The green one was actually a steal, which is pretty atypical for eBay as we all know. That was a golden ticket carāCFTP and painted stripes. Plus it already had ceramic and PPF. If I could fit my fat arse in the Recaros, I would have bid on it myself.
Itās not just Mustangs. The quality problem exists throughout the Ford product line. The fit and finish on my 81k Super Duty is atrocious. It looks like a blind monkey did the taping where the color transitions from white to brown on my King Ranch. Thereās a large divot in the paint on the roof...
I had the same thing happen when I bought the wife her Raptor last year. It was the middle of the pandemic when cars were just sitting in inventory. We got a new leftover 19 for 10k under MSRP. Local dealer where we test drove a Raptor laughed at us when I attempted to negotiate. Sometimes you...
Doubt youāre ever gonna do better than MSRP on a gt500. Iāve talked to a couple guys at car shows who said they paid MSRP and plenty guys on here said they've gotten MSRP deals. Most have paid at least some ADM. If you can find a dealer willing to sell at MSRP, Iād jump on it before somebody...
Yeah, I noticed that the title was clear too. Was thinking the same as you on a possible washed title. The carfax, autocheck, etc donāt catch everything. His asking price was way low with the mileage too. They have to know something is not right with this car.
Most wonāt even bother responding when you ask if theyāll sell for MSRP. Donāt believe the ads on auto trader, cars.com, etc. Iām done wasting time contacting dealers with gt500s in stock. Nobody will sell without a large adm. Iām on a few lists to order a 22 at MSRP. Hopefully a couple...
Of course I realize it, but itās not because the dealers wanted it. Itās because everybody went insane over Covid and are scared of their shadow. I was working in Texas when they dropped all the restrictions before anyone else. As soon as they started to relax the restrictions, the dealers there...
This is exactly why I seriously doubt this will happen. The dealer associations will raise holy hell and file lawsuits left and right. This model will eliminate the spur of the moment sales where people just drop by to look at all the shiny new cars , havenāt done any research, and arenāt...
Yeah, that really burns me up. If theyāre going to be greedy scumbags, they can at least be up front about it. Iāve contacted more than a few that list at MSRP but either basically laugh at you, come back with 20k markup, or never bother responding. Thatās the most irritating of all. We ran...
If you can wait a couple months, you should check with Granger Ford. Theyre one of the forum sponsors. Theyāll order a Mustang at 4% under invoice minus rebates. You might be able to get into a new one for pretty close to what that used one will cost.
Everybody says buying new is dumb, but our...
Former SHO owner here. I miss her every day. Sold her and our s197 to buy the s550 vert and now thatās gone too. Donāt feel too bad for me though. Next toy will hopefully be a 22 GT500 if a couple people drop out of the pre order list.
For your question, I wouldnt worry too much about major...
The blend door actuators are what they were talking about I think. Itās up under the dash. They are small electric stepper motors or vacuum actuators. Iāve never had an S550 dash apart, so Iām not sure where they are exactly. Try this thread...
Since the compressor is running and you have pressure in the lines, itās probably not a leak or Freon problem. Doubt it would set any codes you could read on a basic code scanner. You need a more advanced scanner or forscan to read the PIDs that would be helpful.
The big line that goes through...
Since you didnāt mention seeing a cloud of refrigerant and oil right before it failed, Iāll assume you didnāt have a catastrophic failure in the refrigerant circuit. Since it happened suddenly and was working fine before, that tends to rule out a slow leak or clogged up filter.
Are you getting...

Manufacturer says it will work in 2014 to current. It worked fine in my 18.
How about $215 shipped as long as itās in continental US. I can ship tomorrow.
