At the Ford dealer in Bremen, GA... about 40 cars which seems like a lot for such a small town. But there Are Mustangs everywhere! Saw a 24 on display and was underwhelmed. I think Ford shot themselves in the foot- especially considering the prices on them. I loved the Gran Torino wagon and the...
Good article from Hagerty's... I would still buy a wagon/shooting break version.

So, I had a 2015 EB that was a disaster- had the unfixable driveline vibration and the AC problems. I had 2 challengers since then, one was flawless and one was another Mustang type disaster. What do I need to worry about on the 23's? I would assume that all the problems are worked out by now...
My local dealer has a Mach 1 on the lot and has had it for at least 6 mo. What are Mach 1 prices doing right now? Are they going for over sticker? I know used GT's are selling for crazy money on Carvana, Vroom, etc. If I can buy this car for sticker (about 56K) and drive it for free due to crazy...
The Incredible Story of the Great Cannonball Boom
When the country shut down and the highways thinned out, a stealthy group of amateur car obsessives glimpsed an opportunity to revive the fabled cannonball run—the highly daring, absurdly illegal cross-country endurance race. And in the...
Questions on the M82 in the 2019's... Is it the same in both the GT and EB? Have there been any problems with it since the shift fork thing in some of the 18's? I ask because I'm currently lemon-lawing a Challenger and thinking of getting another Mustang but the lawyer handling my case flat out...
A couple questions on the EB with the PP...
1) Is it lowered from the stock height? I have a very steep driveway and stock height cars will make it but most lowered cars won't.
2) Is the ride quality significantly different from the base EB or GT?
I currently have a Challenger with the Super...
Good article from Bloomberg...

This graph shows Ford's problem in North America... The rest of the world is helping out, though.
Couldn't deal with the unresolved problems anymore... vib problem, rear end groaning when turning left, AC evap undoubtedly going to go bad after I'm out of warranty... Anyways, The Dodge dealer here gave me such a killer deal that I couldn't pass it up- 7200.00 off MSRP and 2000.00 more for my...
It's getting time to replace the Goodyear F1's that came on my car. They are getting noisy and rough. Since the car is a DD that spends 90% of it's time on the interstate, I really want the smoothest, quietest tires I can get. I'm guessing Michelin touring tires like MXM4 or Premier? Anyone have...
Very cool... these kids did an awesome job and deserve the coolest car at SEMA award! I love seeing the passion passed down to the next generation.

I'd like to take some more roll out of the car without increasing the ride harshness- or as little as possible. Any problem using GT PP sway bars on my base EB or is that overkill? They seem to be almost give-a-way parts in the for sale forum. Suggestions are welcome...
I currently have a base EB automatic with the 18 in Foundry wheels. My only real complaint is that I hate the 3:15 axle. There is a 2016 EB PP with a huge discount at a local dealer that I'm considering. My question is how much stiffer is the PP suspension? The car is a daily driver and I don't...
Just the little local car show here in Villa Rica, GA. Less than 100 cars but the quality of the cars was really outstanding. I'm an agnostic when it comes to cars so I've thrown in a few other brands too.
Your expert test will be to name the vehicle with the green straight 6 engine and then...
Interesting...
With a slowing market for cars, Camaro’s inventory rose to a 139-day supply at the end of August, said Jim Cain, a GM spokesman. The incentives, coming at the end of the 2016 model year, helped lower Camaro supply to 120 days, still twice what is consider an optimum...
Getting on the hwy tonight I accelerated- maybe half throttle or less and I heard two backfires and saw a decent amount of smoke behind me from the exhaust. It was momentary and the car seems to run fine- the car was completely warmed up at the time. Drove about 20 miles and no apparent...
Just got back from my annual pilgrimage to our summer place in Canada- about 2200 miles. The EB is really a fantastic alternative to any of the generic economy cars. I averaged 34mpg (calculated by hand) and that includes going through the mountains of TN and KY. Speed was 70-75 most of the time...
This seems a bit cheesy but I guess they are trying to clear out excess parts. I'm betting they will sell quite well, though.
