I had an incident and broke my right leg around Halloween. I needed a couple of surgeries to fix things and I'm doing better now. I won't be able to drive until I heal enough to get rid of this boot. Probably at least another 6-12 weeks. IDK for sure. Because of the injury, I was unable to...

I have long had a problem with marking my tires when I change over from snow to summer or vice versa. Chalk rubs off too easily. Grease pencil is difficult to remove. And I can never find one when I need it. So I designed this. It goes over the valve and is held in place with the valve...

When changing from the 305/30R19 summer tires to 275/45R19 winter tires, what tire pressure should I use and why? The sticker in the door jamb says to use 33 psi for the 305/30R19 OEM size tires.

Long story short, the battery died because I'm not driving much anymore. Now the car isn't doing something it was doing before and I don't know how to get it back. The car is a 2019 GT PP2 with 401A and the manual transmission. When letting out the clutch in first gear, the revs used to rise a...

A full set of four 305/30-19 Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires from my GT PP2. These tires have less than 20 miles on them. The PP2 wheels were taken off the car with 15 miles on them when I took delivery and have been in storage since. (They have more miles in the back of my wife's Mazda3...

Stick it under the passenger seat headrest. It's still high enough that it'll pick up front laser (whatever good that'll do) assuming nobody's in the passenger seat. For a while I had it there with just a friction fit. It wasn't very secure. Now I stepped up and designed and 3D...

I needed a place to store the special security hex-wrench for my hitch-mount bike rack. So I designed this, 3D printed it and installed it on one of the sub-woofer mounting bolts. Its secure and out of the way and I won't lose my hex key. The STL file and more details are here...

A full set of four 305/30-19 Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires from my GT PP2. These tires have less than 20 miles on them. The PP2 wheels were taken off the car with 15 miles on them when I took delivery. I put them back on the car for the 1.5 mile drive to the shop to have them taken off...

It has been a long time since I had a car worthy of obsessing over the finish, and this stuff wasn't around then. By all accounts, this hybrid ceramic wax stuff sounds pretty amazing. A brief search of Amazon for hybrid ceramic wax produces lots of results. I'm suffering from the paradox of...

I've had a few requests to share my 3D printed phone holder. I put it up on Thingiverse. I'll say again, it's not a universal mount. It will really only work with a Pixel 3XL with a Spigen case. If it does work with another phone, it'll be a coincidence. The holder mounts to a Proclip...

The car is a '19 GT Premium with 401A. All was working as expected last time I drove the car. On this morning's commute I plugged in my phone into the USB port in the dash like I usually do, which charges it and launches Android Auto. But today, there was no power and no Android Auto...

I've been away from Autocross for ~10 years and the rules have changed a lot, but I'd like to get some seat time in my PP2. I understand it's classed in BS for 2020, right? As delivered from the factory on the Sport Cup 2 tires, is it eligible for BS? Or would I have to change the tires to...

I found it in the cupholder the day I took delivery of the car. It does a quarter turn to release and open.

Just to unmount and give me the tires back. For unmounting 305/30-19 Sport Cup 2 tires, the dealer wanted $25 each. That seemed high, but Sullivan Tire wanted $50 each. Then I asked Town Fair Tire, and the guy said $3 each. I don't know what to think.

I'll be taking delivery of my GT Premium Fastback PP2 car Saturday. (I'm very excited!) What should I keep an eye out for before I take delivery from the dealer? Are there any Mustang-specific things to look out for? There are numerous guides about general things to check like: inspect the...

There's a car I like in MA. The price is high-ish. $48k with a $52k MSRP. There's another car in CT or RI, I think. Can I buy there and have it registered in MA? How does that work? I don't want to get hit twice on tax. There are a bunch of cars I like in MD and VA. The logistics of buying...

Apologies, because I'm sure this has been asked before, but my search hasn't found anything. Could I be the first one to put snow tires on a PP2?! As far as clearance, the PP2 isn't an different than the PP1. Correct? Same brakes. I like to go with the narrowest snow tires I can. Would...

Long time lurker; first time poster. I'm looking at a Mustang for my next car and I have some questions. Fastback GT Premium 6MT 400A Safe and Smart Performance Package 1 (or 2) Nice to have - Magneride I do not want Recaro seats. That's a dealbreaker. I gotta have the heated and...
