I actually did not mean that the Fusion is a car 'less than' a Mustang. I like the Fusion and would like Ford to actually make a 4-door based on the Mustang platform. The Fusion Sport comes very close. However, if one is shopping Mustangs then the 40k Fusion Sport is not really in the field...

Why would you want to spend that kind of money on a Fusion Sport? Okay, yes, it has a 2.7L Ecoboost V6 and AWD but...you could have a Mustang GT instead for the money.

I think aux injection may solve the issue with oil buildup on the valves as well.

To put it into perspective what are you comparing it to. A, B, C on what scale? I came from a boring 2012 Focus and an old F-150 so the ride and handling was a different frame of reference. Most of my time is spent in traffic jam putter mode and I think if I had a rumbling GT under my foot it...

Based on sales volumes it would seem that the .001% that think the EBM is too slow and trade for a GT are here complaining while the rest of us are out driving. ;)

Besides the core size, efficiency, and cooling capacity (cool down after getting hot) you also have the hose size connections, and package to be concerned about. For $250 you will get an intercooler that could be difficult to get into the car and then end up with function that is not what you...

If you live in a hot climate like AZ or MN in the summer time ( :cool: ) then you may have an issue driving up a 9% grade at full GVW+10% vehicle weight at full throttle. The little rubber air dam is for cooling flow through the radiator at the extremes of heat dissipation by causing a low...

Do you roll your window up at elevated speeds on your way up to highway speed? I have noticed on mine that when I am getting on the highway and I roll my window up at 50+ MPH the window does not make a good seal because there must be a low pressure zone pulling the window out. If I roll it up...

Mine is gone. One day I got to work and one side was dragging. Since I usually back in it looked like my horse's tongue was hanging out. Now it's in my trunk.

Call the Ford 800 number for customer service and let them know what happened and what the owner told you.

100% correct and I will add that it is the major reason the laws are changing to FIREWALL the OBD connection to prevent flashing and configuration. The calibrations that come out are like Rubik's cubes in delicate balance to achieve fuel economy and emissions standards. The 'easy' mods for...

No Don, it is not a midlife crisis. The myth of the 'midlife crisis' was created to explain the desire to want something the accuser does not understand. As a person who has had both Mustangs and various motorcycles since the age of 16 I have never stopped! At the same time I am constantly...

Oh gosh...you popped a can of worms. My recommendation...don't build at all. Just go for the GT350 and save all that aftermarket cash. There, the dumb suggestion is out and running around now!

This is all just silly ego stuff. Some of the 5.0 guys think they are top dog because their car is quicker than an EBM...got news for you...there is always a faster car. The EBM is nice, the 5.0L is faster...but so are Corvettes, Audi's, Porche's, Aston-Martin's....and the list goes on and on...

If it is construction causing the closures that information is fed to the Nav system via the Satellite Radio subscription (traffic, construction, and weather) which I choose not to subscribe to. So, like you, it is just lines on a map for me.

Damaged turbo fins and scored cylinders may point to the engine ingesting something through the intake. In retrospect, which side of the turbo were the fins showing burring? Intake or Exhaust side?

Unfortunate that you feel this way but try not to communicate your rash negativity towards a company that survived the recent horrific recession without declaring bankruptcy. I have had many Ford vehicles since the early '90's and have had much better luck than my buddies with their foreign...

DD my EB every day. 14,300 now and still going fine. Snow Mode worked out well last winter and so did being able to turn off all the nannies for hooning in the empty parking lots (snow covered). The car is a blast.

At Ford it is not allowed. M plates can only be driven by authorized Ford employees. If an employee gets caught loaning it out it is cause for termination. They cannot even allow test drives. It is possible the 'kid' is a new employee or intern.

Bone stock 50 year ecoboost manual with 13.5k miles now. It's gonna stay stock. I have had 3 other Mustangs including 2 GT's. The GT is faster... who cares. This thing pulls off idle like a tractor. I commute through rush hour daily and it is a great car to daily drive. Snow mode last winter was...
