After a two year hiatus weāre back In another vert. I didnāt realize how much I missed it. The one thing I do miss bout our ā16 is the A/C controls. This touchpad isnāt for me. Iād rather have my buttons and controls. The two things I wanted this time was 19ā wheels and active exhaust...
Just a FYI for some that may not be aware. The front latches will get dry from sitting up and with the top up you may get a metal popping or rattle sound directly over head. Put a little lube where the top latches to the frame and back to normal. Jf
Have any of you had any experience with these? Iām looking at the blackfin xl, primarily for the wife to take on vacation. Her concern is the inflatable part. Is it rigid enough etc. thanks
I know itās not a guy thing, but most of us have or will have em. My wife teaches kindergarten and every year she has the kids paint a Jackson Pollock style painting on canvas. Some of my favorites.
Why do people post pictures of their car or truck that theyāre selling at a gas station at the fuel pumps. And usually itās at night. Even if it was a vehicle I was interested in I wouldnāt take them as a legitimate seller.
My wifeās windshield on her Pilot was horrible from water spots to jet fuel residue from leaving it at the airport on two occasions. So today I took a razor blade to it then a clay bar and not much better. My wife suggested some stuff weāve had for cleaning the glass shower. Bio-Clean. A bit...
HRE FF15ās in liquid silver 18x9 front and 18x10 rear. All wheels have centering rings, TPMS, and center caps. Wheels are in very good condition with no curb rash, scratches, paint chips etc. Tires have around 15-20k miles on them with good even wear. Neither have been abused or tracked...
I have a ā16 GT vert and test drove a ā19 GT vert the other day and it just felt smoother than mine. Both on 18ā tires, both non-PP. Out of curiosity, I started googling differences or upgrades Ford did it 2018. The only thing I found was an article in that referenced Ford went to a new cross...
I recently got a quote to sell my ā16. The dealer pulled a CARFAX report and questioned me about DAMAGE REPORTED back in May 2018. I said Iām unsure, because nothing has ever happened to the car. So, I pay my $39 to get a copy and sure enough it shows damaged on that date. So, I open up an...
For a month or so Iāve had something bumping metal on metal in or around the cabin. Couldnāt pin point where. Last we found it, parking brake cable wasnāt tight enough allowing the tensioner to bump the bracket directly under the drivers seat on the transmission tunnel. Takes a 10 mm wrench to...
In installed these axle backs with Steedaās H pipe. They sound great, except from 2200-2700 rpms when moderately accelerating. In that rpm range the sound gets high then drops back off to a super nice tone all the way up through the rpm range.
Will adding their resonator smooth that out...
I installed these on my ā16 non-pp GT Convertible auto with HRE 18ā wheels with 20k miles. I donāt race or auto cross, just a weekend cruiser for two 40+ year olds. Prior to changing them out the things I didnāt care for with the oem shocks/struts was I felt like I was riding on the rear axle...
Iām going with 18x9 front and 18x10 on the rear. I want to keep as much of the same tire diameter as the original oem tires. If I understand it right, the originals have a 27.3ā diameter. Iām bout to order 255/45ZR18 for the fronts that are 27.1 and 285/40ZR18 for the rears that are 27. From...
I know there's a big thread already on the DL vibration, but my question is to other vert owners is if I have the DL vibration or if this is a normal character of our verts.
When I bought it new, GT, I noticed right off it I could feel every ripple in the road and I would get a shimming...
Curious to who has put axle back mufflers on and sound quality, good and bad, on the verts. All the videos seem to be coupes only.
I like the sound of the oem's, but would like a little more during acceleration, but retain the quietness at cruising speed with top up and down.
Edit, I just...
We made our first road trip from west La. to Big Bend National Park in west Tx. Top down on the trip there and while there. On the return trip it as up. Fuel mileage average was 24 mpg with an average speed of 55 mph if my math was right. Like most have reported the displayed fuel mileage...
