Good to know. I haven’t driven the car yet post oil change. I’ll check the oil level.

Thank you sir! The plate idea is BRILLIANT! I typically do that too, but with trying to capture everything on video, I forgot it. I suspect it makes no difference though... I didn’t see any disruption in flow. The oil came out in a solid stream. If there was a vacuum, it would have been...

Good tips! Thanks!

Interesting info. I’m not sure how important the order of the steps are. If it was important, you’d think it would be listed that way across all the literature for the car. I suspect it makes no difference as all of the oil is draining out regardless and the angle of the filter, plus the filter...

Are you coming to that conclusion based on this: If so, I believe that is an incorrect assessment. Removing the drain plug is not listed because it is obvious you do that during an oil change. I will stick with the tradition steps unless someone has info that states otherwise: 1. Remove...

In this video, I show how to change the oil on the 2020 GT500, how to deal with the cartridge style oil filter, how to reset the oil life counter as well as a bonus of making my low CFTP compatible with my 2-post lift!

The only way I could see this being an “issue” is if a decent amount of water is trapped and then allowed to freeze. It would seriously suck ending up with a cracked carbon fiber wing.

Awesome! Glad to help!

I leave mine in the track setting as well, but my car doesn’t get driven in the rain and the only water hose action it sees are on the wheels and grille. I’m not sure how water could get in there, but even in the high setting, I would expect it to work it’s way out during normal driving...

I completely understand about techs screwing stuff up. I refuse to have any of my Mustangs worked on without me there “supervising.” If your dealer will allow you to install the items and then inspect the work as well as sign it off in the computer as having the recall done, then I see no...

I recommend not doing this yourself. This is a safety item that needs to be documented in the Ford computers. It’s a fairly straight forward process that most of us could do ourselves easily, but this needs to be done by Ford. There is liability involved. I did it yesterday and documented the...

Thanks Tob!

In this video, my 2020 GT500 CFTP goes in for the brake pedal recall. I film the process to show what is involved. I then take my service advisor out for a "test" spirited run! This recall covers "2-pedal" Mustangs with a build date of Feb 28th 2019 to Aug 13th 2020. See recall info in video...

Thanks guys! I appreciate the positive feedback. We both had a good time out “playing” to see how the two cars in stock form stacked up to each other. Both are great cars!

Heck yes! If you ever head towards DFW, holler at me.

In this video, we spend the afternoon racing a stock 2020 GT500 CFTP against a stock 2013 GT500... we do many races from various speeds as well as from a dig! Win some... lose some... we had a blast! I then let the 2013 owner take my CFTP out for some spirited fun! You'll see what worked well...

Thanks guys... appreciate the feedback. That’s good added info Tob. We were told the wheels were in limited supply early on. It’s good to know Carbon Revolution increased capacity. It will be interesting to see what if any restrictions are placed on the CFHP option.

In this video, I discuss the 2020 Shelby GT500 "Golden Ticket" & "Double Golden Ticket." I dispel myths and set the record straight. There is quite a bit of inaccurate info on the web regarding these terms.

If you hit the M button, the tranny will not up shift. Your engine rev limiter kicks in, which happened to me chatting on the phone. I just got back from driving mine. I used both manual (M) and auto (D) modes out playing, but I now have a rule that if I am in M and have anything distracting...

It boils down to having too many options and losing track what modes you are in, especially during a distraction event like a phone call. With a manual transmission car, I would never forget to shift. With the DCT, you can forget you have locked the tranny into M very easily. The manual doesn’t...
