Unfortunately, with the history of tune and being out of warranty, I would suspect that any chance of Ford paying a single cent is out the window. I owned several VW's before my GT and with the super expensive DSG, I heard a lot of stories of VW making offers to cover parts and have customers...

It's been about 100 outside temp here and I see 205 occasionally. I have read that the bypass thermostat does not even open until 190. As far as heat on the center console, I've never noticed but I've never looked. I'm curios now.

One thing to consider is how important the premium features are. If you don't enjoy getting in the car everyday because it doesn't have those features, then taking a hit on value may be worth the trade for happiness. On the other side though, you could look at it and say you are lucky to...

That is almost identical to what I did except mine had 18k miles on it. I paid 29 out the door in March for my 2015 premium. Dealer kbb was 32k at the time. With 23k miles, kbb trade in is now 27k.

Yep, I always use the parking brake in an effort to keep stress off the transmission, although I'm not really sure if it actually does. If nothing else, it helps prevent situations like this.

Probably 90% of my driving is highway and my GT reads 24 mpg. It's actually closer to 23 when calculated. When I test drove an EB for the same route, I got 27 mpg on the screen. Since most of my driving is highway, the premium trim luxuries are super nice to have (Siri eyes free in my case or...

Just checked, my 2015 GT premium does in fact have boost (up to 20 psig) and vacuum on the gauge. Guess it's a sign from Ford I should go forced induction...

I wonder if the GT vacuum gauge could be turned to a boost gauge using as built data from an ecoboost. I would suspect so.

I'm glad to know someone else has a car buying problem: I'm 25 and have had 10 cars in the 9 years I've been able to drive. This is my 2nd mustang and hopefully I'll keep this car longer than the year max I've kept a car so far.

I'm not sure that is entirely accurate. I think Ford was more trying to make an effort to rejuvenate manual transmission sales since the 6r80 outsells the mt82 by a lot (81% of 2015's are auto, and likely increasing) and, from my understanding, there was a lot of complaints on the 2011-2014 mt82...

That makes since for something like a manual where you actually have to do physical things, but if I am initiating the shift with the paddle then shouldn't the transmission have at least the same shift time?

From my understanding, sport plus and track modes firm up shifts (not sure where I saw that, maybe in the owners manual?). In theory, this should also mean faster shifts and quicker acceleration times. I'm curious to know if paddle shifting in sport + results in quicker times.

Having a good degree results in a high paying job right out of college. Between that and being single, I have disposable income that I choose to use on a car.

The climate control can be manually controlled on the premium packages, FYI.

Ahh, I see. The air wasnt cold coming out so I didn't figure the compressor was running but I thought it was strange having the a/c light on.

I have the exact opposite issue: when it's below 50 outside the ac doesn't turn off even when I set the temperature above 80. I've only had the car a couple of months and it's now in the 80s where I'm at so not an issue anymore but I'd like to know also if this is normal behavior. It hasn't been...

Ha, I just turned 25 so that must make me old at a quarter century

25 here

I don't even have the option of 93 in Kansas, so I alternate between 87 and 91.

I've owned exactly 1 new car (not my current) and I followed the owners manual. I would think 500km would be ok but I think the owners manual says 1000 miles.
