  1. Automatic or 6-speed - honest feedback

    Nice! Must be quite a different driving experience hopping from one to the other!
  2. Traction Control

    I expect this car to be much more stable than my 06 GT. This car has fatter tires, wider stance, and IRS. My 06 had Live axle and a 40 lb Shaker System subwoofer box placed all the way in the back behind the rear wheel. Put a 40 lbs bag of cement behind your rear wheel and see how tail-happy...
  3. Best wheel cleaner solution and method

    Lol…I decided I’m not bothering trying to get to the inside of the wheels.
  4. Automatic or 6-speed - honest feedback

    Yeah, Even though I’m still breaking mine in, I’ve dabbled with Sport. It does hang on to gears too long, especially 5th. I found when it does, just blip the paddle up to the next gear and sort it out on your own. Pedal response IS better though!
  5. Traction Control

    Ford making big money on every accessory…lol. Over $100 for a sunshade…LMAO.
  6. Best wheel cleaner solution and method

    Thanks! Those are the EXACT set of brushes I have. They scratched the clearcoat on black painted wheels on my wife’s car. Real fine scratches, but being that the wheels are black, they showed up visibly. Sure they feel soft to the touch, but they are still bristles. I then thought, would I...
  7. Traction Control

    I have a Gt Premium. Not the PP though, And it has the 3.55 gear option for $995. I got lucky just by chance of it already being equipped on the one I liked.
  8. Best wheel cleaner solution and method

    Makes sense. I didn’t know they made microfiber wheel brushes. My car has yet to see water.…lol. With a quick spray wax mist and wiping off with micro fiber towel, I spend about 2 minutes per wheel. Only bummer is not being able to wipe the inner part of my wheels. The 20” wheel design is...
  9. Traction Control

    I’m going to confess to being a little confused. I understand what each drive mode does and what Traction Control/ Stability is supposed to do. But what are you guys saying actually happens in the real world of actual driving With Traction Control on? Are you saying it helps or makes things...
  10. Best wheel cleaner solution and method

    I bought bristled brushes supposedly safe for painted wheels. I cleaned my wife’s car wheels which were black. Noticed micro scratches from the brush. I then thought, would I wash my car with a bristle brush? Maybe I got cheap ones, but I’m wary of anything other than a sponge or micro fiber...
  11. Road Insanity

    I must be getting old to get the katzenjammer reference.…lol. God bless you at 81 and cruising Strong….My Dad was still driving at 100.
  12. Looking to pickup a 2025 GT premium with performance package - price expectations

    I think Ford is still doing Employee pricing…that knocks a bit off. Negotiate a price before disclosing how you are paying for it or including a trade-in. I think its better overall to find something close to your build sitting on the lot. They are more eager to get rid of inventory, and you...
  13. No sound, display shows radio and nav working

    Lol…well, at least the dealer has a record of it, so if it starts being a real problem, he has logged a history of it. My guess is over time, it might happen once or twice more, then will start behaving. Electronics seem to do that sometimes.
  14. Best wheel cleaner solution and method

    When I took delivery of my car it had only 4 miles on it and was just off the trailer. The dealer hadn’t touched it. My wheels were covered with white spots that looked etched in…possibly looking like what you described. I thought the wheels were ruined. I cleaned it a few times and waxed...
  15. Best wheel cleaner solution and method

    I just constantly spray with Meguiars Quick Wax and wipe with a microfiber cloth. Everytime I clean is another layer of wax, and the dirt comes off so easy.
  16. Broke stud While Installing Strut Tower Brace

    I guess it’s a good thing they are only studs the tower brace mounts to. You think maybe some studs come weakened from the factory welding process?
  17. Automatic or 6-speed - honest feedback

    Thanks…that’s good to know! Each mode definitely has it’s place. I’m just still learning which mode works best in what place. Thanks! Some good tips as well. I hardly tried Track Mode yet. I’m trying so hard to stay with a gentle break-in until I reach the magic 1000 miles, then explore...
  18. Base Spoiler to Handling Package Spoiler upgrade

    All I can suggest is when removing the stock spoiler, take your time with that 3M tape!! I rushed it with trimmer line and damaged the paint a bit from the abrasion, even though I protected the paint with masking tape. Also-if prying up the old spoiler, be gentle…I pulled up too hard and broke...
  19. No sound, display shows radio and nav working

    From my experience with the Lincoln, these electronic systems go through growing pains. Tend to get buggy in the beginning, then they settle down. Sometimes software updates fix the issue, or maybe just adaptive learning and battery management sorts it all out.
  20. Automatic or 6-speed - honest feedback

    I’m still getting the feel of my auto trans. In Normal mode, it just lugs to the next gear (I’m still trying to be gentle in break-in), though it’s a little more responsive with the exhaust set to Track. Now approaching 600 miles on the OD, I’m exploring Sport Mode on the trans. It’s a bit...
