I ordered one day before you and I have had my car for about 2 months. The difference might be that the dealer had 10 allocations and I bought number 5. If you didn't have an allocation, that might explain the problem.
You shouldn't need to add gauges as nearly everything you can think of is run to the computer and thus to the screen. Head temperature, vacuum, fuel ratio and even each tire is measured so most anything you want can be configured to display.
Even if you can get fuel without alcohol, That mix would bring it over E20 which would be more that the E15 limit that Ford recommends. It might be ok in the short term but I am not sure about the long term. The second issue is the size of the injectors. If they aren't large enough you won't be...
My letter arrived today and I opened it about 20 minutes ago. I don't have the handling package but I have the 6 speed. The handling package may not make much difference as the major difference between the two is the tires and my care has fairly sticky standard tires.
I wonder how they will feel...
Once I pick up a 6 inch long, half inch pipe nipple that must have come off a plumbing truck. A patch kit wouldn't have done much good but I had a spare that I used. If I didn't have the spare it would have been wait for triple A.
You either have recordings, XM radio or don't do much driving away from civilization. Granted the rumble of a V8 is entertaining but after a few hours, it gets old. Truckers listen to it all the time and you can tell by what they talk about when they get back. Either politics or Dave Ramsey...
Not knowing how bad your knees are you might reconsider the manual if you like them. I found the clutch much easer to operate than anything else I have driven. My knees are good as I have taken good care of them over the years but we did a double knee replacement on my roommate. If you are of...
My car has an AM radio as well as previous cars that they turned it off on. It was a simple software change to reenable it.
Electrical noise is difficult to deal with and removing AM radio was a cheap way to do it. It's more expensive to design better EV motor controllers, install filters and...
I don't have them either. It's probably there to protect the edge from what the wider tires kick up. As I have the standard tires, they fit nicely within the body of the car.
That is close to the adaptive cruse control radar. It's hard to tell if the unit will be affected or not but until you're sure it works, don't rely on it.
There seems to be UV blocking in the windows so the interior doesn't really degrade. What will do the steering wheel in is sweat and just plain wear. The leather on my 96 is intact but worn in places. Probably auto part stores would have covers and I have seen them in the repair waiting rooms at...
The jack has a grove in the top plate that goes on both sides of the seam joining the two sections together. This prevents the jack from slipping side to side. Lifts may need a special plate or attachment to apply pressure in the same way when using those points.
I am in Phoenix and it really gets hot. but it's the humidity and not the heat you feel. :wink:
I find the intake temperature tends to match the outside temperature pretty close.
The car draws air from the front grill on both sides. They prevent you from using the warm air in the engine compartment. You could run without them and there might be an advantage on a very cold winter day but running without them could result in lower horse power.
I was trying to find the jack points should I need to change a tire on my Dark Horse. I found the jack points by feel but I couldn't see the arrow until I took a picture of it. There are multiple points to hold the trim in place but only 4 jack points. The first picture is a trim point and the...
While I haven't tried a GT, I suspect you are correct. The handling package options for the GT are included as standard feature on the Dark Horse. Unless you're comparing a GT with the handling package to a Dark Horse, I would expect differences. It's probably the MagneRide but I find my car a...
I am not so sure about that. They introduced a supercharger that will get 700 horse power out of a GT engine without touching the bottom end. They said that the reason they beefed up the Dark horse engine was because it had bendy rods at 500 horse power. I don't think we know the full truth...
