  1. What kind of alignment problem do I have?

    Rolling around under the car changing my oil this weekend, I'm horrified to see this [no, not the crap on my garage floor]... it's mirrored on the inside of both front tires.
  2. Friendly exchange with a Dodge owner at the liquor store in this Christmas season

    Had a very nice exchange with a Dodge Challenger Scat Pack owner today - we both pulled into the liquor store at the same time to stock up for the holidays. Both of us have blacked-out cars, and he says, "I like your car" and I said the same to him. We exchanged a few other niceties about...
  3. Stranded by a throttle body

    I was heading down the entrance ramp to the highway going to work, giving it the usual Italian tune-up. At the bottom of the on-ramp, every blinkenlight lights up on the dash, and into limp mode I go. Fortunately there's this handy place to pull off away from traffic a quarter mile down the...
  4. Car won't start

    Out of nowhere - tonight, I punch the button like always, and the starter just spins and spins. Nice and snappy, but spins for several seconds then stops again. It's always started after maybe a second of cranking, very predictable and reliable. It's a 2018 GT PP1 MT82, never given me a lick...
  5. Me: I want leather seats and MyColor. Ford, 2022: No.

    I'm busy dreaming about my next Mustang. My must-have list: Mach 1, handling package, ball chillers, active exhaust. Looks like I'm all good. But... my 2018 has all that, plus... My Color selectable colors for interior lighting. With the 2022 configurator, I can only get MyColor with Recaro...
  6. Had the misfortune of being at the head end of a 5-car pileup...

    So four of us citizens are lined up at a stoplight, and along comes car #5 at a good clip, no brakes, just... bang. Here's the results of that first impact: Car1 by David Schmidt posted Jul 10, 2020 at 1:28 PM By the time the force made its way up to me, it was just a nice solid tap from...
  7. Idiot-proofing not enough for sufficiently clever idiots

    From the "save me from myself" department: was sitting at a light, first in line on an uphill stop. Mindlessly dinking around with the reverse lockout collar as I do when I'm bored, waiting for traffic. Light turns green, I put it in reverse. Figured it out pretty quicklike, but the guy...
  8. Ford Performance Carbon Fiber shift knob threads - bad?

    I'm on my second Ford Performance CF shift knob from CJ PonyParts, and they seem to have some terrible threads on them. Am I just unlucky, or is that what they're supposed to look like? Here's the second one they sent me after returning the first: Here's how high it sits when it's cranked...
  9. Wheel well shroud chewed up

    Problem on my new-to-me '18 GT Premium PP1: the left-front wheel well shroud came loose, and the tire chewed it up and spat it out. My question is: would this be the sort of thing that is covered under the warranty? I'm just about to tick this thing over to 11,000 miles, so the base warranty...
