  1. Battery tender for dummies - what do I need to know?

    In the upcoming months, due to the weather, I will be driving infrequently and I want to get a battery tender to ensure the battery does not die. Is there a simple system where I connect alligator clips to + and - terminals and plug it into the wall? Would I just unclip and drive away if...
  2. 3.73 gears...starting in second??

    I always hear people say they start in second since first is so short. I tried to start in 2nd a few times and it makes a shudder sound like it didn't like it. This was on flat surface too. Should I be giving it a lot more throttle or is that normal? I did it out of curiosity. I don't...
  3. My 2016 GT PP race red is here

    I always wanted a muscle car. When I was in high school, my best friend and I (neither of whom had money or licenses) used to talk shit about which cars we'd own. But as you get older, you realize sometimes it's just not feasible. I could never afford it. Life goes on. I took a big pay...
  4. Taking delivery of my 16 GT PP in the winter...how screwed am I gonna be?

    Looks like my car is almost ready to be delivered. Unfortunately the weather took a turn for the worse. I live in the Pacific Northwest (Vancouver, BC) with weather very similar to Seattle, WA. It doesn't get THAT cold but it sure does rain a lot in the winter time. I kept hearing we're...
  5. 6-speed manual owners; is your engine braking delayed?

    I still don't have my car so I have to ask. I've heard complaints on another board about the recent Ford Mustangs (his is a 14) that has a significant delay in slowing the car down when you downshift to a lower gear. As in, if you downshift to a lower gear it takes a couple of seconds of...
  6. What do you think of the size of the new Mustang?

    Have my '16 on order so voted with my wallet of course. :) After driving compact cars forever, the new Mustang looks physically huge (though seems to drive smaller). It's amazing that the original Mustang was just 2,500 pounds, which is around 200 pounds less than a 2015 Honda Civic. Even...
  7. How well do you expect the S550 to hold up over time?

    I buy cars and keep them for a while. Think somebody like myself who plans to keep his Mustang for a few years will be disappointed? I know it'll have some squeaks and rattles. But I've heard stories of people who've said "yeah i had a mustang for 5 years, loved that car but when it started...
  8. Guys, should I get the performance package?

    I never thought I could afford a fun car but life can be surprising sometimes when it comes to coming into sudden money. My DD is an 05 Corolla 6-speed manual. No torque, lots of shifting, actually a fun little car (don't laugh ;) ) This will be a fun (not daily driver) car that will be in a...
  9. Is the "engine turned" aluminum dash and vac/oil gauge only PP package?

    I don't intend to order the performance package but I quite liked the layout of the dash with the oil pressure and vacuum gauges, with the scaley looking aluminum dash. When I got into another car, there was just a vent in the gauges' place and the dash trim turned very plain looking aluminum...
  10. Do new coyote 5.0 'Stangs have the same distinct Mustang sound as the fox and 90/00s?

    When I was in high school, nothing sounded better than the deep sound of the exhaust of a 5.0 fox body. You could hear one distinctly from so far away. The sound carried over to the 4.6. Even the slowest of the Mustangs had a wonderful, deep sound that you could tell it was a Mustang with...
  11. New hopeful owner with some questions

    After being pretty sure I'd get a new Camaro 2SS, when I finally sat down at the GM dealership, I realized that I couldn't see anything out of the front window. When I lowered the seat enough to see out the front, I couldn't see out of the sides. Whoever designed that thing needs to...
