5 Reasons Why The Base Mustang GT Is Better Than The Darkhorse!

[Cucurú]

This takes me back some. I've been on car/bike forums for years and they always have a periodic blow up, and I was was as bad as anyone else.
Then I got onto facebook to keep in touch with people while overseas, and got into the whole argueing with strangers nonsense.
Then, one day I realised what a waste of energy and batteries in my blood pressure monitor.
So I more or less stopped.
I also realised that, on Facebook, it's better to throw the grenade and duck. Don't reply to them, they hate that.

You can't win on FB, forget breaking even.

Also shout out to you if your Kiwi I have a lot of good friends currently in Auckland.

Thanks. Yep, Italian/Kiwi born in Wellington NZ. But I lived most of my life in Auckland, we're a bit south of there now, an east coast city called Tauranga.
Auckland's nice to visit, but their traffic drives me mad now.

Nice yeah most of my Kiwi friends are moving to Australia now because of traffic and the price of housing as well. How's the weather in Tauranga? Were you guys affected by all the storms there recently ?

I mean if you actually wanted to tell people the 5 reasons, then why not just type it out? just be realistic about it and say you're just posting to get views and support. And leave out the comment about "but for those of you that want to be a part of a positive movement to keep companies like Ford" LOL, you clearly feel some type of way about people who said it on your last post about the 0-60 times. You're just trying to use your car as content rather than actually enjoying the car and engaging in actual discussion with people.

This is exactly the same feedback he got from the windshield thread. If he would engage and participate in any other discussion threads, I might believe he just cares about furthering the brand as he says. But sadly he only posts when he has a new click bait video to promote, and then stirs the pot by choosing to gaslight established memebers as these horrible unhappy people if they have any disagreement or negative feedback toward him. It's not surprising the majority of the forum isn't amused.

I make videos, yes I want people to watch it and support my content, that's the whole purpose of making content, IF YOU'RE NOT INTERESTED THEN DON'T WATCH AND SHUT THE EFF UP! LMAO Whats wrong with people asking people to watch and support their content? When did that become a bad thing? I could write everything out here which would be time consuming and wouldn't benefit me in anyway, so basically what you're saying is that you want me to waste my time and not benefit myself in anyway, or I could make a video that can benefit anyone that watches it, it can be entertaining and informative and I can also make a few pennies in the process. Like everyone in the Toyota forum's are cool and understand this no problem I'm trying to understand why it's such a big deal here? Please explain.

Why don't you just shut the eff up and stop posting, or at least stop replying to the people who bring up valid points against the way you attempt to "communicate" and "foster discussion"

You didn't make a video that can benefit anyone who watches it. You made a video for a very specific group of people.

If everyone in the Toyota forums is cool with it, why don't you go back amongst like minded individuals, you seem to do well there as you're incapable of taking honest feedback.

Gonna waste some time and watch your gabrage

Reason #1: By your logic a Camry is better than a 911 turbo because the out the door price is lower. The s550 is better than your s650 because the out the door price is lower.

Reason The tires: thats the dark horse handling pack tire size. 275/40/19's aren't that expensive. Mines got an LSD so it'll grip and go better.

Reason #3 MY FEELS SAY THE CAR I BOUGHT LOOKS BETTER. dude the body panels are the same. I've even got the same hood as you.

Reason #5: I BELIEB MY BASE CAR IS FASTER!! Dark horse has diff cams, diff transmission gearing on the A10, limited slip diff from factory, oh god nobody but you cares about the shoutouts. lmao, 4.8 vs 4.3. Yes, half a second is a lot of time. that's 10% faster. Also post dragy slips.

I got my DH because it came with stronger rods for when I threw boost at it, more horsepower, and had magneride and B&O as standard.

I can't believe I wasted 6 mins on your garbage.

