  1. OEM v.s. OEE windshield?

    I’m not sure about this. I’ve had the misfortune of busting 2x OEM windshields on the Rap (they’re made in China, like c*vid) One of them was a total freakin’ mystery, the 2nd was a SOLID hit on the S. Padre Island causeway bridge. Gorilla glass is supposed to be available for the Rap, but I...
  2. Gauge screen died

    There are usually some precursor indicators that there is low charge. 1) the passenger side intelligent access stops working. stick your hand in the handle and no response. 2) you press start and there is a hollow, tinny do-do-do from the center speaker Those tell you right away if there’s a...
  3. My X-pipe to HH-pipe swap experience

    Between 3 motorcycles, 2 Mustangs & a Lightning I’ve got... somewhere north of 200 dyno runs. Every. Single. Time. I perceived a low end improvement it was exactly the opposite - a dip in the torque curve was introduced, resulting in a flat spot where power doesn’t increase or may dip...
  4. US Commerce Proposes Chinese Vehicle Soft/Hardware Ban

    Not for nothing, but all major manufacturers gather all manner of telemetry data, and offer it for sale to data brokers, where it’s purchased by insurance companies, who use it to justify raising your rates...
  5. S650 Aftermarket Sound System

    IIRC, when the system detects low battery, whether there is or isn’t low battery ;-) the ā€˜chimes’, bells, dings, bells and what not will come through the center speaker. IF you were to disconnect in factory, you’d likely have none of them with low battery, right? Now, with a DSP, not sure...
  6. 2024 Mustang GT Quality Control

    And this is the rub negotiating on ā€œallocationā€ vehicles. Shady, money grubbing folks will cancel the deal at the drop of a hat. And they will drop the hat. In this case, it was over negotiating the market, but in all reality, he probably couldn’t afford the extra $$$ over MSRP and decided to...
  7. Speed limiter 140mph?????

    I know exactly what you’re talking about. https://www.chron.com/news/slideshow/fatal-drag-race-in-maryland-26696.php This happened not far from where I grew up. Every Friday night in the summer, sometimes Saturday and just like you said, local LE were frequenters of this event. More than...
  8. Reverse brake assist warning

    Yeah, the only reason I went after this was it kept drawing my attention and it was routine. I don’t like ā€œjust ignoringā€ dash prompts. So I went lookin for it and saw it was a toggled feature ... Only I don’t have the toggle option anywhere ! And it took a few tries to get this to stick so...
  9. Reverse brake assist warning

    I didn’t see this mentioned... Since buying my Dark Horse in July, every time I put the car in reverse I’d get a pop up: ā€œReverse Brake Assist disabledā€ with an ā€œOKā€ prompt. I’ve not really had any problems reversing the car so I put it off and finally got around to it today. It was bit...
  10. 2024 Mustang GT Quality Control

    I want to emphasize up front that I’m not trying to rub salt in an open wound, and I don’t mean to throw shade on you, and I don’t mean this as a personal attack. What I’m about to type is harsh, but should serve as a warning to other buyers / people with orders pending. You should never have...
  11. S650 Tail Light covers ?

    Just watch out for the ā€œdrive by brailleā€ crowd.
  12. Why would you do that? - A thread

    I think when we’re 17, anything with 2 or more wheels and a motor with > 200cc’s sounds awesome.
  13. S650 Tail Light covers ?

    That’s great. Can others see you, including in rain or fog?
  14. Controlling AC

    A/C on unexpectedly - stealership updated TL;DR - Your Mustang decides when to run the AC, not you.
  15. Gauge screen died

    IDK if it will work like the center screen but... Last week, I started up my ’17 Raptor, and was in a hurry. I started with the buttons before sync finished starting up and boom. For only the 2nd time, I had a stuck screen in sync- Radio was on, could not change it, no interactivity. So...
  16. Chipped Windshield

    That fĆŗcking sucks. My Raptor got nailed on the South Padre Island causeway bridge by a pretty sizable rock kicked up from a vehicle in front of us, putting a foot long crack in the driver’s side. Despite 2 previous disappointments, I went to a safelite. what a charlie foxtrot that was. I...
  17. Ford Patents System for In-Vehicle Advertisements

    ā€œObey traffic laws, use voice commands while driving. Please proceed to the ..." ā€œDo you suffer from vaginal dryness? Thousands of women swear by this product! ..." yeah, this is going to go well.
  18. Buying off the showroom floor

    For all practical purposes, it shouldn’t make a difference. if the car was outside, big deal it got rained / snowed on. Unless they were out doing donuts in the snow, with the salt/brine mix, what is being outside going to do? And yeah, if it was inside, there’s probably a lot of slobber...
