They are a great tire - just hoping Firestone doesn't catch on otherwise we'll see a price increase... Then again, maybe they should catch on because we might have some more tire sizes to choose from. In any case I've had zero issues with mine and they feel the same today compared to first day...

Thank you - kind of you to say. She is great, got it from her mother. She asked when I take the mustang to a event if she could go. I said yes. She may even head down to Button Willow in April with me - will spectate the private event there. I see the A-10 avatar - pilot? I'm not a pilot...

If my daughter can learn to drive a manual, then so can you. By no means do I mean this disrespectful to any woman or anyone's daughter. Truly, so don't go there. I say this because this is a true story how she learned to drive a manual transmission at 17 (all three of my kids learned to...

Lol - all is fair in love and war I guess :) I've bought a couple cars from Elk Grove Ford actually, so good to have a contact there - thanks. I don't recall meeting Jeff before but will seek him out if he is working when I drop off the car next week and introduce myself. Had a few...

Funny statement - just catching up on the thread when I noticed this bit. Similar thought came through my mind when I was swapping steering wheels to the GT350 and removing the air bag. I've been around a lot of munitions in my life, including nukes, but disconnecting and reconnecting the air...

You raise a good point. Thanks. Sticky or RE7's would be way outside my skill level if truth be told. That and of course additional storage needed for them. This is interesting though because I never really paid attention to the "tire" factor when I do take the car to a track in the future...

Thanks. I wasn't sure so wanted to ask :D Added to my calendar and looking forward to it. Thanks again.

Why do we assume it is a track car? Or what track are we talking about? GT and GT350(R) is track / twisty. GT500 is typically 1/4 mile / straight line speed. Also previous GT500 eclipsed 200 MPH stock - not sure why media is ogling over that number. And it did it with 662 HP or there about.

Patience is your friend if you are shopping for a GT350 or R model. That was the mistake I made when I bought my GT/PP. ADM was crazy but people still found reasonable deals. I didn't have patience and ended up with my GT/PP. I can't complain at all, great car, and honestly, more than my...

I've been looking at various rims over the break and always come back to GT/PP stock or 285/35 square with the Indy 500's. I personally love the tire and think it is the best bang for the buck at the moment. Problem is there are not a lot of tire size options. 275/40R19 is it for the 40's...

2018, Mustang, Auto, GT, 11 second car. Nothing new, move on. Sort of like any one of us putting our grandmother in Michael Schumacher's Ferrari back in the day and winning a F1 race. Cars are so good, anyone can do it. Or putting her in Michael Andretti's Cosworth powered Indy car and...

That is a good deal actually.

Back in the day isn't that what the T-bird was for - what, 55'ish? Not sure if Ford needs to do anything. The Mustang is starting to blur with the various engine and configurations. I guess it isn't a lot but you have the base, then GT, then PP 1/2, 350, 350R, GT500 soon, and special badge...

At least you got one thing right - it was an opinion.

Hi 50 Deep - this sounds really cool. Never been to Buttonwillow nor know the location...but now I do and it seems to be about 3 hours South :) Are you, or does Buttonwillow, allow spectators? If spectators are allowed I am in Sacramento and would love to drive down and check it out. It has...

If you want to tighten up the car a bit and take your GT to PP or levels beyond than post #4 by BmacIL is what you want. Minor suspension corrections has a kit will do wonders especially if you ever decide to take the car to a track. Holiday season is over but there are some great sellers here...

EV may be the future, say 50 years from now, but not today or tomorrow without heavy government subsidies that companies are getting. Even then the technology isn't there for rapid recharge, distance of commute(s), and above all affordability for the masses. Ignore the sport car segment for a...

Not sure what industry you work in but it is always US first...Auto manufacturing may get a pass but more often than not it is the US that takes the brunt of the work force reductions. IT, consulting, etc. Heck, IBM has more employees in India and is boasting about it compared to the US.

I thought the seats are different but maybe I didn't sort through enough of the images. I was expecting something along the lines of what my Recaro's looked like but ignorance on my part. And yeah - the black, when clean, is a really sharp looking car. It displays the lines on the body very...

Hmm...I don't remember ABS light. Need to run an errand this morning and will see how it goes. Thanks for the tip and will check. Scheduling an service appointment once they open. Thanks again. -scottf
