I got the Diono forward facing for my little girl when she was about 1.5. She LOVES the SHELBY. Screams whenever I give it gas. But having a large rear facing is not conducive and/or safe in our cars until they are old enough to move up. And a huge PITA too.

OP I was in the same boat as you before my daughter was born 2 years ago. I sold the 350 and bought a FK8 Civic Type R. Manual, quick, and practical as hell with the hatchback. Is it as fast? No. Does it sound good? No. But its still fun and as a car guy I wanted manual, 4 doors, large enough...

Sold my 1stGT350 when we had our child on the way. Bought another 2 years later. There’s always more out there and you can always buy another one.

I found mine on Facebook, specifically the "Shelby GT350" group. I made a post asking if anyone was selling an Avalanche Grey. Figure out what color and spec you want, make a post. The individual who replied didn't have his listed but we made a deal. For me it had to be AG and Recaros. Can...

Bought my 2017 5 owners, 30k miles, it's great. Mind you, FACTOR in some cash for "cleaning" it up if you are anal like me. I replaced front splitter, steering wheel, all the fluids etc etc to get it to my standard. Cars like these will have a lot of owners, typical given age.

I just had my right rear bearing replacing. Was squeaking over bumps and could hear a roar at 55 MPH. Ford replaced the wrong one and thenoise persisted so took it to a performance shop. They use a device to listen to each one and said it was obvious. Replaced and noise gone.

Drive the car in whatever mode you like the best. Track mode has traction control turned off, be aware. Sport makes the throttle response much more responsive which is good for blip downshifting, not so good on Track when you need a more linear throttle input. Like Galaxy said, no difference...

Looks fun! You and your son have great taste! Would love to see video when it’s ready.

Super helpful Skinny, much appreciated :-). Let us know how it goes this week. I'm pumped.

How are the run groups split up? Are the first groups quite spicy?

Hey y'all, I just signed up for the Shelby Mountain Run 2026. Never done it before. Seems cool. July 15th - 19th. Located in Kingsport, TN. Looks like about 100 typically attend, mostly 350s. Consists of meetups, lunch, and daily drives that are separated by run group based on your comfort...

Made it 13 minutes into that video, but knew about 1 minute in that I would never attempt this. Is there anything wrong with waiting for it to fail (even though it whines now)?

What do you recommend?

Will Ford touch it until it breaks? Been to dealers too many times that won’t do any work until so.

Mine is loud AF when it is on and you increase RPMs. Works, but I imagine it is on its way out? I hardly ever use it, only when wife is in the car.
