I know many say to drive it hard from day one and no break in is required. My thoughts are it’s probably wise to follow what is said in the owner’s manual. Right or wrong, I don’t figure taking it easy is going to cause any damage, but pushing it too hard from the start could. Will it cause...
Choice is a great thing considering people have different likes. I previously had a 2019 Mustang GT PP and sold it. When looking at the S650 I considered getting a Mach 1, but I just could not bring myself to buy it with that dash and interior. The interior was the part it disliked the most...
That’s why I always negotiate the out the door price, even when trading. I don’t care what line they put the numbers on as long as the bottom line number is to my liking. I’ll pay a doc fee as long as they discount the price of the car.
This is how I’ve bought every car for the last 10 years. I make sure I have an out the door price before I even show up to discuss price. If I need to test drive, I test drive then leave and email or call to finalize pricing. I had a bottom line price on my Mustang order, and the dealer tried to...
The short answer is yes. I have three different sounds. One sounds like a creaking from the back of the car which corresponds to dips or bumps in the road. It’s only at slow speeds and when it is colder outside. I’m thinking it may be tied to the stuff I have in the trunk (car seat and...
A couple of thoughts.
1. It could be they are increasing your rates due to your age. I know on our church vehicle policy they will not allow any driver over either age 72 or 75 ( I can’t remember the exact age). Obviously they consider drivers of a certain age to be a high risk.
2. USAA does...
When I was a kid/teenager I loved the Corvettes. As I’ve gotten older my likes have changed to more of a muscle car style versus sports car. The C8 is an absolutely great car from everything I hear, and if someone gave me one, I’d happily take and drive it. However, it’s just not what I’d choose...
I’ve only driven one S550 and that was my 2019 GT. I wouldn’t have described the 10R80 in it as feeling broken, or even bad; it just felt like it was not as responsive or smooth as I would have liked, and its gear choice wasn’t always what I thought best. I always drove it in sport mode so it...
I picked mine up 9/1/23. No issues at all except 2 times the infotainment screen did not come on. Both times turning the car off and on resolved it. Very good panel fitment and no paint issues.
An alignment should fix it provided the camber has enough adjustment available. Any time you change the springs the car needs an alignment. Lowering gives more negative camber, so the top of the wheel is tilted further into the wheel well. I’ve always added camber plates when lowering to give...
I have no issues with auto start/stop in theory, even on the Mustang since it has a button to disable it. However, I have had three other vehicles with that function and I hate it in each one for the same two reasons.
1. The delay when letting off the brake. When I’m waiting to turn out of a...
