I've had a couple of times when the water seemed to quit beading but that was after driving through some really heavy rains. There will come a point when the water will get through I guess. Once I was out of the heavy weather and the top had a chance to dry off, the next showers I hit, or the...

I'll second this one. I've used both. The West Marine protectant appears to do a good a job as the 303 and it's noticeably cheaper. Also, I don't spray it on, I brush it on. You'll wind up using much more of the product in the application process but it also works better and last longer. My...

Well, I made the adjustment. I've kept a fuel log on my Mustang ever since I took delivery. I write down date, mileage, gallons taken to fill up, and my calculated mpg followed by the computers calculated mpg in parenthesis. Turns out I've filled the car up 66 times. I added all the mpg...

Actually, I like that the radio stays on until I open the door. I wish it would stay on regardless of how long I sit there instead of shutting down automatically after a couple of minutes. I just discovered this conversation. I'm looking forward making this adjustment in the morning!

Looks impressive but, no disrespect intended, something doesn't add up. 38.1 average mpg, only 183.6 miles into the tank, and only showing 71 miles to empty? I'd think MTE would be closer to 200 or so under these circumstances? Just wondering? Steve R.

Hey guys! BINGO!! The memory seat settings was the answer. I knew they stored the seat and outside mirror positions. I had no idea it also saved the instrument cluster and ambient light color preferences. I just went out and reprogrammed the lighting colors and saved it to the memory...

Ok, I thought I knew how to do this. I mean, it's not exactly rocket science. I bought the car a little over a years ago. I went through all the user setup menus and set my instrument lighting colors and ambiant lighting colors, in my case, blue, at that time and that's where it's been ever...

Totally agree, Johnnybee. My Mustang is my third convertible. The other two being a 1988 Chrysler LeBaron and a 2004 Honda S2000. I've also got a little experience with a few British sports cars because of my Dad, including an MG Midget (1967 model) that I learned to drive an manual tranny...

I've heard similar stories with other manufacturers about European dealers not wanting, or not being allowed, to sell Euro spec parts to us in the States. I don't get that, especially in this case. I'd think a wind deflector like that would be an obvious accessory for any convertible. Why...

I bought my car, took it home and put the caps on. They weren't quite as intuitive to install as I thought they might be but it wasn't bad. I like how they look but I'm not going to take the time to install and remove them every time I want to cycle the top. So my caps now reside in my...

I wonder why in the world Ford won't sell this accessory in the States?

Likewise! Having said that, I don't have to floor it every time I come off a red light to enjoy the car. Whether I'm running it up on a freeway on ramp, or cruising around town or out in the country, I just enjoy this car. I enjoy the sound and feel of it, and that's the bottom line!

Um, I never heard that before. A signed repair order is authorizing them to do a requested repair or maintenance cycle, oil change etc. It does not alleviate them from responsibility for any damage that "they" might do to the car during a test drive or otherwise. That's what "their" liability...

Likewise, only mine has 21k+ miles and so far, no problems at all. Hope I'm not jinxing myself. Only aftermarket on my car is a set of pneumatic hood props.

Well, if it's supposed to anticipate where the revs "should" drop to for sequential shift, then mine does a lousy job of it. Actually, within a certain rpm range, it's not too bad, but outside of that, it misses the mark more often than not. I did finally adapt to it and my upshifts aren't too...

The car isn't rev matching on an upshift. If the system would simply let the engine drop normally when you let off the throttle during an upshift, you could catch it at the appropriate engine rpms when you shift. Unfortunately, the system doesn't let the engine rpms drop right away. From what...

I had to smile at this one. You're used to full size SUV's so the Mustang feels small to you. I drove a Honda Civic for seven years so for me, the Mustang feels pretty darned big. It's definitely a lot heavier car. It's all in your point of view! ;)

Fender mounted turn signal indicators used to be relatively common with some American manufacturers in the late 60's through the 70's. Chrysler had them on most of their Chrysler's, Plymouth's, and Dodge's in the early to mid 70's. The first car I ever bought with my own money was a 1975...

Why what?

True that! I bought a 2016 GT convertible last November with the 401A. It's got the BLIS, memory seating, and the upgrade radio. I don't remember the Shaker radio upgrade being available as a stand alone option. I thought you could only get it with the 401A but I could be wrong about that...
