Itās crazy how service quality at every dealer is wildly different.
My dealer service so far has been great with both cars and they are always extremely concerned that we can give a 5 star review when surveyed by Ford.
The dirty hands is one thing, but I think I have a reason for the oil amounts. Since Ford revised the oil pan, oil capacity is now 9.5 qts. as stated in my 2025 manualā¦.so he diligently put in 9.5 qts and left you the extra half qt.
Supposedly having the oil in the middle between the 2 dots on...
Iām to the point of not being sure what Iām sure of. The more I know, the more I know what I donāt know.
I do know LouG is secretly a cool kid, just trying to be cool about it. :sunglasses:
Ryan agreed with me? š³ Well, lookyā¦. thereās an open seat at the cool kidās table. :sunglasses:
But youāre wrong on one thingā¦.Iām nuttier than squirrel shitā¦. :crazy: But I put up a good front.ā¦lol.
But seriously, I also wouldnāt say there is a huge difference in track exhaust, but...
We are talking about only changing the exhaust setting, not Drive setting.
Some here including myself, think just setting the exhaust to Track also advances timing or throttle response. How else does it add 6 hp?
Since I bought the car, I have yet to experience a day under 80Ė and humid without running the A/C.
Looking forward to cooler weather so see how the car runs thenā¦.
No, I mean if you transported todayās Mustang back to 2005. 486 hp with all the bells and whistles as well as IRS and variable exhaust. The car is like a rolling toy store. It would have blown minds if todayās car existed in 2005.
Maybe Camaro had advanced quicker, but thanks to that, it...
The 1980, the great Corvette produced an underwhelming 190 hp with the neutered 305.
The 1982 Mustang GT 5.0 High Output Engine put out a laughable 157 hp.
In 1987 the Buick Grand National was the quickest American production car for that year boasting 245 hp which required turbo V6
My 1991...
Octane is primarily an anti-knock rating, the secondary benefit is more hp as the timing can advance with higher octane.
Ford says do not run lower than 87 octane, so yes, 87 is the bare minimum. But guess what they also say?
Seems Ford has already decided what is better for your carā¦
I stated that exact thought a few weeks back. I thought throttle response was much more instant with just setting the exhaust to Track Mode. Others tried a comparison and didnāt experience what I thought I was going on.
So, some think it makes no difference, but I thought it did more than...
Yupā¦put it in paddle mode and run it in like 5th gear. Running above 3500 RPM and then goosing the throttle will give you a noticeable steady push in the back.
Or put it in Sport Mode, it holds gears longer while you use the paddles.
