New 2026 GT

[spacemarine83]

Hey all,

My wife just got me a 2026 GT for our 20th anniversary. I have 179 miles on if and took delivery from Lebanon Ford on Saturday. Base model with A10. Previously owned a 17 and it looks like these cars are pretty close parts wise. Any advice for a guy who has never owned an a10 grn 4 coyote car? I am,ears for suggestions on mods, etc.

Above all, keep your tire dealer happy.... You'll need him!

Dang, that's a good idea. I'm going to tell my wife that the new Mustang that I will be ordering is her 21st-anniversary present. But since it will come with a manual transmission and she doesn't really care to shift, shucks, I'll drive it for her.

She's definitely a keeper.
Enjoy .

Take the 32000 ford points you get and put it toward the ford racing X pipe (resonator delete) thats normally $330 but those points get you to about half off. Ford service departments will install it for you for 1 hour labor, so for about $350 you get a warranty covered exhaust upgrade installed that makes the s650 sound pretty sick.

Thanks! She has always supported my passion for Mustangs. We also have 66 GT A code coupe as well.

Congrats. We must not live to far apart Im up in Brookville. I almost bought from Lebanon but wasn't ready to pull the trigger when I test drove a DH there. DJ was great and had a great experience there. Get some tint done. Mine is in the shop now.

Hmm, what are these 32,000 points you speak of? I have zero points in my Ford account, despite buying my '26 a month ago...

You get 31000 for ever Ford you buy. I had 62000 from the last two. You can call the dealer and ask. They usually require you set up the my ford app and add your car before they can add them to your account.

Edit: Sorry, 31000 points.

My 20th wedding anniversary is coming up later this year. I showed your post to my wife and live in hope

Congratulations on your anniversary and the car. Nice colour

Upgrade the subwoofer. Good to go.

My first and only upgrade so far has been carpeted floor mats. I did not like the all-weather mats it came with. Also, check out this thread for trunk storage! (2) Storage Hacks I Find Invaluable | Mustang7G - 2024+ S650 Mustang Forum (Dark Horse, GT, EcoBoost, GT500, GT350, Mach 1)
