My manual, non-HP Mach 1 is what I drive every day. Living in the south it rarely gets too cold for the summer tires. I’ve driven it all over the country, and 12 hour drives are no problem (track mode exhaust can be a bit much for 12 hours).
If I lived in a city with a lot of stop & go...
I had the Ford performance x pipe installed at the dealer. A few months later, the active exhaust stopped working (oddly, immediately after driving the tail of the dragon). The dealer fixed it at no cost.
Using an iPhone ap, I checked decibel levels before and after the x pipe. In normal at 2k...
I’m 62 and I think that black rims add a lot of sportiness to cars that are marginally sporty looking, like my wife’s Durango RT. On a car like the Mustang, I’m okay with black or silver. I have magnetic painted aluminum wheels on my Mach 1 and I really like them. Not black, more like a light...
Just spent several days driving mountain roads in NC. Handled the corners with aplomb and the sound is so nice. She’s parked near the bridal veil falls.
I optioned a gt premium pp1 equal to my Mach 1 (non handling pack) and it was 51k. My mach 1 was 58k, which included the 1k appearance pack. Adjusting for the appearance pack, the difference is 6k.
Would I pay 6k for a dif cooler, trans cooler, oil cooler, gt350 front & rear subframes, upgrade...
I knew I would like the simple, yet elegant body design and the 5.0 rumble. Below are things I didn’t expect.
Like side mirror view of rear haunch.
Like how dramatic the start button is.
Hate the small fuel tank.
Hate the home button on the infotainment screen (prefer a menu of options at...
I’ve driven mopars most of my life. The first time I saw an s550 mustang, I was surprised at how good a mustang can look. Finally bought a Mach 1. Looks great, sounds great and it’s a blast to drive.
I’ve learned a lot reading the comments. This issue is probably more related to warranty work (normally buy used) rather than a problem with Ford dealers vs Dodge etc. dealers. I did not anticipate that, and it seems odd to me.
There’s a significant risk of losing repeat customers if you treat...
Thanks for all of the comments! I asked about a loner and was told that they can only provide a loaner after diagnosing the problem. Hopefully it’s something they can fix quickly, if not I should be able to get a loaner.
It sounds like I’m extrapolating this into the future too much. I can’t...
Never owned a Ford before. Had a lot of Mopars and Cadillacs. I purchased a Mach 1. So much fun to drive! Shortly after purchase, I noticed a puddle of trans fluid.
Called the local dealer and they said to tow it over and they would look at it in two weeks. Called a dealer 40 miles away and it...
