Not really interested in ecoboost cars or base cars but now I am curious, what were the changes made (if any) to the 2024 ecoboost over prior years? I thought it was just a carryover engine that didn't get touched?

Haha right!? Only 10 in that entire date range. Seems likely there might be more to come.

LOL this is Ford we are talking about... leader in most sales recalls. 10 right now but give it a few weeks and that 10 will quickly turn into 10,000. "At Ford, QwALitY is job one none." 🤣

They look fine. Something different for sure. Looks like the same flat black/charcoal gray color as on the lower front grille of the ecoboost.

I like the idea OP! Nice tribute to your father. Aesthetically, I would only do 1 on each side though. Personally, I like the one on the lower side skirt better than below the 5.0 badge.

I can confirm, I do get annoyed with myself. As someone with a 8.3L V10 Viper and a 5.0L Mustang as the daily driver, I find myself looking in the mirror at my reflection wondering why I do so much stupid shit.

You can probably clean them with spray wax products but I don't really think there is a need to wax the interior bits unless you are a fanatic. The likely hood of them getting scratched up is probably slim but if you like the shininess then go for it.

Could it be a vacuum leak by chance?

Nice car and great options. 👍 R.I.P. six speed though. 😢

Good things come to those that wait. Since you are impatient, you should definitely go out and buy a version of the car you didn't really want and probably overspend for that less-than-desired configuration. Good luck.

LOL why don't you head to the plant, hop the fence and take one of those puppies home. 🤣 🤣 🤣 That is how some peeps got GT500s. https://www.thedrive.com/news/43514/thieves-steal-four-ford-mustang-shelby-gt500s-from-flat-rock-assembly-plant

There are automotive degreasers out there, similar to a Goo-Gone product but formulated to be safe on automotive paint. I forget the brand that I have at home but it works great. Use a product like that to get the grease off then wash the spot. It will come out.

You absolutely want to play around withe EQ settings. I believe they all are set to the middle by default. I turned the bass down a bit and increased treb. Fits my taste based on the 80s pop/rock I usually listen to.

This was interesting to watch for sure! You mention this was based on 2011 criteria in your message. If this is true, then I think the testers may need to update their crasher car to resemble a midsized SUV. Cars are much larger and heavier in 2024+ compared to the midsized sedan that was still...

LOL yes check for those suspension blocks as Sofa King mentioned. Check for paint imperfections and any small amount of damage that might have occurred during transporting the vehicle. ... Also check to make sure you have both Dark Horse seats and 2 matching taillights. 🤣...

Its the Coyote tick. Everything is fine, nothing to worry about. Just drive as you normally would.

I've never used anything other than full synthetic oil. I also do my own oil changes so I pick the exact oil and filter that the manual says to use.

lol great work here but this might be contributing to the rise in insurance rate premiums we all complain about. 🤣 While you stick it to them, they stick it right back to us.

I agree, just follow the damn manual. Oh, and change the oil regularly.

Great info! How much does it typically cost to hire a company to try to get more money from the insurance provider?