Hi Ryan it's good hearing from you again, I look forward to reading one positive comment from you sometime in the future instead of you being immediately drawn to other negatives types as yourself, I guess it's true that misery loves company. It's obvious to me that you can't help yourself at this point, and I know that it wouldn't matter if I did everything perfectly, and made the most amazing video of all time, you would still search for something negative to point out because that is your nature, I genuinely feel sorry for you brother and I hope you find some form of happiness in this lifetime.

Great point and nah it's more fun to interact with you, I find you angry types very amusing, as I've stated before I could never see myself lashing out at complete strangers on the internet just because they posted a video that I didn't agree with or because I don't like how they introduced their video, so I prefer to respond to people like yourself because I want to get to the nucleus of your hate, and anger, so please explain what is it about me or my content that angers you so much that you have to take precious time out of your life to stop and write your comment? The reality is that I posted a video and my points are valid, if you disagree you can point out which of my points are not valid and we can have that discussion, but no this is something deeper, more primal I believe and I'd like to understand where your hate and anger comes from, you are proving to be a great case study.

Congrats on watching the video, you sir have proved me wrong and have therefore won this argument, thanks for your time and honesty.

I'd love to respond to your argument without having to watch 18 minutes of rambling trash. I edited my comment to humour you, so now you can see my rebuttal.

Why am I filled with such hate? Because I suffer from various mental health issues and don't qualify for assisted suicide until 2027. Please feel free to sign my petition encouraging the government to relieve everyone else of the burden of interacting with me at a sooner date.

I love folks who double down on being as difficult as possible, yet don't take pause and reflect on themselves.

I know I'm awful and how my behaviours affect others, Do you? Seems you almost do and that you enjoy it. Guess we're two sides of the same coin.

If what you say is true then you have my deepest and most sincere sympathy, I responded to your earlier message and gave you credit for watching the video, I know I have some deep character faults to work on myself, which is an ungoing process, my beef isn't with people that criticize me, but with people that critique based on assumption without even trying to see who I really am, I have a problem with that because those are the people currently ruining our planet, it's the people that automatically hate because people are different from them. If everyone looked at my content and gave me their honest feedback on what I can do better I would happily consider all feedback, but the majority of the people complaining never even watch the content, they just assume. For instance in this video there are some Darkhorse owners that agree with me wholeheartedly and some that don't and I'm okay with that. Also addressing your earlier comment, the 4.3 was from an A10 Darkhorse in perfect conditions, and my 4.8 was with a manual gearbox on a dusty road in 93 degree weather, and it was timed with a Racebox and posted as a video as well, so that means had I had the A10 base Mustang it most likely would have equaled that Darkhorse time.

If you don’t have nothing nice to say, don’t say nothing at all, I enjoyed your video. I can’t believe some people that waste their time and energy in a long winded negative reply, I guess it makes them feel better, so buy the base model and throw a supercharger on it now you got a sleeper.

 

[Kevi]

It just comes off as envy.

This video is retarded. Of course wider rims and bigger tires are more expensive. Of course thicker sway bars and bigger brakes are more expensive. Of course better aero bits are more expensive. Of course the mass of all that better hardware is going to weigh a little more.

The dark horse will destroy a base GT in performance because of all that added grip and down force. They aren't even in the same conversation on a track.

The first mod you should do to a GT is wider rims and bigger rubber. It will help both 1/4 mile and lap times. The car is way under tired unless you got the performance pack.

If someone gave you the option of a choice between a free ecoboost, GT, or dark horse 100 out of 100 people are taking the dark horse.

Now is a dark horse worth 40k over an ecoboost or 20k over a base GT? It must be because they're selling. It's just a very limited supply of people who can afford a 70k mustang and would choose one over the competition.

The base GT is a steal $/hp, that's obvious. The Dark Horse is in more crowded performance territory where someone is going to really have to love the mustang body style to purchase it.

To me the argument isn't even dark horse vs GT since they aren't really in the same ball park. It's dark horse vs C8 or BMW or Cayman.

To me that's where the dark horse falls down. If I was spending 70k on a car it wouldn't be a Ford. But for 40k no one else can compete.

I must have missed the ‘offensive’ sales pitch / promo (act now) in the video. Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.
