I guess I'm a spoilsport. An Eco-Boost can be a real handful on full tilt. I can only imagine what 800+ HP added to the equation?

I think one of the biggest issues about EVs is their insurance costs. Fact is, some insurers will not cover losses if they're parked inside a structure. Even when they do cover them, the price is extraordinarily high, as in only Elon can afford the cost!

Funny. Fox used to be the go-to company for rugged multi plate clutches. You almost don't hear about them any more.

Love is a very splendid thing indeed!

As long a the engine isn't a Cadillac-esque V8/10/12!

If it is like the Eco-Boost, the engine will run cooler with it off.

When the weather gets as bad as the vid shows, I stay the heck home! Yes, I'm retired!

Based solely o the photos, I agree that is too close. I have a Borla made, Ford supplied exhaust on my Ranger. I too was worried about the closeness, but the Ranger setup is about 1/4 inch, not 1/16 like the photo shows.

Personal opinion. When you get to any point which pushes the limit, it is time to hire a professional! Supercharging (turbo or blower) isn't about 'Oh let's add two pounds of boost and see what happens' scenario! All it takes is just one piston pre detonating due to a lean condition, and pow...

Oh boy, here I go again... 10R80 If you're one of these guys who is caught up into the stop light derby mentality, then I guess the manual is the way to go. This said, most of us use our Mustangs as daily drivers (I'm not full time as I own a Ranger too), and rowing a manual box is rush hour...

Break in periods these days aren't much more than hold overs from yesteryear. You do want things to wear in like rings, but that specific issue was over in about 5 minutes. What is most important is that YOU get broken in! If you check around, you'll find out that the first thousand miles or so...

What if we found out, that by removing the screen, classic Mustang analog gauges were underneath?

It is all noise pollution! Interesting side point. About the only 'attribute' electric cars (seemingly) have, is they're quiet. However, I recently had a chance to witness a Tesla Plaid rip off a 0 to 60 dash. Aside from the tire noise, the screech from the mechanicals is awe inspiring, but not...

Mine hasn't needed an oil change yet, but when it does I won't worry. Maybe the dealer guy will, but not me!

I bet it didn't sound like smooth butter?

The voltage changes because the alternator output is governed by the Battery Monitoring System (BMS). Occasionally, the BMS tests the battery's State of Charge (SoC) and Depth of Charge (DoC). It unloads the alternator (disables charging), measures the voltage and current, and over time the drop...

With a little math and the cam specs available on line, you can calculate the max equivalent overlap of a Coyote 5.0. I won't give it away, but anyone doing the exercise will be surprised!

There are always two things every village has. One of course is the idiot, and the other a genius. We obviously know which one we're dealing with here!

Upfront... I'm not a pundit of overly-restrictive EPS rules and regulations. Some are good, some are extreme cases of bourgeois oligarchs exercising their control over us proletariats! (The emphasis' on Lenin is intended!) The burble, rumble, rattle, pops, and bangs we (collectively) like to...
