The Car Talk guys said it best: Locked doors don't make a car structurally stronger, but CLOSED doors do. And locking the doors makes them more likely to stay closed in a crash. http://www.cartalk.com/content/today-how-do-locked-doors-help-during-crash The doors should automatically unlock...

I'm implying that the possibility exists that they could cross the line at such a proximity that you have no time to react. My point was that car jacking is not the sole reason for this feature. In fact I doubt it's even the most important reason in the manufacturers eyes. This should not...

Yeah but if you have some lost moron staring at their phone cross the center line, your structural integrity is increased with the doors locked (or so they say). They probably get a bump on their crash rating if you can't disable the auto lock. Just like they get a bump on their MPG rating for...

MSRP stands for Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. But dealers are allowed to sell the car for whatever price below (or above) that they wish. True car uses data from actual transactions to come up with the average price people are actually paying for cars like yours. This helps you with...

I would love to see a picture of you (the OP) sitting in the seat, because I can't understand how your head touches the headrest.

From having lived in Florida where part time residents is almost more common than full time residents this comes up often. You have to pick what you will consider your permanent residence and get a driver's license in that state. Any car that spends more than a certain number of days in the...

Mine took 5 weeks from build day to delivery. I don't know if my Black roof delayed things as others seem to have gotten theirs quicker. I think the stripes add extra time after build as well.

You are describing rear cross traffic alert not backup sensors. The rear cross traffic alert comes with the BLIS in the 401a package. The backup sensors only see things directly behind the car from about 6-10 feet and just a couple feet off to the side of the car. They also only work with...

I have the setting that moves the seat back when I shut the car off, but I only have to press my start button once. My seat moves forward at the same time the car is starting.

Sorry I wasn't clear. I meant it affects throttle response in all Premium Mustangs. In addition to that if you have an automatic transmission it will affect the shifting. So it affects Stability control/Traction control, steering feel and throttle response in all Premium Mustangs...

I don't believe the car has an actual oil temperature sensor so this won't be possible. It uses the oil pressure and RPMs to infer the temperature and thus the dummy gauge is all you can get.

The modes affect throttle response as well as the transmission in auto's.

If you have a Premium with drive modes, Track mode disables Collision warning. I have had collision warning in an Explorer for 5 years now and I admit it does have a few false alarms especially with someone turning right in front of you. You know that car won't be there anymore by the time...

In all previous Ford's I've had, the Miles to empty is based on a rolling 500 miles of average MPG and is not resettable when resetting the trip. If resetting the trip actually made a difference you would see the miles to empty jump around like crazy when you first reset it because the average...

I dont' know about the crappy GAP coverage the dealer sells you, but GAP coverage from a real insurance company does exactly what you say it won't. Even the article you link to says it will. This is from esurance's website: what’s the “gap” in gap insurance? Simply put, the gap is the...

Is it possible that the four sets of "01" match up to the four windows in the Fusion? Thus for ours to work it may be 0726-17-01 0101 0000 or 0726-17-01 0000 0101 (and the appropriate checksum of course).

Sub'd.... would love the remote up and digital speedo. The Mustang speedo really is tough to read at a glance.

I did the quote on Flood Ford's site and took it to my dealer. They matched it with no hesitation.

Ford offers a smartphone solution as well. We have it on our Explorer. https://accessories.ford.com/aerial-asy-10667.html

I just got my 2017 Mustang with Navigation last week. I was shocked to find out that the street my work is on is not shown. It is a new road, but has been there over 2 years. I looked through the screens and it looks like my maps are dated Q1 2015 (if I'm reading it correctly). Is it not...
