Wanna see some real click bait? Motortube on youtube is some rich young kid desperately trying to make a career making car videos. Bought a 18' GT, owns a Hellcat (he claims its 1,000 horsepower). Constantly teases his audience that he is going to buy some super car and now claims he is...
I think all cars have paint chip issues these days. Its not just Ford, but all manufactures. Check out this guys new Hellcat Wide body with all the chips in the paint after 500 miles.
Late to the party and I don't know if this has been posted yet (too lazy to look at 23 pages of replies), but this ford mechanic may have found the root cause of the tick....
I had to re read your post after the first read through. No offense, but I hate your writing style. Its not clear and to the point.
Not sure why you are talking about how fragile the Mustang is....That's every car on the road. All cars are designed to crumple like that on a front end...
Sounds good. But I think the issue for most people who have this problem is that the tick develops after the first or second oil change.
I only put a thousand miles on my 18 before parking it in the garage for winter. I'll probably change the oil in it next summer. Hope I'll be OK.
For what its worth......my company car is an 18' Nissan Rogue. I get this same kind of fault during heavy rain and snow/slush weather. Probably just a lot of dirt on the sensor.
Also, if anyone here is thinking of buying a Nissan Rogue... Don't.
Not sure if anyone is read this back in the day, but when I was a kid I used to read CARtoons comics back in the 80s. For those of you who don't know what this is, its basically comics for muscle car enthusiast and gear heads. They recently brought the magazine back as a bi-monthly...
I bought some Weather Tech front floor mats and the trunk protector. The front floor mats show dirt and dust, but I swear they were clean until I walked across the garage floor! Very happy with the purchase of these!
If you ever have a chance to visit the Weather Tech factory store in...
A new car is a major purchase for some people. If I'm dropping 50K on a car, it better be exactly what I want. Personally, I view a new car as a long term purchase, one that I don't intend to sell or trade up after a few years. I knew it was going to be a special order to get the exact car we...
My opinion for what it is worth...
I ordered my 18 Premium GT convertible in Feb. Took delivery in early June. The car was going to be a summer weekend cruiser for my wife and I. Its a 401A, Auto, BLIIS, Shaker, Smart&Safe, 19 inch premium painted wheels...basically the car is loaded except...
Congrats on the ride! I have almost the identical car......an 18 convertible in Royal Crimson with the same ebony interior. Totally agree with you on the color. The website and the sales brochure don't do it justice. My wife and I were leaning towards the Ruby Red until we saw the Royal...
I was looking for a California Duster on Amazon and stumbled upon this video of a Maserati doing probably the worst ticking noise that I have ever heard of. Sounds very similar to what you guys are talking about with this tick out of the engine.
Once you click on the link, scroll down to the...
