Jeez, that Torino is beautiful! Shame it didnāt hold up. I had a 74 Gran Torino, and as an 8 year old car it was a hunk oā shit. Parts literally fell off as I drove.
Meanwhile Ford sent me a satisfaction surveyā¦.one question was name anything I didnāt like about my new Mustangā¦.I was...
Itās a good sign. This car really makes me want to drive more as well.
Sure my 06 GT was cool and fun, but it was lowered and that stiff buckboard ride got old. Still canāt believe I drove the same car for 17 years. Thatās a record by a long shot for me.
Nice! On my install, I noticed that the sub change made the remaining speakers sound better. I think the OEM sub was putting out a bad resonance or something that suppressed the other speakers. My door woofers sound so much better now!
Replacing the center front speaker works well too.
Thanks! I love it as well!
I tell ya, between installing the rear louvers, side louvers, front splitter, rear spoiler, and trunk blackout panel with nothing but 3M tape and silicone, knowing you basically have one shot to get it right, my nerves were shot by the time I finished them all. It...
Oh wellā¦.good enough right?

When I got the recall notice on my 06 GT for the Takata airbags, the first time was something like ā Your airbag can explode, we donāt have a replacement, umā¦yeahā¦good luck and donāt hit nothināā
Then when passenger airbag recall came, they said basically⦠āyeah, um, your passenger airbag is...
Yupā¦ā¦Those are the ones who install oil coolers, catch cans and need to change their oil after one weekend of racing. Thatās a whole ānuther level.
A little tricky. they give you a groove to put the silicone in and it has to be a perfect 1/4ā bead. Too low and it doesnāt grip, too high and it globs out. I think my bead wasnāt high enough because the spoiler could be lifted a little in the back. I wedged small thin strips of 3M tape...
This may have some context to your question. So my 2 centsā¦
When I bought my 06 GT, it was used and already lowered with Eibach springs. A year or 2 after I had it, it was up on a lift and the mechanic and I noticed the inside of both front tires were badly worn almost to the point of being...
