Not sure if this is your issue, but…..Remember if you live in a day light savings time area, and have sync use GPS for time, it doesn’t account for DST. UTC which is the GPS standard does not use DST. Have had this issue with Ford sync for years in a number of different vehicles. Fix is to sync...

Got it makes sense.

Most people with the HP cars run PS4 in 305/315 or Conti in 305/325. I’m actually about to pull the trigger on some PS4 for my HP M1. Just curious why you want to go down in width vs the OEM widths? Just wondering if there is some benefit I’m unaware of?

FJG is the signature color for the M1. I don’t know the breakdown of how many were made in each color, but I suspect it was probably number one, which may account for why you saw so many. I don’t think you’d have any issue reselling it. If anything, in a few years people who couldn’t afford...

Yeah, used to have one nearby that was awesome, then the dealership changed hands and they went to sh*t. I bought my Focus RS from Morgan Hill back in the day and the service bays were filled with a combination of Ford Specialty vehicles and heavy commercial trucks. (F350/F450) Based on what was...

Maybe finally found a dealership I can trust to work on it. Have not had positive experiences with dealerships near me, so drove an hour to Morgan Hill Ford, because they have a solid reputation. Dropped the Raptor off for a front timing cover leak. All sorts specialty Fords out front. If they...

I guess I described it incorrectly. Yes it bangs off the rev limiter. But you can very much feel it pull fuel and cut power. “Falling on face” was probably a bad way to describe it. Regardless, the 7500 RPM limiter is there, regardless of what rev number the instrument display lets you set.

Okay, took a while to find it, because it was quick and brief and buried in 2 hours worth of video. LOL First photo is just before I hit the 7500 hard limiter, you can see the tach is red. (7200 RPM) Second photo is right at the point I hit the hard limiter, you can see darker red. I also...

Oh no, I just over-reved it, hit hard limiter. I’ll see if I can find the video for the exact RPM.

I’ll see if I can find the video, but I hit the hard limiter (accidentally) a couple times on track. Car very clearly pulled fuel, as you could feel it fall flat on its face. I’m not sure of the exact RPM. Usually manufacturers set up the car to shift just before redline, so when you do get the...

I just looked at some video from my 22 M1, redline starts at 7200 RPM, also a manual. Guessing it’s to give time to shift to avoid hitting the rev limiter, which I can confirm comes fast at that RPM as I have banged against it once or twice. The last 300 RPM is kind of a moot point, as peak HP...

I get it. White was my first choice and I got very lucky. Dude put down a 5k deposit then was transferred by his company out of the country. He lost the 5k down, and it was on the dealership floor. They were still trying to gouge people for 5k over MSRP. I was lucky enough to get it for MSRP...

The RS is such a good car, miss mine everyday. I honestly liked it more than I like my M1. (Agree with you they are two different cars.) You could absolutely tell the difference of a car assembled in a German factory vs an American one.

2nd the vote for Flitz or Never Dull, both are excellent products. If it’s really stubborn surface rust a very wet sos pad will get rig of it too. If not, warranty claim.

Oh, his is red with hallow letters, yeah the one I linked is off.

I’m right there with you man. I’m younger than you but; 3 herniated discs, stenosis, bone spur, arthritis, and a cyst. All in the lower 3 vertebrae. I’m sort of in “remission” from pain right now, due to a really well placed cortisone shot and some hardcore physical therapy. But fact is, it...

Here you go…..it was a bit of a where’s Waldo to figure out…year and trim of your car next time will make it a bit easier for the folks around here to help you find it. Hope this is what you’re looking for and helps. https://ford.oempartsonline.com/oem-parts/ford-stripe-tape-fr3z6320000aa

The on-line availability works intermittently. I was able to get it to work so I could order my plate. It was turned off for a long while during and after Covid. It’s back on now, but there are periods where it just doesn’t seem to work well.

Fishing for a living, can’t beat that. 👍

They still offer the black/yellow. We actually have quite a few options now. Not as many as Nevada which has seemingly endless options. Depending on the options you chose, the money either goes to the state, or some special interest group. (Environmental groups, kids causes, etc.) Your Tahoe...
