I looked it up and sure enough. I think cell phones are a bigger problem.

Have fun and good luck.

It's interest rates. A lot of people just look at MSRP then go straight to the monthly payment. A GT is recreation for a LOT of people. Hell, people finance mods or all the aftermarket places wouldn't offer terms for toy add on's. When people want toys for recreation, they get them whether...

You had better find out if you're getting all of the gas additives in 95 octane. Not all higher octane non-ethanol gas has required car additives. My 2 cents.

That is beautiful country! I've run all those roads so stupid fast on sport bikes, I just got it out of my system for good. Now, those places are for just cruising. I wised up. Not many people could keep up with me. I know I'm one lucky person.

I use a radar detector 100% of the time, and have found my eyes are the best radar detectors. An awful lot of tickets can be avoided by just looking for the po po when in a "speedy" mode. I keep fast, stupid people in front of me, I do it in places where it's hard for them to hide then get...

Nope, not the sound the OP described but, yeah, my car does make strange noises at strange times. It must be a strange car. The driver is......

My dealer gave me a loaner "nice" version of an Explorer yesterday as a loaner car while they replaced a small part damaged in transit and the Explorer interior looked really bad. I've always like my Mustang interior. People gripe about it but I can't stand shiny blinged up, leathered up...

Nice looking car. What did you do to get that super nice shine?

I don't know that price is as much as it's made out to be. Expectations from a lot of young people (and others) are out of line and people aren't managing debt well at any age right now. Interest rates have been much higher too. Too many kids think they should come out of college with a...

I wasn't being critical at all and sincerely hope you have good outcomes. Whatever someone else owns is good with me. EcoBoosts don't make bad power. I bought my GT not worrying about miles, buying gas, tires, whatever. Your car doesn't make bad power. I had a fun 4.6 liter, 2007 GT with...

Good luck. You wouldn't like the GT noise. I do though.
