  1. Time to move on

    No more Ruby Red ecoboost. We had a good time until the lease ran out. Strange seeing an empty garage bay now. After 3 Mustangs and a whole bunch of fords it's time to move on. Enjoy your rides :)

  3. E85 Vs 93

    "When switching fuel octane, it takes some time for the PCM to adjust ignition timing to take advantage of the higher octane. This value is known as OAR - Octane Adjust Ratio and is a multiplier. It starts at 0 and learns from there based on knock feedback towards +1 for less than optimal...
  4. E85 Vs 93

    E-85 eewwwww..... Only folks that like that have to be folks that grow corn. This is the Ford brochure for the 2018's. It's a pdf file. Do a search on Octane. All the footnotes on power are obtained using 93 octane...

  7. Exhuast Sound Kills Elderly?

    Mine came on all at once walking down a hallway. What's crazy is how incredibly loud my tires can be driving on porous pavement. The roar isn't coming in your ears, it's a vibration your skull is picked up. And you can't put ear plugs in or wear ear defenders to silence it. In my case, it...
  8. ****RUN IN THE SUN 2018****

    Dinner update... We will be there for dinners 2 & 3 only. There'll be 2 of us. Thanks....
  9. Exhuast Sound Kills Elderly?

    At 85db I'd suggest, for long term hearing safety, your son wore some type of hearing protection. http://dangerousdecibels.org/education/information-center/decibel-exposure-time-guidelines/ http://www.noisehelp.com/noise-dose.html Doesn't "sound" like a big deal, but after 40 or more years of...
  10. Passenger Foot rest / support?

    Thanks for the links Cobra Jet. Appreciate it. And I just don't get the sarcasm and bravado of some comments. Thanks for the help??? And, yes, melwff, it's been experimented with. Its not too pleasant riding with your face in the dashboard with the seat moved all the way forward even with...
  11. Look what followed me home tonight!

    Sweeeet .... :first: btw, how much did Ford of Clermont pay you for that neat Ford of Clermont sticker on your trunk ??? :doh:
  12. Passenger Foot rest / support?

    Anyone come up with a clever / substantial foot rest for our front seat passenger? I know there are any number of ladies out there that can't really brace themselves for "spirited" driving because of their height. And, no, we aren't wedging a plastic foot stool in the foot well. And we...
  13. Exhuast Sound Kills Elderly?

    Wow. And I thought mine was annoying. A 24/7 high pitched whine. It's pretty interesting how many car guys have tinnitus. I went to a Christmas car show and, in just casual chatting, 3 guys said they where living with it. It's not fun guys, protect u'r hearing. If I can hear your mufflers...
  14. Exhuast Sound Kills Elderly?

    And another way to put it: What you are, I was. What I am, you will be.
  15. Pretty disappointed with new 17 GT buy

    Try lowering the front passenger's or driver's side window down an inch or two.
  16. Exhuast Sound Kills Elderly?

    Two things come to mind: One is there is noise and then there are sounds. And crotchety old folks where crotchety young people once. I can't believe I'm saying this after all these years of crazy mufflers, but, after 50 years around jet engines and my own exhaust sounds and noises, a very...
  17. ****RUN IN THE SUN 2018****

    I'm in for 3 of 3 :) Planning on dinner in Morro Bay, overnight in Salinas and Sunday night in Cambria.
  18. Master Blaster vs Leaf Blower + Compressor

    A 20 year old Toro leaf blower and good ear muffs to protect what's left of my hearing. :thumbsup: Have yet to scratch anything with it.

  20. Close-call thread (Dash Cam)

    I have an earlier model Rexing and the V1. The V1 battery stopped charging??? and would not keep the date. I wrote a negative review on Amazon bringing out that point. Within a couple of days I got a note from Rexing asking for my address so they could send me a replacement cam. So I guess...
