  1. First Time Manual Owner

    Try and keep the RPM no higher than 2k when engaging the clutch from a stop in 1st gear. All other gear changes, you should never be pressing the gas when your foot is on the clutch. Keep hill assist ON for the first few hundred miles. After you master that, think about rev matching down...
  2. End all be all of Downshifting

    You choose between wearing the clutch or wearing the brakes, once in a while I practice the speed matching but most the time just coast in what ever gear I was in until the revs drop below 1k and then clutch/break. I don't usually go to neutral, keep it in a useful gear even though the clutch...
  3. Looking at a new GT

    All of the cars on the lots when I was shopping had black interiors. It causes the whole interior to be extra hot in the summer, if there was one thing I would like to have changed it would have been to get a lighter color.
  4. Headlight Adjustment

    If anything the lights on 2016 are on the high side. I get drivers flicking their brights at me on a daily basis. Probably should go back to a dealer for adjustment but I haven't yet.
  5. Poll: Parking your car for the winter.

    I have people telling me my mustang is too valuable to drive through a NY winter, but there driving quad cab pickups year round that cost $20k more so I don't understand. I might pick up a Nissan Leaf for the winter since the depreciation over the first 4 years makes a used one crazy cheap and...
  6. Daily driver

    I would put heated/cooled seats on the need list for a daily driver, and that rules out the recaros.
  7. Do you let your pet ride in your mustang?

    My dog is family, wife and I couldn't have children. We flip down the back seats for her to lay on and avoid letting her in the front. Black labradoodle, black interior, isn't that big of a deal. We don't always use the seatbelt/harness thing, but when we do it isn't long enough to let her in...
  8. Long trip in the EB- the good and the bad

    In August I took my GT with the heated/cooled leather seats from NY to Yellowstone and back, 4500 miles. My wife and I found it the best road tripping car we've ever had, very comfortable. I'm 6 foot 1 @ 230lbs. Only had two real complaints, out west where the speed limits hit 80mph the...
  9. Are any S550's being used in Law Enforcement?

    Not a S550, but, Monroe County sheriff in Rochester, NY.
  10. Making a Smaller Passive Key Fob

    I've seen the circuit board for a F150 with remote start, the circuit board is slightly different shape. I assume the automatic Mustang with remote start shares the same remote as the F150.
  11. M6G GIVEAWAY CONTEST: J&M Products 2015-2017 Mustang GT X-Pipe Resonator Delete

    2016 Mustang GT at the bottom of Beartooth Pass in Wyoming.
  12. I hate 1st to 2nd Gear

    Shift 1-2 below 2k revs or above 3k and its easier to be smooth from what I've found.
  13. Floor Mats

    I'd considered either 5.0 or GT embossed Lloyds mats back in April and didn't realize they were canceled. All I'm seeing now remaining are Shelby mats and I don't think I want Shelby mats in my GT, I'd want front and rear mats. Bummer. I hope somebody else comes out with quality custom fit...
  14. Insurance claim question

    I'm pretty sure all the prices come out of a book. If your insurance is to pay for a hood and fascia they'd pay the book item cost plus the book cost to remove old, install new and paint. Your insurance is then out of the picture and your free to negotiate with your collision shop to install...
  15. Got rear ended. Quarter panel question

    The car I traded on my Mustang had a quarter panel repaired. Because its welded in it counts as a frame repair on the carfax. Expect a hassle trading it in when you decide to sell.
  16. Would you drive your GT for work? (@55cents/mile)

    For 240 miles you can rent cheapest available rental, unlimited miles, a tank of gas, and come out extra dollars in your pocket.
  17. Playing Sync3 Shaker with the engine off

    Will I have any problem listening to the radio for a couple hours (4 or 5) with a Sync3 Shaker system with the engine off, or is the battery drain too high. Possibly going to the drive in movies this weekend for the first time with the new mustang.
