Though I have had aluminum caps for over a year on my wifeās Lincoln and they come off easyā¦.so far. I may have to rethink them.
In my 06 Mustang all I had was radio/CD player. So I always just cranked up Helmet and Black Sabbath. In my 6CD changer 3 CDās never left , Master of Reality, and Helmetās Aftertaste and Betty.
Now with my 2025 GT, I have Xm and Bluetooth access to my phoneās library, so I am overwhelmed with...
I have read that auto manufacturers are going to do away with the auto stop feature, since regulations have relaxed a bit, and consensus is that itās a stupid feature that does next to nothing but irritate the driver.
It MAY be possible that a future over-the air update could possibly make...
Without repeating the great info here. I personally use the Battery Tender by Deltran. It charges the battery until it hits itās peak then goes into trickle mode. You can leave it on the battery indefinitely.
To answer the OP question, that is about what the Ford Performance maintainer does...
Under the red cover is a nice flat blade to attach the positive cable, just up and to the left a little is a negative ground post sticking up. Makes it really easy to safely attach the Battery Tender alligator clips to.
That sucks! Electrical gremlins are the worst.
Keep taking it in and if not fixed, know your lemon laws. Good luck! Hope you get it resolved.

Thants what I did. I got The āofficialā rear spoiler sold at Fordās website. Held on only by a strip of 3M tape and silicone. I didnāt get enough silicone on the back of the spoiler and it was lifting in the back. I inserted some strips of 3M tape and locked it down with that. Itās on solid...
Ken:
That Roushcharged is beautiful! Still had traditional gages instead of digital? I thought Iād hate the new digital dash, but once behind the wheel, it didnāt bother me so much.
Steve:
Thanks! maybe Iāll make some louver converts hereā¦.lol. They also keep the interior cooler in summer...
Ciulster.:
That sucks your locality makes getting the louvers such a Pain. If you go to www.americanmuscle.com, thereās a ton of reader submitter photos of those louvers in place. But if buying, www.cjponyparts.com has them cheaper.
Thanks for the kind words! I was afraid those louvers...
Jeeptrix:
Thanks! That spoiler on my 06 Gt is the stock GT spoiler. I just removed it and painted it Dupont Satin Black.
Kris:
Thanks as well! I had no plans to buy silver. I once had a black and silver Prowlerā¦.rare Black Tie edition. I wasnāt planning on getting silver then either. But...
Thanks! Yes, I have been reading opinions on rear louvers for these cars (on Reddit) and am surprised at the hate some have for them. As much as I wanted them, at first I was also hesitant about ruining the sleek look the car has. Once they were on, I was likeā¦āOK, I can do thisā
Yes, auto...
RLE55: Thanks! These are held on by 6 acorn nuts mounted to 6 aluminum posts on plates 3M taped to the rear window. Not as convenient as my older hinged ones I had on my ā06, but oh wellā¦.lol.
goodlettjr: lolā¦.Thanks as well! Thereās a fine line between tasteful and tacky sometimes. But I...
Without reading 8 pages here, Iāll just mention that when you set your custom driving profile, you can choose to toggle off the Auto Stop, and have that as part of the profile. So I start the car, toggle the left side button on the steering wheel from default Normal, up one to my profile #1, and...
Thanks Frogdog!
I know people are passionate about their car here, and I just absorb all the info and experiences I am reading here, and sort of make a consensus decision.
Personally my break-in is try not to exceed 4,000 RPM, And vary RPMās while driving long shots for the first 1,000...
Thanks all!
Ewagsā¦..Exactly! Silver is not a rare color, yet I have seen very few posted on forums or on the street.
It seems most popular color has been Vapor Blue and Black for 2025.
I was bummed Ford discontinued 4 very nice colors After 2024. I might have got that nice metallic red, or...
