In all honesty, I do like your sense of humor. :thumbsup:
In that same vein, the following week I'll be covering the following topic, "Everything I know about cars I've never personally owned and the idiots who do own, but know nothing about them". :D
Thanks for all the responses. It looks like the shocks are OK after all. The dealership is calling a field engineer to confirm.
...the rear end sure feels better. :D
...I like this guy. :ford:
I have known about the shipping blocks since the GT350s came out (as evidenced by my original statement, regarding others who had reported the blocks being left in), but was told they were removed on my car when I picked it up. I never checked their work, and the...
I can’t believe this - I took my GT350R into the shop for a nail in the rear right tire. I happened to be there when the tech took the wheel and tire off, and his eyes got huge - the rear shipping blocks were still there!! :mad:
It looks to me like the rear shocks are damaged (as I have over...
LOL! No worries!
Speaking of HP, I have to say that I’m REALLY interested to see how the new GT500 stacks up against the Dodge Demon. As a tried and true blue oval fan, I’m afraid that Dodge just ate our lunch! I mean, the marketing lead up and owners crate were / are amazing...not to...
Great points, regarding the unnamed Ford potentially being the new Bullitt.
And, as someone else pointed out, they’ve done this before...even with Ford. In January of 2015, Ford announced the GT350R at the Detroit Auto Show, and then immediately turned around and auctioned off VIN 0001 at BJ...
Sooooooooooo, I have a prediction!
Check out this link for an unnamed "Ford Charity Vehicle" at Barrett-Jackson:

$20 says it for VIN 0001 of the new GT500...which I believe will be revealed at the Detroit...
I think the reference is to how difficult of a request you've made, as most people have struggled for months (some years) to find an R at MSRP.
...just a thought.
:ford:
BTW - the lead has been shared with the first respondent, and I'll send it to the next person on the list, if the first person doesn't pull the trigger.
I've found 1 (possibly 2) R Models in the deep central south at $2,500 over! The one I know is available is a white/blue stripes electronics package, and the other is lightning blue with white stripes, electronics package.
PM me for details! :ford:
Thanks for asking!
I have not done business with them as they seem to be elitist (e.g., I'm smart and you're dumb, regarding price).
Let me know if you want me to swing by and take a look at a car for you. Happy to help! :thumbsup:
Hey Lurker_350. Yes, I sold my 2016 GT350R a few months back. However, I couldn't help myself and I'm back on the hunt for another R :ford:.
And, all is good! :thumbsup:
One thing to keep in mind; which I know is happening a lot - it's best not to post the dealer information directly, as it can create quite a bidding war.
I called "Sean" from this post, as I'm looking for an R, and he said that he lost count of how many calls he had received on the car, and...
