  1. Steering Wheel Not Centered

    not only do they have to center the wheel, normally done by adjusting the tie rods, they also have to re calibrate the steering angle sensor to read the correct value when the wheels are pointing straight ahead. If the SAS and actual position of the steering don't match the car will think it...
  2. FICO score needed for Ford Credit top tier financing rate?

    yep, it is fee money, until you realize that the people pricing the goods and services you are purchasing are adding the cost of the credit card transactions to the price. That is why gas stations can give 10 cents a gallon off the posted price for cash sales. That is about 3% off in most...

  5. 2024 Mustang GT Premium vs 2021 Corvette Stingray 2LT

    those C8's are an INCREDIBLE bang for the buck as far as performance I have adaptive cruise in 3 of my cars, including the Mustang, I rarely use it. How often do you think you are going to use it if your estimated usage is 6000 miles a year? The only thing I will caution you about WRT the C8...

  7. Ford CEO Drives a Chinese Not A Ford EV?

    Still has to get past the Feds, Ford M plate or not, they do let grey market cars in except under very limited circumstances, letting the CEO of Ford have one for a toy is not going to pass muster with the Feds Now that this has gotten out, and is not a very good look for the company, I bet it...
  8. Cams and Tunes available for Dark Horse Mustang?

    Nobody has released any tuning software for the 2024 GT yet, except Whipple who developed the Ford Performance Supercharger kit, and now somehow Roush has a tune for their forced induction unit. When you see what it takes to do cams in this motor you'll think twice about doing it unless the...
  9. Ford CEO Drives a Chinese Not A Ford EV?

    I'd love to know how he got it into the country and past the Feds who routinely refuse to allow foreign cars that are not certified to US specifications (one company had to recall their cars because the high beam indicator was not to US standards). Big things would be certification to emissions...

    The Dealer files a claim against the trucking company The trucking company (Driver) signs for each car, he/she inspects it before they are allowed to load it on the trailer, no driver will take a damaged car and I mean the slightest imperfection because they don't want to be blamed for the...

  14. New ZR1 hit 233mph

    Kudos to GM The C8 is an engineering marvel, and as far as bang for the buck, show me another car that gives that level of performance ( at any trim/option level) for the buck.
  15. Break in period?

    The piston ring material and or coating on the rings has made breaking the rings in a thing of the past. Roller cams and overhead cams don't require the lifters to be broken in either. I do like to get a few heat cycles into the materials and let the oil circulate, I don't abuse my cars but I...
  16. Will an S550 Strut Tower Brace fit on an S650?

    Well it looks like Ford decided to do some sort of an update on my car. The last one was on 7/4/2024 Still don't have the April release with the gauge display options. 6.4.2 IIRC I thought it was funny when I got in the car today and it was asking about settings for rear seat passengers. It...

  20. TPMS Reset

    Most cars have a button somewhere. I have not had to look for mine yet so sorry not much help Ford uses the same TPMS sensor on a bunch of cars so there has to be a easy wat to tell the computer what the tire pressure needs to be for the specified tire and weight on any one of the vehicles...
