Adding insult to injury..... If one were to pay attention to a smattering of YouTube videos, you'd believe GM is coming out with a half dozen new cars, all using a version of the Corvette's LT6 ICE. Of course, you'd also know Dolly Parton and half of Hollywood died just yesterday! These...

A little over a month ago, we had a major flood. The current total cost (estimated I'm sure) is $2.5 billion! The Ford dealer is just south of the Spring river, and sits on one of the lowest points in Roswell. They lost about 25 new vehicles including two Mustangs, and a bunch of used ones as...

According to popular think, I'm from Mars! Since I live in Roswell, NM, maybe I am from Mars!?

Personally, whomever came up with the chime (if you could call it that) was clever. The tum-tum-tum, sped up, sound just like the sounds of a horse galloping. https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/search/galloping%20horse/ This link should work... Select the third sound down.

Well, you could have ordered from Roswell Ford (New Mexico), and had your pride and joy underwater for about 24 hours!

I'd certainly get under it, and check the u joints and mounts if nothing else.

Holy moly Batman, as Robin would say! At that price, someone will surely step up to the plate! The pricing sort of reminds me of the audioholics who pay $500 for a 3 foot power cord, then swear it makes a difference! I also would like to know the shipping costs?

The truth of the matter is, we're all lucky to be driving a pony car. Chevy quit, Dodge and Chrysler quit, and both will never return me thinks.

Considering the monies I might make if I still had my old vacuum molding table, perhaps I should look around for one. The hardest part is making the actual mold. Just think. Left and right covers made from clear acrylic. Or perhaps body colored ones if you could find the material.

I don't own a GT, but I have to assume the main reason for the wheel hop is the sudden application of torque (popping the clutch in other words). I can't say I've even seen a 10R80 do it, but they might depending on the launch practice.

Smurf is correct! The ONLY way to completely disable it, is to remove the dyno plug. That's not such a good idea, because if you forget to plug it back in, you won't have ANY safety controls. One might complain about that, but it is best to think before you leap.

Perhaps there should be another open thread about using or not using traction and/or stability controls? When my Eco-Boost was delivered, it had 283 miles on the OD (dealer to dealer driven), so I wasn’t worried about pushing it hard. It didn’t take long to figure out that turning off the...

I didn't fill them per se. I installed mug flaps instead which covers them up.

According to one internet site, the average speed on the Autobahn is 135 kPH or about 80 MPH. Speaking only for myself, I won't drive over 80 MPH on the highway even in Texas where that limit is often ignored. It is a combination of alertness (sign of danger vs. reaction time), stopping...

Well, I wonder if GKman got his Mustang? Maybe they still wanted 25% over the MSRP?

During the utter idiocy of the Covid political panic, I would have said yes. At this late date, I doubt it regardless of the production number.

My Eco-Boost is dead stock without any add-on spoilers. So far, I haven't damaged anything under the car. I hope it stays that way. As a sidelight: My 2019 Ranger rides quieter with a whole lot less road noise than my 2024 Eco-Boost Mustang. In fact, if there was only one thing I don't like...

Recently, just in passing, I made mention that my new WeatherTech floor mats 'at least fit', with a reference to my 2019 Ranger's mats that never did! My comment caught the eye of WeatherTech's Customer Relations department. With out a lot of superfluous verbiage, they replaced the front mats...

I'm into cozy too! The seats being heated are nice, but the cooling is noisy! The heated steering wheel is nice too, and quick!

Instead, stick a remote thermometer under the hood above the engine, and measure the difference with and without the cover!
