  1. Wife’s 2018 GT 10R80 went Kaboom!

    I understand how your wife feels, I had a '14 Maxima with the CVT that went out at me at 80k miles. It did not cause me to lock up but I never trusted the car after replacing the transmission and shortly after fixing traded it for my mustang.
  2. Help me justify a price-short throw shifter

    Memorial day is about 2 months out, usually some good sale opportunities there. If you're looking for savings and not needing it immediately (I know this 2nd part is hard for me too), you may want to consider waiting and see if you can get it on sale.
  3. I hate bad old drivers.

    I don't think old people aren't bad drivers, I think most of Florida is bad drivers. If you know East Tampa at all, I'll give you the perfect example. I live in Apollo Beach, not many old people around here, but if I go 5 to 7 miles south on 301 I'm in Sun City Center, plenty of old drivers and...
  4. I hate bad old drivers.

    Your perception is not backed up by statistics. The FLHSMV stated that drivers between the age of 25 to 29 caused the most accidents in the state of Florida at 79,457 crashes, with 206 of these being fatal. https://www.flhsmv.gov/pdf/crashreports/crash_facts_2021.pdf Is Pinellas county...
  5. Which caliper paint?

    I did, I cleaned, cleaned, cleaned some more day 1, so I know the prep was good. Day 2 I used primer, VHT paint and clear coat. It lasted about 2 years before the flaking was so bad it needed to be redone. I striped them down to basically bare medal, used G2 and did it over a long weekend, I...
  6. MEME THREAD 2.0 - NO POLITICS OR ANYTHING YOU WOULDNT WANT YOUNG KIDS TO SEE [READ THE WARNING]

    HAD??? My grandparents had this alarm clock and it's currently sitting in one of my spare bedrooms. It's true what they say, they don't make them like they use to! :crackup:
  7. New Home Purchase (Mortgage Question)

    Some good advice already, I'll add another thing to consider. Start building a emergency fund. I've been laid off 2 times over the last 15 years or so. Having a savings account saved me 1 of those times as it was 6 months before I found a new job. Which oddly enough, is the amount of money at...
  8. Steeda Shifter Base Bracket and Transmission Mount Bushing Insert

    Here's another option to consider. I replaced the trans mount and shifter bracket with Boomba parts and replaced the fluid with the BG Syncro II. I have no issues with shifting afterwards. Pics below of both the original and replacement parts. There was very minor noise and vibration and Boomba...
  9. Reckless Driving

    That's exactly what's going on in some of the larger cities in the US. The thought process being it's more dangerous to chase in high traffic areas and the risk of crashing or injury are greater than catching the criminal. I'm not sure what side of this I fall on, probably somewhere in the...
  10. Shocked by medical billing.

    I just had an ER visit in December, which turned out to be a kidney stone. The bill came to $15,094 and I was admitted and released within about 6 hours. My insurance is through my employer and is a 80/20 split for emergency services, with me being responsible for the 20%. They billed me for...
  11. Is it just me or is this a steal? 2020R 16K mile for 66K- shows clean title 1 owner

    I'm 45, I have a 07 F150 that I refer to as my "beater" and the mustang. Both are paid off and I have no debt other than my mortgage. I've been saving as much as possible for retirement so I can buy one of these high dollar performance type cars when I do retire. Believe me the itch to buy a...
  12. Is it just me or is this a steal? 2020R 16K mile for 66K- shows clean title 1 owner

    Thanks, I'm not very familiar with the 350s, outside of my price range. That's not exactly true, better said outside of what I'm willing to spend LOL.
  13. Is it just me or is this a steal? 2020R 16K mile for 66K- shows clean title 1 owner

    Don't the GT350Rs come without a radio?? Pic from listing. Here is the title of the listing Used 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R w/ GT350R Equipment Group 920A I'm wondering if that first R is a typo?? There's a pic in the listing of the vin, so I'm sure someone with check and let us know.
  14. Anyone regret buying a ragtop vs a coupe?

    I'm not a rag top guy, I learned that many years back when I got my mom's 89 Chrysler LeBaron convertible as a hand me down in college. It was a decent car, ignoring the fact it was not ideal for a college kid. But I learned very quickly the convertible was basically useless living in Florida...
  15. Suggested mods for 2015 GT - 50th Anniversary Edition

    I saw that movie and always wondered why it wasn't more popular. Defiantly had the star power with Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Sir Ben Knisley, Lucy Liu, Stanley Tucci and Josh Hartnett. Also I thought the story was great, but never really took off in popularity even though I really enjoyed...
  16. Winter Has Arrived — Mustang Sleeping!

    You just wanted to make us all jealous of that amazing view. Considerate it successful with me, however only partially. I grew up in Camillus, a suburb of Syracuse NY, I have no desire to live anywhere where it snows. I'm starting to get chilly when it dips below 75 here in Tampa Bay :crackup:
  17. The more I see the S650s, the more I know I've had my last Mustang for the foreseeable future

    Not likely based on this article 2024 Ford Mustang GT California Special Gets A Love-It-Or-Hate-It Style Update (msn.com) "Ford notes that the California Special package is available to order today, Nov. 9, and it will make its first public appearance at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Nov. 16...
  18. Side Marker Lights

    My vote is for clear, since it will tie in with your taillights and reverse light.
  19. Ford Mustang GT350 Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler

    Any idea when the carbon fiber spoiler will be back in stock? I keep checking, the black and forged are the only ones available.
