If the police are strict for noise you better reconsider the Magnaflow Competition. I have it and it is badass, but i had to do some trunk sound deadening to tone down drone. Luckily I live in a rural area and have a garage. If I lived in an apartment complex, neighbors would be on my...
A guy at work had the same thing happen. Is yours a performance pack?
He was on a slight incline at home and was messing around in the car with it running in neutral and handbrake on. He shut the car down for the night and forgot to put it in gear. Several hours later his car coasted into...

Anyone with springs can plan on losing 1.0-1.25" of clearance. Upon installing my Steeda Progressives, my 17.5* Rhino ramps no longer cleared the front splitter. I had to buy the 56" long Race Ramps, which are around 10.5*, IIRC.
Anyone else see the resemblance between our splitter...
At your auto parts store there is probably a rack at the check-out. For $1 or so buy a little squeeze pack of the battery "jelly." It is a red gel you coat your terminals with after you clean them. Works great.
I didn't see mention of two other options:
1. spare tire
2. Rear park assist ($295) [includes blind spot and cross traffic] I find this very helpful as the side mirrors are small and the camera only sees so far to the side. This is most useful in the parking lot.
26 psi sounds low for tire pressure. What does your sticker on the drivers door call for? Mine with the 19" from the 50th AP call for 32 psi. You may not be getting full contact patch contact at 26 psi. Pump them up and see if anything changes. Might be the cheapest fix you ever did (if it...
+1 on route 311. Personally done that road. Rt 20 in WV was also a wonderful road. Lots of sweepers that you could roll through quickly.
I'll add the following web site in as a resource too.

The rhino ramps I have say they are 17.5 degree. They were fine until I added lowering springs. I would think you want to stay at or below 12 degrees when you are rolling along.
Normal occurrence on my '15 GT. I've gotten used to it. I've chalked it up to extra thin aluminum hood with minimal bracing.
On a warm day, I may try checking out the rubber stoppers. A little unnerving, as I had a hood fly up on the '66 Mustang I had as a teenager due to a mis-adjusted...
On my previously stock GT non-PP i had a odd sensation while cornering that could best be described as a "rubber-band" feeling. I believe it was compliance of the subframe bushings. It was unnerving. Felt like the start of the tires breaking loose - but it wasn't.
I installed the Steeda rear...
All of those roads are nice. Skyline drive is 35 mph while the BR Parkway tends to be 45 mph. The Tennessee counterpart to the Dragon is called "The Snake" and it is just as twisty. It runs through Shady Valley, TN.
I ride two motorcycle trips each year, all in the SE, and usually 3 day...
For the car seat buy a heavy rubber protective mat such as this:

Limit the snacks and drinks in the car. The Weather Techs are great. If you don't want...
303 Aerospace fan here. Non-greasy, water soluble, and UV inhibitors. For quick touch ups I use a small California Duster to get rid of the dust and crumbs.
I can confirm that Ford's factory sub frame mis-alignment was the culprit for my IRS brace installation woes. I ordered the IRS braces for mine shortly after purchase. The braces were "stubborn" to get torqued down.
Fast forward to last weekend ... I treated myself to a Steeda handling kit...
