I read a while back, the Ford quietly changed from a 289 to a 302, during the later part of the Mustang's 1967 model year, even though they kept the "289" badges on the fenders. My first car was a used 1967 Mustang. Its long gone, but I am now left wondering if I had a 289 or a 302 under the...

I would be very worried. :crying: My worry would be that if Ford could have simply fixed the vehicle, they would have. You are basically buying a vehicle that might not have been fixed, and may never be fixed, because the true cause of the problem was never found. Again, if Ford found...

Its been a while for me. The key is it has to have been a "sold" order to a specific customer (not for general stock), and order accepted, before the price increase. The vehicle will come in, stickered and invoiced at the higher price. The dealer needs to submit a form (now online?)...

Possibly this is regional, but around here, all the dealer body shops are usually business-wise independent from the dealer itself. Yea, they might have the same root business name, and yea, they might be conveniently located right next door, but legally they are miles apart. If yours is...

Mustn't ... ang. :facepalm:

When I bring my Mustang in for any work, I always bring along a box of Dunkin donuts. Keeping the guy who is working directly on my Mustang happy, is always good to do.

My employer had to shut down our semiconductor line, years ago. The problem is that even if you were able to run at 100% capacity, 24/7, that only gets you to the break-even point. The root problem is that equipment goes obsolete very quickly, and you need to run the heck out of it, before...

What about police? Do police cars have too much power? Is it that the police simply don't have the right training or experience to handle the car they are given? A few years ago, there were two police officers who thought they were professional stunt drivers, driving their cars on a...

Mine showed up at the dealer, on the Monday of its scheduled build week. That Monday was also the scheduled "Job 2" date, for two of my options. My salesman called and left me a voice msg that Monday. I wasn't in any rush to call him back since I was just assuming he was calling to tell...

I tend to agree. A vehicle, especially an "aerodynamic" sports car with a front plate, is one of those point and laugh things. :facepalm: Thankfully, we don't have front plates here in PA. :clap:

Ditto. Exactly what tell them. I even have it written into the sales agreement.

I thought the Mach 1 was excluded from the X-plan? At least it was when I checked a week ago.

I would have to cut a giant square hold in the hood, for the shaker installation, anyway. :giggle:

I live up north, and my Mustang has never seen snow. 🌨 There were groups rescuing sea turtles in Texas. Weren't there groups rescuing Mustangs too? :crackup:

Other than it says it is for the 2018-19 models, with only a plan to expand it to the 2015-17 models. Is there word it fits the 2021 Mach 1? And does it blend into the hood and black out "paint", without looking like something out of the JC Whitney discount bin?

Yea, it can be embarrassing that you need to hide the woodie that new Mustang just gave you. :giggle:

Adaptive is more than that. Especially when one adds in lane keeping/centering, plus the other features of Co-Pilot 360. Back to my original question, worded a bit differently, why have all this new automation stuff, and a manual transmission? Aren't they contradictory?

I see on the website, one can order Adaptive Cruise Control, on a Mustang with a manual transmission. How, exactly, does that work? How does the ACC handle downshifting and upshifting, as your speed varies between 0mph and 100mph ? Is some ways I agree with you. Though, I think of all...

From what I read, its the antennas being in different locations on the coupe vs. the convertible that causes the problems. If the PP Spoiler would fit OK on a convertible, the factory would not be deleting (omitting) it in the first place. However, the pedestal spoiler used on the CS...

With a Mach 1+appearance pkg, orange nail polish might be a good choice. :giggle:
