I am curious as to where the 12 speakers are (2022 B&O). I see 2 in each door, 2 tweeters in the A-pillars, I assume one (or more?) center dash speaker, 2 rear deck, and the sub. I count 8?

I once rented a Scat Pack Challenger (before I had my GT). The clerk actually measured the rear tread depth before I took it out. When I returned it, I told them "You should not rent...
As I stated in my original post, the delta here is 30 cents/gal, but that is for 91 or 93 with 10% ethanol. Alcohol free 91 or 93 is much more expensive, if you can find it.
Interestingly all of my cars get nearly identical mileage, despite widely varying performance. One of the reasons I am very glad I bought the GT and not a Ecoboost Mustang:
Mustang GT 5.0 450 HP
Cadillac XTS 3.6 300+ HP
Ford Edge 2.0 Turbo 245 HP
I understand and agree with your argument IF there is a performance improvement with 93, that is what I am trying to determine. The Car & Driver article linked to above is certainly inconclusive, at least as to some models. The cost is not really an issue, but why pay extra if there is no...
For a stock, street driven 2022 GT, does 91 or 93 octane fuel make a noticeable difference? (i.e. is it worth using?). The price delta from 87 locally is 30 cents/gallon.
Now that colder weather is here, I have concluded that the Pirelli P-Zero Nero tires that came on my GT are just about worthless for acceleration. A light foot is required to avoid issues. Thinking about ditching them for some Continental DWS 06 Plus, as I do want to retain all-season tires.
My state requires a front license plate, so I installed one via a Sto N Sho quick release bracket. I instructed my wife to take care with same when parking, but somehow she managed to literally rip it right off the car. I keep it in the trunk with the Grabber Blue piece of the car still...
I did the same thing with an airplane. I sought out the current owner via FAA database (not the person I sold it to) and offered him a DVD with complete maintenance history, all receipts, and logbooks. He had received very little of that info from my buyer.
I recently bought a new 2022 GT. I thought Fords are using orange coolant, but the coolant in my overflow tank appears to be green. Did the factory fill with the correct coolant?
I just bought a new 2022 GT that came with the 3:55 gears. The first few gears are extremely short. In fact, during light acceleration, the car routinely skips 2nd gear on its own, and I likely would not notice but for the digital display. I don't know if you get different ratios in the...
