Not my estimate. It's from Consumer Reports. Disagree with them, not me. P.S. - You have an opinion, too. Wow.

Z06 buyers know what they want and what options they are getting for a 6-figure car, while - yes - a majority of the *typical* Mustang buyers don't have a clue and probably wouldn't know the difference between disc brakes and drum brakes. Hell, most can't drive a stick! No, not all. But many...

Yes, that is exactly what I said. Yes, it's $1,750, but you can't get that on a GT without getting the PP for $5K.

Yes, of course it is -- as is yours. That's why they are called 'opinions'. :like: I don't take surveys of anonymous Internet posters and claim that they are anything other than opinion. I've owned numerous vehicles that had suspension systems that actively monitor and adjust dampening at each...

Agreed. However, I do see far more GTs w/PP without the MR than with it.

In a nutshell, you download the FordPass app to your phone, set up an account, then from within the app, you add your vehicle (by VIN). Be in your vehicle and have the ignition on, as the Sync system will be prompting you to confirm. My last new purchase was in 2021, but for that one and some...

Your average everyday Mustang buyer won't know anything about that - which is why they won't pony up the extra $2K when they can say 'No', have a lower car payment and not notice any difference when they drive to the grocery store or pick the kids up from day care. I'm not talking about the used...

Your typical GT buyer isn't going to track it or even drive it under conditions that warrant it. Further, I'd argue that most buyers don't even know what it is, and $2K more makes a car harder to sell to people who don't know what it is.

Blue smoke is (burned) oil. White smoke is not smoke, but water vapor (i.e., coolant). Black smoke is fuel (too rich).

I assume you signed up for FordPass and activated it (in your vehicle) after connecting it to your account?

I do as well, but it's not for performance reasons -- it's a visceral thing. :)

On another forum I frequent, we change the color of the text to inidicate something specific. For example, purple means you're being sarcastic.

Sure it is. Is the driver manually disengaging and engaging the clutch(es) in order to shift gears? Nope. It's an auto.

You said, "... 10 speed Ford autos have issues. " The life expectancy of a typical vehicle is 8 years and somewhere between 150K to 200K miles. So by your own definition, EVERY vehicle transmission that doesn't make it to 200K 'has issues', which means EVERY typical vehicle transmission 'has...

Thank you for your service!

53K miles on my current '21 10-speed. Zero issues.

LOL. Most don't consider rare situations, but I don't fault you. There are always exceptions. Seriously ... if I still had both, would I still go with the auto? More than likely no ... :like:

Affirmative. But, I'm still here, which is all that matters. ;) Got me one of them fancy robot legs with gyroscopes, accelerometers, hydraulics and all that fun stuff. It doesn't provide propulsion, but it does dampen and help me do things like go down stairs and stuff. Had just put new...

If you lose your left leg when a meth head runs you down in a '92 Buick on the side of the expressway in Cleveland, you'll quickly develop an appreciation for automatic transmission equipped vehicles.

The only place you'll want to disable it is if you take your vehicle through a car wash (with the rolling track that pushes the vehicle along). My 21 F150 has auto-hold, and the first time I went through my usual car wash, it took me about 10 seconds to figure out why it felt like the truck was...
