Trying to keep it as short as possible. 22 ecoboost, purchased 10/18/22. Ordered 2/6/22 so over 8 months wait. That was strike one, but I knew it was going to be a wait-however the selling dealer was not keen on answering questions that I had, and originally stated a 4 month wait. after...

wasn't planning on getting rid of it anytime soon, but if the Ford dealers aren't willing to work with me, I'll dump it and go back to driving an old vehicle. This is ridiculous.

22 Ecoboost premium. Doesn't come with fog lights. Are they a simple swap in, plug them in and install a switch? Or more involved?

if it came that way, which I believe it did, then that would be a defect in manufacturing and workmanship-which is warrantable. So on these cars, where does alignment change? What I'm asking here is, how does alignment change. If it just changes while I'm driving, then I'll sell it and get...

got it up the lift and looked closer. Front tires are wearing on the inside, and feathering is occuring. So I took it to the dealer I bought both cars at and they kept it for 4 or 5 days and said they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Service advisor said that the only thing he knew to do...

No, the tires are wearing perfectly.

22 Ecoboost premium, all stock. Sold my GT, kept the Ecoboost. I drive the ecoboost a lot more; I like it better too for a daily. Anyway it has the stock goodyear tires that came on it, got about 17,000 miles. Rotated at 7500 and just did it on the last oil change. These tires are LOUD...

update and a fix. Called dealer and they were backed up. It was time for an oil change anyway so I pulled it up on my lift and did that. While under it I started looking at stuff. Exhaust had a rattle. Behind the transmission the exhaust system has a rubber hanger. The rubber hanger's...

the old FE's, particularly well-built FE's do have a sound all their own. The Mopar RB-based engines are similar, can hear one a mile away. They both have their own sound. If you spend much time around them you know, if you haven't you don't know. A big block chevy based anything, they all...

a drive shaft sticker would rattle while in motion only. Mine does it sitting still, in gear with zero movement. I'd have it on the lift right now if the lift was freed up....you outta see my shop. FULL (customer's stuff). does not make any difference if the park brake is on or off. I leave...

Driving me crazy. I cannot for the life of me find this rattle. 22 ecoboost A10 premium. At idle in gear only, rattle sounds like under the car. More of a low pitch rattle, as if something were hitting the floorboard. Yet, I get under it and can't see or hear anything rattling. ONLY at low...

I feel the pain. I ordered my new ecoboost in April of 2022, it finally arrived in October. To say I was anxious was an understatement. I've been mostly happy with the car, particularly MPG. That's why I bought it. Within the first 2 days of ownership it had 4 rock pecks in the windshield...

I have a small collection of "classics" (some of us call them old cars, some of us call them a collection some of us call them junk). They can't be replaced and often can't be repaired either. Hence, I do not drive them much. The day will come when they'll have to go away, and it may be...

One thing worth mentioning is the replacement cost. Non magneride struts typically come in about $120 each (rear anyway), with the MR struts being about 3x that. Each. sometimes that's not an issue. But I keep my cars longer than most people do and that stuff IS an issue worth thinking about.

22 Mustang ecoboost premium. I can roll the windows down remotely from the fob, but not back up. I like to leave them cracked during the summer while parked at work, helps let the heat out. But occasionally a shower or thunderstorm will pop up out of nowhere with little warning, and I gotta...

in my area liability coverage is the highest. Comp & collision are cheap in comparison. Liability only on my antique is $238/year. Comp & collision are an extra $71. The ecoboost is similar but a little higher $$$ on both points, liability is the most expensive of the two. By far.

Compare it to earlier Mustangs. It's pretty good in comparison Ever drove one with a stock C4? And we griped about the T5 breaking all the time. And A4LD's puking the front seals. And the 4R70's and AODE's being sluggish. Can't please nobody.

What's a new car cost? Average $48,000? Teslas in different trims can be close to $200,000. And they are everywhere. New F-150's can be up to and over $70,000 Silverados, $70,000-$110,000, depending on the trim. body shops charge out the nose to fix them, costs for everyone keep going up...

Federal. They make you fill out some paperwork if the cash amount is over $10,000. Form 8300. Cash has a definition too, and some types of payments are not legally considered "cash", thus avoiding the paperwork. cash does not include personal checks written in the name of the person who...

went through all of this with my old fox body. Some companies want it garaged (fine-I do that anyway). Some have mileage restrictions. One said 500 miles a year max. My goodness I drive that much in a weekend. So in order to keep that type policy up to "par" I'd have to buy a trailer, HAUL...
