Past Consumer Reports member surveys showed that car owners typically paid more for the coverage than they got back in direct benefits. This isn’t surprising, because extended warranties make a lot of money for those who sell them.
“The fact is, extended warranties are overpriced. That’s the...
Did you have it shipped directly to the dealership, and were they OK with that? Would seem like an unnecessary hassle to order a 200 pound part to your house and then have to transport it to an installer.
Is the warranty from the vehicle's purchase date and original mileage, or from the date of...
No performance package, but it was configured with red brembo's, 3.55 limited slip, and happened to have a front strut bar (stock with all GTs?).
I actually preferred to have all-weather tires instead of the summer tires that come with the performance pack. Also, I bought separately a set of...
Right, this was my first V8 car, so I was probably a little uncomfortable the first few weeks of driving it because I wasn't used to just giving the gas half throttle and the car jumping forward so much. On the acceleration side, I have to be careful when it's wet outside because I've lost...
I got the Chicco NextFit Zip car seat since it was rated the highest by Consumer Reports. It's massive in size, and after installing it rear-facing, there's probably no way I could get my 2-year old daughter in-and-out of it without putting the convertible top down haha.
When you hear the phrase "family car", a mustang probably isn't the first car thst comes to mind, but for my wife, my 2-year old, and I, we made it work this weekend, and we did it in style!
Mustangs aren't known for their spacious back seats, but I was able to fit our toddler seat in the back...
Any ideas for what suspension you want to swap for?
I have a 24 GT and love it, but i don't like that when you turn the steering wheel there's not an immediate response from the wheels. Makes it feel more like a "comfort" car than a sports car.
Also not a fan of how when you hit the gas the...
Admittedly, I'm not as familiar with the camaro's suspension as the mustang's, although my understanding, and correct me if I'm wrong, is that both have MacPherson struts in the front and a multi-link rear suspension, both have advanced damping systems, and both have electronic steering assist...
We're getting off topic, although I'll give the camaro with the 1LE track package this: It has more aggressive suspension tuning and better grip, making it superior for the track.
If you're not primarily driving it at the track though, I would suggest that the mustang GT has a better balance...
Probably not a popular take, but if you want something faster than the prev gen GT, get something other than a mustang. There are several zippy little 2 seaters avilable that cost the same or less, that don't weigh as much, have quicker 0-60 times, and get better gas mileage.
Or, the mustang...
That's what I was thinking too. You can get a bone stock GT and install a whipple supercharger for 800HP for less than $70K, and I presume a GT500 would be $80K+ which is Corvette and Porsche territory.
I actually waited for the price of the Shelby super snakes to come out because I probably...
Did some clicking around, and found you can get a whipple supercharger from Lethal Performance for about $1,000 off with their code, which is a sweet deal!
Ford might be trying to increase earnings per share by increasing profitability. Ford's stock is doing not-so-great right now. I haven't dug into the details but my guess would be that they're taking a hit from lack of interest on EV's:
It's fine. Nobody buys a mustang for the sound system. I probably wouldn't have paid extra for my b&o system, but it came with the high equipment package so I got it anyway, and can't complain.
For city driving, I love the sound of my GT's engine and don't want the music so loud that it drowns...
