I‘d like to read up on torque management changes on the 22-23s. I hadn’t heard that. Got a reference or link?

What is a management lease? I’m a retired car dealer but that’s a new term to me.

Yeah, I agree with the steal of a lifetime thing. I sure do. I‘ve been working a 2-for-1 Mach 1s + cash deal to trade for a GT500 over a week now, but every time I get close to pulling the trigger I walk out in the garage and…I was actually out there last night around midnight just looking at...

Maybe one reason we are talking like the Mach 1 wasn’t close to 70K is that well, it wasn’t. And isn’t. At least not to get a great street car. The HP is completely unnecessary on the street and many say it’s not needed for an occasional track day either. I suspect this would describe the...

A result of high expectations for those few extra ponies, which apparently haven’t materialized. Kinda the opposite of the huge 10 hp loss between 2021 and 2022. Turned out to be bragging rights for the ‘21s on paper but zilch on the pavement. Heck, actual performance may have even gone the...

Yeah, I remember the good ol’ days way back in 2020 when the Black Accent Package got you a really fine looking 19” wheel…

Yeah, I’m thinking that if nobody cares there probably wouldn’t be a rear seat delete option.

So, I’m sorry but what exactly is a 1 ft. rollout? Was just regular ol’ 0-60 not good enough? It seemed fine for about a jillion years.

Actually neither. It’s for doing a spectacular job detailing your car for delivery. Sure, they should do it free but hey, he does a better job than most IMO. But your call.

That ain’t right, no way no how. And zero chance I’d want it once “fixed”. No good way to fix it. Do you want a new car with panels painted and blended on both sides? And as far as PDR is concerned, large stressed panels like doors, hoods and roof panels tend to pop back out to their damaged...

Wow. They‘re certainly gonna be happy to see you coming through the door. So I’m guessing you think the delays are the dealer’s fault and it’d be appropriate to punish him for his transgressions? If you care about a relationship with the dealer you might want to rethink your strategy. But...

Greene Ford is a terrific dealer. They’ll be happy to remove the decal for you, just ask them. But do it now before it sets up. When you take delivery there will be an older detail fellow standing around with some spray and a rag doing a final polish. I forget his name but he’s a really good...

Beautiful and terrific color choices! Love the red calipers and NPP!

Unless there’s been a sea change since MY2023 (doubtful) it isn’t the angle and lighting, trust me. I’ve bought 5 new ones, all GTs and/or Machs since 2020. Just when I thought the gaps might be getting a little better they got worse. I usually just quietly suck it up but the all-around hood gap...

It‘s older than that, going back to the late ‘60s when Pontiac put the Endura bumper on the GTO. You just got used to it, no big deal. Some colors were worse than others, like the Verdoro green. Heck, it was ugly to start with. I figure if the problem hasn’t been fixed in 50+ years there’s a...

Would the extra cooling features on the “old” Mach 1 have helped keep things cooler?

Um yeah, OK. It may (or may not?) run “fine” on 87 but who cares? I say again, it just seems silly to me to buy a performance vehicle and then not be able or willing to feed it what it needs to get that performance you paid for. What a waste! Yeah, it’s cheaping out for sure. If you genuinely...

For the life of me I cannot understand the mentality of buying a high performance car but then cheaping out on the fuel that will have it running it’s best. I just don’t get it. At all. That‘s why God invented Kias.

Yeah they came with my ’20 but I’ve never used them once. Too lazy and the car looks fine without them IMO.

I live in North GA. I don’t know of any horrible taxes and there certainly aren’t any rules that don’t exist in other places. One of the reasons I love it here is because it isn’t overcrowded and there’s some breathing room and prices are cheap-ish. I’ve never been accosted by a “water boy” at a...
