  1. Poor Sirius reception?

    My wife had her 2106 in 3 times and they did absolutely nothing. Each time they told me that Ford engineering was aware of the problem and was working on it. I asked them to replace the antenna, and they said that Ford would not approve any fixes until they determined root cause. From my...
  2. LIGHTNING BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

    Like the DIB better. Looked at both in person. My wife had a 2016 DIB that was totaled and was disappointed that she couldn't order a 2017 DIB. She went with white and had Blue full body stripes put on it. The attached pic has the Lighting Blue in the foreground with the DIB a couple cars away...
  3. Flaming Hot ecoboost - not in a good way

    The car did stay running, my wife had to shut it off. She was doing 45 mph when she went through the intersection. The car that turned in front of her was a 2014 Chevy Cruze. They had three dogs in the car too. The dogs and the 2 people in the car were uninjured. I have 2 dogs and I am super...
  4. Flaming Hot ecoboost - not in a good way

    Yes. That's what saved her.
  5. Flaming Hot ecoboost - not in a good way

    My wife totaled her 2016 Ecoboost the other day. Some idiot made a left in front of her while going through an intersection. Car started smoking immediately and was engulfed in flames within 5 minutes. She's OK because she got out right away. I was surprised how fast this thing burned. The car...
  6. Poor Sirius reception?

    As an ex-transmission guy, have you still got any connections at Ford. Some of us GT350 owners are experiencing hot tranny's, in case you haven't heard. LOL :frusty: I was an Engineer on the 6R auto trans. The GT350 gets a manual from Tremec. Ford buys these, they don't manufacture in...
  7. Poor Sirius reception?

    Thanks for the info, but this is a brand new car with Sync 3. I don't want to do any modifications to the radio that would void my warranty.
  8. Poor Sirius reception?

    Took my wife's 2016 Ecoboost premium in today for the radio cutting in and out all the time. This is the second time I brought it in since we bought it in March. The dealer did nothing again only told me Ford engineering is working on it (BS). This was first documented in March of this year and...
  9. Poor Sirius reception?

    Took my wife's 2016 Mustang in yesterday for the same issue. All the dealer did was inspect the connections. I have 4 cars; 2 Chevys with XM and 2 Fords with Sirius. The XM radios work perfectly. My Harley F150 loses signals occasionally but my wife's new Mustang loses it all the time. And we...
  10. GT350 GAS GUZZLER TAX

    The 2015 650HP Z06 Vette has a GG Tax on the 8-spd auto, but not on the 7-spd manual
  11. 2016 GT350/GT350R Mustang Pricing! Starts at $47,870

    Yes, the dealer can put one in, but it won't be cheap. I was about to buy a 2014 with a V6 and the dealer told me the cost would be $600-800 for a Sirius radio. It's not a matter of just activating a Sirius account, because there is no Sirius tuner factory installed. So you need everything...
  12. 2016 Mustang Press Release - New Packages, Options & Features

    FYI, the current Ford 6-spd auto is a ZF HP26 clone. Ford purchased the licencing rights to produce the 6R. They did this to get a 6-speed to market quicker. The 2006 Navigator actually had the ZF trans in it, followed in 2007 with the 6R in the Expedition, then the F150 & Mustang. The new...
  13. 2016 Mustang Press Release - New Packages, Options & Features

    They should eliminate all turn signals completely. No one uses them anymore anyway! Would have been nice to have seen this effort put towards something useful like an HUD.
  14. 2016 Mustang Press Release - New Packages, Options & Features

    I was hoping to see the 10-speed auto for 2016, but it looks like another year wait. The 6-spd auto has now been around 10 years. It will be interesting to see if the new Camaro will get the 8-spd auto the Corvette has. As a retired Ford Engineer that worked on the 6R program, I'm disappointed...
  15. Sirius Satellite Radio install post delivery

    You are an idiot! You don't seem to understand English. Once again the thread was about Sirius radio, not your hatred for Camaros. My point is that if you want Sirius radio on a 2015 Mustang, you must buy a ecoboost premium model or higher to get it. Go back to school and get your GED. I don't...
  16. Sirius Satellite Radio install post delivery

    Sorry I hurt your feelings about buying a Camaro over a Mustang. For your information, I was looking at 2014 models at the time, and the Camaro was the better buy as well as the better driver, IRS, HP, radio, etc. However, the original topic was Sirius radio, or lack of in a new Mustang, which I...
  17. Sirius Satellite Radio install post delivery

    A Fusion SE comes standard with Sirius, a Fusion S does not. A base v6 Mustang does not come standard with Sirius nor is it available as an option. You have to get an Eco boost Premium to get Sirius in a Mustang. As far as Satellite capable as listed on Ford's ordering guides, that is a...
  18. Sirius Satellite Radio install post delivery

    I don't want a rental car, but I do want a V6 with some popular options. Remember Ford used to offer a V6 premium package. You can't get a premium V6 now. I don't want a 4cyl or V8. You're just as out of touch with the consumer as Ford is. I got a piece of crap subcompact rental car last month...
  19. Sirius Satellite Radio install post delivery

    This is why I bought a 2014 base Camaro over the Mustang. I refuse to pay a outrageous amount for a radio that should be standard in all vehicles. I got quotes anywhere from $500-$800 to install all the satellite components. For that kind of money, I could buy a high-end aftermarket radio. The...
