  1. [yet another] engine noise thread.

    Here’s a control startup video from a normal engine.
  2. [yet another] engine noise thread.

    I had a 2018 F150 with the 5.0 that developed the dreaded tick in the first few thousand miles. I learned that higher octane gas somewhere between 91 and 93 would fix the issue. I didn’t like the higher priced fuel and the noise never felt “normal” to me so I parted ways with my noisy engine at...
  3. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I’m a fan of sleeper cars. I’m starting to lean toward running my bumper to bumper warranty out, then adding the 20HP Ford tune with 4.09 gears, suspension, and tires. Then, once the powertrain warranty is gone, adding a supercharger and upgrading the oil pump gear. The coup de gras would be...
  4. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I really like the Bullitts, but couldn’t get the right price when they were new.
  5. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I picked up my GT with the employee discount plus 0% for 72 months. With A plan, the S650 will probably be more affordable for me than a Mach 1. I’m just trying to figure out what the last ICE car that I’ll have for awhile should be. It will get driven, but I don’t plan on getting rid of it any...
  6. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I love the color of your Mach 1. I’d probably bite too if I got one for under MSRP.
  7. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I just got back from Germany and there weren’t a whole lot of EVs on the road. I saw one Tesla over the course of a week, but no charging stations.
  8. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I personally like my MT-82 D4. I have no idea what it was like in the 2015-2017s for comparison though. If I ever have an engine failure, it’s an opportunity to put in the 7.3 crate motor so there’s a lot of upside to me.
  9. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    I think a lot of this comes from having let a lot of Bullitts and 350s slip through my fingers. If there is a new Boss 429 to come from the S650 and if I could actually get one then I’d be ok without a Mach 1. I had a chance at an orange Mach 1 pre-pandemic and these two Mach 1s are the first...
  10. Hold ‘Em or Fold Em - GT v Mach 1 v ?

    With the end of the second golden era of muscle cars upon us, I’m trying to make sure that when the music stops that I’m in the chair that I want to be in. I’ve got a manual 2020 GT that’s buckets of fun to drive around town. I originally looked at getting a Bullitt, then a 350, then a Mach 1...

    There were better choices…
  12. Mustang GT vs ... (Post whatever you've raced and how it went)

    I’m with you. Today someone tried to turn left into me coming out of a subdivision that I was turning left into from a main road. I had to slide right to keep the other person from hitting me.
  13. Mustang GT vs ... (Post whatever you've raced and how it went)

    Two thoughts came to mind watching this. 1. Wow. That’s pretty impressive. 2. Now I know why my insurance is so high.:crackup:
  14. 2022 Mustang Floor Mat/Liner Suggestion?

    I hate cleaning. I do it because I like clean things, but it just takes away time from something else I’d rather be doing. My experience has been that most people just don’t clean their stuff period. I thought I was odd because I did clean stuff. I had no idea people actually enjoyed it though!
  15. 2022 Mustang Floor Mat/Liner Suggestion?

    I’m a big fan of the factory rubber liners from Ford. They’ve held up well over winter and with all of my kids.
  16. Almost turned into a meme

    I’ve only had something like this happen once. It was also in a passing situation. I think the combination of hard acceleration and sharp steering, as others have mentioned, creates a situation where loss of traction becomes highly likely. I’ve found that less throttle is always the answer to...
  17. Road rage incident

    There’s often road debris there so regardless of how skilled someone thinks they are as a driver it will be game over in a hurry with a punctured tire trying to change lanes at high speed.
  18. EcoBoosts low trade in value

    I have so much fun with my MT82-D4 running around town. If I want gas mileage, I’ll row through some gears. If I want a ticket, then I run it up to 45 in first and go from there. In my version of “around town fun mode” I hardly even use second. There’s so much joy in the tires barely having...
