I can correct the paint myself, I'm an auto detailer. My concern is that if I pop those bubbles that there will be raw metal or primer or something under them, and thats going to require a repaint. I wont settle for touch up on a factory issue on a brand new car. Of course if I try to repair...

Hi guys, I took delivery of my '15 EcoBoost A/T in Magnetic Metallic on Friday, right off the truck. I did a full initial detail yesterday and found paint bubbling up on the bottom edge of the door. It doesn't look like theres any exposed panel at the moment, so I might wait to bring it to...

What are some things I should look out for/immediately do once taking delivery of the car? I'm an automotive detailer, so definitely going to give it a full detail and paint sealant as soon as possible. Also read about the stock tire pressure potentially being too high so I'll be checking...

:shrug: Oh well.. I drive around my parking garage without a belt on after having to get my wallet out, and the 30 seconds it takes me to find a spot the belt warning never goes on, and if it did I don't think it would annoy me *that* much. That is an excellent point!

Why would you want to remove the seatbelt chime? Anyone who drives without their seatbelt is just a driving darwin award.

I just cannot sit here and be still at the moment, I am incredibly elated to hear that the car I've been waiting for is "at the ramp" which apparently means its at the rail-yard where cars are offloaded from the train. I've been tracking this car for several weeks, and been through some rough...

Make sure your foot is down on the break all the way when your shifting, if its not fully on the break it might feel like a slight jerk as it goes into gear without any resistance.

Your opinions I suppose, of which you are entitled to. But I don't give my business to a place that treats me like shit and wont do exactly what I want to do. And if you guys choose to do that, well thats your prerogative.

Okay, your points are fair. I don't have the time to rebuttle, but in my opinion, a dealer only exists as a medium between Ford the company and me. If I didn't have to deal with a dealer to buy a car, and could buy direct from Ford, I would. But since I don't have that option, and my only...

Yes. One dealer I bought a car from before and we were communicating only via phone for that deal and for this one. The communication broke down almost immediately with this dealer. The second dealer I went in person to after getting fed up with the first dealer, and the communication just...

Yeah, really frustrating.

I spoke to a manager this morning and outlined my experience in full. He apologized and asked if there was anything he could do. After double checking the value of my trade in we decided to part ways and my deposit should be returned in full. Might hop off the Mustang buying train for a while...

Welcome to Ford Service™ where we will find any excuse in the book to void your warranty even if it means losing a customer for life. We already got your $30K so who really cares anymore?

We've been in contact :) I'm the annoying guy via email with 50 million questions. I just don't want to run my car on the street at 100MPH to give you the proper data logs so I was looking at dynos to do the runs. The $175/hr was literally just to use the dyno, no tuning involved.

I am having the worst of luck trying to actually buy a new Mustang. The first two dealers I called (the two nearest to me) refused to return my calls, and then took forever to check if they could get Mustangs as a dealer trade, and all 4 of the vehicles I was interested in got sold while they...

Guess I gotta get my fat arse down to Texas!!

Got some back roads that aren't trolled by cops where you can pull really high speeds?

Hi folks, I was just quoted $175/hr with a minimum of 2 hours for some dyno time at a local tuning shop. Just time to do runs on a dyno, no tuning. Is this a normal rate for this service? I just need to do some data logging but I don't care to run my car up to 100mph on the street...

I wont have the premium drive modes, does this matter?

Is S mode the one where you use the paddle shifters? Is the rev match aggressive like a race car or only a small blip (example, 3K rpm downshift from 3rd to 2nd is more than a small blip)? I haven't got my car in hand but I am most excited for this feature in the auto, makes tracking a ton...
