Made this iron-on for a t-shirt for my daughter but realized I could do a different shade of pink to better match her outfits. (Fatherhood alters a gearhead’s mind in inexplicable ways, I tell you.) It’s an extra so I’m offering it free to anyone willing to pick it up in West Toronto or cover...

I have big trees above my driveway and no garage (yet) so I’ve been using a leaf blower once or twice per day to blow the springtime tree garbage off my GT ‘vert. I have PPF on the front clip and ceramic on the rest and it’s still going to need a proper wash at least weekly because of all the...

Looks nice! Exponentially more air? How did you measure that?

I might have ordered a Dark Horse convertible but after a few months of ownership I’m realizing I barely ever get a chance to use all 486hp available from the GT. So given what the convertible option cost, I’m good for now.

My Job 2 front wheel well liners had the stupid gravel collection holes, so that opportunity was passed up.

Is anyone aware of a minimum amount of time that passes between this issue occurring and a subsequent successful start? i.e. maybe some sort of reset happens on its own with the key out of range? Until the problem gets solved, this might be useful knowledge.

I didn't think to because it wasn't behaving like any late-model car I've seen with a dead battery or a bad terminal connection (I've experienced a few). There wasn't any relay/solenoid clicking to be heard at all when you hit the start button. All other functions (infotainment, power seat...

Post dealer visit update: So of course the car started fine at the dealership and there were no useful codes for them to read (just the "loss of communication" DTCs). I had video of what happened so I didn't have an issue proving the existence of the problem. The technician suspects it's...

Same thing just happened to me this morning. Strapped my daughter into her car seat, went to start the car: Service Vehicle Soon Full Accessory Power Active Hill Start Assist Not Available Service AdvanceTrac Pre-Collision Assist Not Available After 3-4 attempts, I gave up, walked my daughter...

Wow. Fascinating to see such a disavowal while this is still on their site: https://corporate.bang-olufsen.com/en/partners/automotive/ford/mustang That said, there’s more ad copy here than technical detail…

True. But I like the way there's a bit of rubber going wider than the wheel right now to guard a bit against curb rash. Also if I'm getting the same size tire all around, I'd like to be able to rotate back to front without remounting/balancing. The more I think about it, the less I like the...

9.5” .5” wider than the fronts

Thanks! Lots of good points. I should clarify that my situation differs a bit in that I also own a 2021 Explorer ST with its own separate set of winter tires on police steelies and *that's* my foul-weather driver. I'm just trying to maximize the number of days I can enjoy the Mustang throughout...

Yeah, I think I'm leaning towards this because as a first-time Mustang owner who's never owned a rear-drive performance-oriented car before, I'm not even sure what the outer edges are supposed to feel like yet. The speed demon part of me definitely wants to explore that and I figure if I keep...

Oh I completely agree narrow tires can be beneficial in winter conditions. I just wouldn’t want to stretch a narrow tire on a wide rim.

Right, there’s better selection of 255 fronts than there is for the 275/40 19 rears. I’m not really interested in putting a narrower tire on the rear rims. (I like having a bit of curb rash buffer in the absence of a 360 camera setup).

Thanks for all the thoughtful replies, everyone. I had thought of the “put winters on stock rims and get wider wheels/tires for summer” option but had kinda ruled it out because winters in the stock PP staggered sizes are slim pickings (not to mention expensive) and wider wheels and tires for...

Toronto gets a lot of snowless days in the winter time, but it’s still quite a bit colder than the recommended minimum temperature for summer tires. Today, for instance, is well below freezing. I want to drive my GT PP on the many winter days when the roads are bare and the salt has been rinsed...

At 7 degrees C (44.6 F) in sunny, dry conditions, the rear of my auto transmission GT PP went sideways when I floored it at 90 km/h (55 mph). Tires were slightly overinflated when I took delivery, and I’ve since adjusted them to spec, but that still shook my confidence in the P Zeros. I’m...
