Exactly why I pulled my battery out of the damn car and took it to Ford. They tested it, found it defective, I picked up the new one and installed it myself. They originally told me I would have to bring the car in and I told them I'd be PISSED if I had to do so.
I have mine on a battery tender. My Viper battery will drain down enough that it won't start after about a week and a half of sitting - though it takes a lot of juice to get that thing to turn over, the battery is rated for about 900 CCA .My Tacoma sat for about 3 weeks and fired right up no...
I saw a photo of a GT350 that went through a car wash which peeled the front pointy end of the front fender back like a banana. It looks like it is a thin aluminum skin over an aluminum base. Check out the photos - these were uploaded by an owner named Reggie in one of the facebook GT350 groups.
The shelby lettering on the doors looks like those generic letters you can buy at Pepboys by the letter.
The description is full of all kinds of incorrect info.
I own a 96 Viper GTS and bought a 19 GT350R about a month ago.
The Viper is fun to drive. It gets lots of attention. It has gobs of torque.
The GT350R is a really special car though. I haven't driven my Viper once since picking up the GT350.
Actual recalls are valid for the life of the car.
This isn't a recall, it's what Ford's calling a Field Service Action as it appears they're blaming aggressive shifting as the root cause as opposed to an improperly designed or manufactured component.
Here are my previous fun cars.
1992 Honda Prelude Si 5 speed, fun little car.
2011 Mustang GT 6 speed with Brembo Package, first V8, first RWD. N
1996 Viper GTS that I still own along with my GT350R.
