I’m not a sponsor (yet) and don’t want to get too far off topic, but the VDM has some storage related to calibration and any DTC codes. It’s connected to the high speed bus, so it could log other things, but I don’t think it is. Interesting question though, something to investigate when I get...

Actually, you could put something between the "nanny" telematics module and the rest of the vehicle. You send the telematics module valid signals so it things everything is ok. I have a data logger (shameless plug :wink:) that plugs into the OBD-II port on the HS (OBD-II) and MS (Ford low-speed...

Ford is doing an announcement at Goodwood SpeedWeek tomorrow. Some outlets are speculating it is the EU launch of the Mach 1.

I don't think the price is that bad compared to what you get. The "base" Mach 1 includes a lot of features standard. It's a little high for standard cloth seats, but there's a lot of little things you get with it (12" instrument cluster, active exhaust, etc.) and the few options are not a huge...

Does anyone know if it would be possible to put in a Mach 1 order now, then add the Handling Pack to the order later when it's available?

October 14 was the day Chuck Yeager broke the speed of sound, so they may be waiting for something to do with that. I find it fitting that October 12 (the day that the books should've opened) was also the day Chuck Yeager broke his ribs and almost didn't get to set the record. :cwl: October 12...

I spoke with my dealer twice today, once around 9:30 and again around 4:30. They weren't able to order any 2021 Mustangs at all.

Yeah, over on BlueOval, the person that normally posts the order guides said the guide was scheduled to be published, but it didn't actually get published. The Order Bank should be open, and they can look up things in there. But, there was a note that the web order bank wasn't updated yet. So...

Yeah, I’ve heard that the shipping can be a bit slow. This is the first custom ordered car that I’ll be getting, and I expect it to be 6 to 9 months before it shows up. I’m in no rush, we have been using just 1 car for close to 2 years now, so the wait won’t affect our day to day lives at all...

This is complicating getting the bank pre-approval the dealer wants. I guess I’ll just estimate the car at $65k

I'm saying that based on this clip in the article. Handling package says "coming soon" but the rest of the document doesn't. Since everything has been pushed back due to Covid, I'm wondering if Spring 2021 is now closer to Summer 2021.

It looks like the handling package won’t be available right away either :(

Ah, thank you. I checked out the Vossen site and they only had the 19" HP-5 going up to 10.5".

Damn, I think I like that even better than the Mach 1 HP wheels. Now to find some PP2 size wheels in 19x11.

MPG would drop a lot with E85.

This was posed over on BlueOval this morning: Per Friday's FDNB (Fleet Distribution News Bulletin) below is the updated 2020/2021MY Mustang timetable. 10/02/2020 - 2020MY Final Fleet Order Due Date 10/15/2020 - 2020MY Last Day to Spec Change 12/16/2020 - 2020MY Balance Out Date...

I got all excited earlier when I saw the Mustang and Shelby order guides got updated. Then I saw they were the 2020 order guides :( Does anyone know why Ford would update the order guide on 10/1/2020 when the book closes on 10/2/2020?

Orders on 2020 mustangs close tomorrow, and PP & PP2 are closed already. That may work to your advantage since there is a 10 day gap where they cannot put orders into the system. If your dealer doesn’t have many mustangs on the lot, they may be willing to negotiate for a sale so they have orders...

Yes, the TrailBoss is a lot of fun. It's a great balance for what we wanted (DD that can tow and go on the beach). I was thinking of Pilot Sport 4S, but they don't come in 315/30R19 for the rear tires. They do make 325/30R19, which is a 0.9% increase, but I'll need to check the fitment before...

Thank you for the info. I knew going in that I would be DD the Mach 1, with occasional SCCA solo events on the weekends. For the foreseeable future, DD means 4 miles to the garage at the train station once a week. My plan was to put the Cup 2s on rims for track use, and put something more street...
