Not Mustang related, but curious on the F150 suspension upgrades.
I had an ‘04 Lariat FX4 that I put Bilsteins on at ~175k and they were a huge improvement to the worn out OEM. It is running strong at 290K (sold to a friend who still tows with it) on the same suspension. I had a similar...
I did the billetworx teardrop shift knob because the stock one was not substantial enough, disappeared in my hand. Easy and definitely an improved shifting experience.
A modern new car's electronic power assist will never feel as good as peak hydraulic steering, which is what I see a lot of the reviewers comparing it to.
Vs new BMW steering, which I am pretty familiar with and test drove Ms prior to pulling the trigger on my car, the steering is more direct...
Having recently jumped back in a manual with a GT that has exceeded my expectations, I’m definitely not giving it up. But I will give up something else to have a different experience…I’ll figure out what that is when I get there🙄
Kudos to Ford for keeping enthusiast cars going in their line up.
Track car was my next stop, and this is a great evolution of the current platform. I am definitely a customer.
The stock knob disappeared in my hand. This one feels better in every way, and I can’t say I have noticed it was much higher.
But looking at my install pics it appears to be about an inch taller. I did start with the lock nut all the way down so it is as low as it goes.
I think the comparison further proves the GT’s uniqueness as the last Pony car standing. Throttle House’s other video on the gas Charger shows it better.
An AWD version that competes with this Charger would be cool. It’s probably more Ecoboost RTR than GT based. But at that point you are likely...
Chiming in on the fawning over Euro electronics. I have BMWs with the newest iDrive 9 (android based) and 8.5. Both have issues losing settings with OTA updates.
iDrive is amazing in its features, but I spend most of the time in Car Play. The iDrive 9 drives my wife nuts with the complexity...
this.
I've got a few inches on you, and the rear view was one of the first thing I noticed when I sat down to get my seating position right. The left trick made it adequate with the top up. And it is great with the top down which is the vast majority of my driving.
I hope everyone has a great 2026!
Getting prepped for tonight with a top down B2E2RUN that it is not warm enough for 😁 …
and a dog restraint test fit for this man’s best friend.
It will be a great year
Not sure of the context, but I'll answer 2 ways.
Me- I think it is a cool addition to the car. Using it- eventually, end of tire life probably. I am hoping that it is part of the Mustang track experience in Charlotte when I do it.
Son- If he gets competent, I'll pay for him to go to Charlotte...
