  1. Road Insanity

    Divided four lane, coming out of a gas station driveway, I think not seeing me would indicate a problem with their seeing eye dog. More than likely, they were not paying attention to driving. Their phone, passengers, radio or the air between their ears; anything but driving
  2. My First Near-Horrible Accident – A Moment I’ll Never Forget

    Don’t get me started on bison. They had bison at Ft. Riley when I was growing up there. As a prolific hiker, I would often wander around the hills. After going through a very strong barb wire fence, I soon realized my mistake. A 16ā€ boy can go through a 10ā€ wire gap if he is fast enough and...
  3. My First Near-Horrible Accident – A Moment I’ll Never Forget

    There is no telling what learning experiences you can find. Try cruising in a town 50 miles from your grandparents, in their car, and getting suckered into peeling out at a light. The town cop just happened to be right behind you, and then it turns out he is an old fishing buddy of your...
  4. Road Insanity

    I would have posted this in the ā€˜near death’ posting, but it was getting too far off track. Besides which, I doubt too many Mustang drivers have not had a ā€œcome to Jesusā€ moment or two. Less than two weeks on my GT and I was heading to OKC for an appointment. Just before the I-35 junction doing...
  5. Projector - Puddle light - fell out

    Happened to both mirrors on my 2019. First time the dealer replaced the light. When it happened again, they replaced the whole mirror assembly on the assumption it the opening was slightly off. It still didn’t last long.
  6. 30mpg in a GT ! Who needs a Ecoboost ?

    I love getting high mpg, but not as much as my foot likes pushing down. My first tank, I got 20 mpg. It would get easier if I don’t drive 85 mph too much.
  7. Ford's getting back into passenger cars

    A car doesn’t need to be exciting. That is what the Mustang is for. What Ford needs is a low cost starter car with enough power to make a young person smile. A budget model, probably hybrid and the 2.3L EcoBoost hot version.
  8. Vanity License Plates

    My Twister Special Tribute is MACH 1T. I should have gone with MACH XT since everyone thinks that it has an I instead of a 1. My 2025 is going to be 60ANNE. BTW, the T in 1T stands for Tribute/Turbo/Twister or just T.
  9. Unofficial 2025 60th Anniversary Edition Mustang Registry

    #1614 Vapor Blue coupe, non-Brembo, Automatic, 401, Active Exhaust. Ordered 7/17/24 - Received 7/14/25
  10. Discount when ordering?

    Green Country Ford in Vinita, OK. I have bought all of my Mustangs there.
  11. Discount when ordering?

    I can tell you about a 2024 in ember blue that may be a good buy. If you buy it off the lot, Ford is offering 0% APR to my understanding.
  12. After 330 days, its built

    It's hard to imagine any company that is as screwy as Ford's delivery system. They changed my due week several times over the last month. Tuesday was a bad day for several reasons, included an update that my car was moved back another week (July 25) I wake up Thursday morning and get a call that...
  13. State Troopers pulling for no reason!

    And red cars are twice as likely to get pulled over. Ask my BIL. He has three red Mustangs. Most cops are professionals and are more concerned with keeping people safe on the road. And they are human. As long as you don't create or make a bad day worse, you stand a chance of reprieve. Give them...
  14. State Troopers pulling for no reason!

    What must be remembered is that anyone driving a Mustang at or under the speed limit is instantly suspicious. Most of the problems are with hole in the wall towns running speed traps. It got bad enough in Oklahoma that they made it the law if more than X% of the revenue is from driving arrests...
  15. What direction should the next generation mustang styling go in?

    Sorry, but car size has little to do with emission standards or fuel economy regulations. That is why everyone has gone to SUVs, is because they fall under truck standards which is less stringent. This might be part of the reason behind the Mustang Mach E is they found some way to offset the...
  16. Engine dress up. Is it too much?

    When I bought my 2019, I was into national Mustang shows and wanted to create something unique. I found that it was easy to create, but hard to maintain. Some modifications do not work well with street use. Ever have an encounter with an armadillo and a low spoiler?:shock: Not to mention parking...
  17. Engine dress up. Is it too much?

    Here is the only convenient picture I have of my 2019. I had the engine cover, intake cover and strut caps painted. The strut caps have the ponies painted black. It really makes the engine compartment pop.
  18. Engine dress up. Is it too much?

    The melting point is determined by the composition of the plastic. It is likely that they will hold up just fine. I hope so, I just ordered one.
  19. Hey Ford!

    "Some of the best forms of entertainment is watching entitled people not get their way 100% of the time especially boomers." I don't what makes you think I'm entitled or that I consider myself entitled, but I started with nothing but a high school education and a work ethic. If that is...
  20. What direction should the next generation mustang styling go in?

    The upcoming Ferrari Amalfi is the type of look that could be morphed into the new Mustang. Size it SN95 and use the distinctive Mustang styling cues. The 4.6L fit into the SN95, so the 5.0L should also with good engineering. Also don't forget that while the 5.0L is what the general public...
