  1. The electrified Mustang Ford should have made… S550 Mach-E build project

    Was this sitting outside? How did the interior get so rusty?
  2. Coolant discrepancy and dealer doesn’t seem to know anything, as usual

    Yeah, not turning on at all. I don’t think it’s my imagination either. When they used to turn on, it was audible. Now, regardless of A/C running or not, I hear nothing I’ll start with topping off the coolant and see if that has any positive effect. If not, I’ll have to see what else it might be...
  3. Coolant discrepancy and dealer doesn’t seem to know anything, as usual

    Oh? It’s a good inch and a half below the “minimum” mark. I always heard that if it’s not filled to capacity air pockets can be introduced into the system What else do you think it could be? Just a bad thermostat?
  4. Coolant discrepancy and dealer doesn’t seem to know anything, as usual

    This is another good point. Even though the mileage is very low, the overall age is not. Thank you
  5. Coolant discrepancy and dealer doesn’t seem to know anything, as usual

    Hmmm… Good point. This is a valid consideration. Thanks for the tip
  6. Coolant discrepancy and dealer doesn’t seem to know anything, as usual

    Hey all So, the other day I took the car out for a spin and hit a bit of traffic. While idling, CHT got up to 229. Which is the highest I’ve seen. Fans never turned on We’ll, when I got home I let the car cool down and when I checked the coolant level the next day, this is what I saw...
  7. Best Mods to Modernize Your S550’s Interior – What’s Your Favorite?

    Do you happen to have a link for this? Or the product’s name? Tried reverse image searching it but nothing came up. Thanks
  8. Getting wheels for the pp1? Need info

    Go for the Apex EC-7 or EC-7RS. 21.5 lbs and 20 lbs, respectively I have them and love them. You will notice the 14 pound (if I remember the PP1 wheel weight accurately) per corner weight loss immediately
  9. Best first mods

    Disagree with everyone who has said that braces are useless. How can tying the two sides of your car (shock towers) to the fire wall be of no benefit? You’ve created a giant rigid triangle. No more flex. My car is a base 2016 GT. There’s train tracks that I have to cross if I want to get to...
  10. Just ordered Antigravity Lithium Battery

    Well, thank goodness that these tenders ARE smarter than I am, lol. Thanks for alleviating my fears @Evolvd and @galaxy
  11. Just ordered Antigravity Lithium Battery

    Ok, idiot alert here I just got back from a drive. Parked the car in the garage and hooked it up to my OptiMate battery tender. The only problem: I swapped the terminals and hooked the negative cable to the positive terminal and the positive cable to the negative terminal. I know; a real...
  12. Interesting drag race

    Except the Mustang is Ford's flagship! Unlike Chevy which had the Camaro and the Corvette, the performance model for Ford has always consistently been the Mustang. The GT40 has always been an expensive year or 2 special and then it disappears Ford should have invested in the Mustang's...
  13. Interesting drag race

    It's not a useless metric. There's a reason it came about. It tests a multitude of aspects of a car. Grip, chassis sophistication, power to weight ratio, weight distribution, electronic/software advancements. Why do you think that Porsches are so adept at the 0-60 blast? They've been...
  14. Interesting drag race

    I didn't miss your point. You missed my point. A engineering minded company will find ways to improve a model. Chevy decided to. Ford hasn't. Sounding silly is all you, my man.
  15. Interesting drag race

    No, I get what you're saying but that's what the base GT is for. For the person who wants the V8 cruiser AND the comfy ride. But even the PP cars have all that rubber. And really, you can do away with all that rubber sloppiness in the sub frame and still have a comfy ride via a good spring...
  16. Interesting drag race

    I mean, don't get me wrong. Ford switching from the solid rear axle to the independent rear was a very important and vital step. I just wish that they would have given it more thought. It's just so sloppy back there. Rubber everywhere. It's just not a nice feeling when you're going hard in the...
  17. Interesting drag race

    I agree with this. Found it very annoying that I couldn't get the Performance Pack on my automatic equipped 2016 GT. Had to buy all the components separately and install them myself. Ford wised up from 2018 onward.
  18. Interesting drag race

    S197, S550 (S550 refresh) S650. What I'm saying is that Ford made no progress in acceleration between the S197 to the 15-17 S550 then made a small step from 15-17 to 18-23 then no step from there to the s650
  19. Interesting drag race

    Congrats on proving my point for me. Chevy decided to devote the time, resources and finances to engineer a better product. Ford for S550 to S650: "Hey, let's plaster a massive iPad to the dash, give it some hideous, busy-body styling, and call it the S650 to fool buyers into thinking that...
