I am sure you're not alone, but I don't agree.

I never can tell if articles like this are intentionally deceptive, or just willfully ignorant. In the above statement they compare the annual salary of the average American worker to the typical US CEO. What, precisely, does "typical" entail? Is it "average"? I doubt it. If it was average...

It doesn't seem to be posted on any website (that I can find), other than the various Mustang forums, but a photo has been posted a million times (by my count) on this one. Note that the title is not nearly as clear as it should be. A little punctuation would have gone a long way. It says...

I have to go with "Don't Care". Just now, my Notifications showed "2". When I clicked the down arrow next to it, I could see that they were both "New Post Quotes". Didn't seem that hard to me. I see others saying that it makes them think that they have a PM, but looking at that drop-down, it...

If they are giving you "X-Plan Pricing" without a PIN, keep a really close on on the back-end fees. There isn't anything you can do about tax/tag/title fees, but look for the various (unitemized) "documentation" fees. X-Plan limits them to a *maximum* of $100. I have seen (looking back on some...

If you are eligible for X-Plan log into the Fordpartner website (fordpartner.com) with your partner code. You will need to do this to generate your PIN anyway. There is a build & price tool there which will give you your *exact* X-Plan price. If your dealer is not asking for a PIN, then he...

Search the forum for "15-030". That is the number of the TSB that will apply if you have a non-performance pack GT manufactured prior to Feb 2015. If yours is an affected car, they will replace your front rotors with an updated part, and replace your front pads with the same part number...

They were on a BREAK!!!!

I want to know why I can only thank this once???? Seriously, I have no problem with misspellings and typos - they happen to everyone from time to time. But these aren't examples of that. These are examples of using a word that means something completely different, because it *sounds* the...

If you have a non-PP GT or a PP EcoBoost with a date of manufacture prior to sometime in February of 2015, and you have a brake squealing issue, then TSB 15-030 probably applies to you. The TSB calls for the front rotors to be replaced with a new part number, and a new set of front pads (same...

I won't be home till late tonight, but if I remember correctly, I have around 600 hours of drive time and a little over 23,000 miles since 11/25/14. Something to keep in mind - on my wife's Focus, she had some warranty work done which involved the dealer flashing something or other, and she...

Best worst movie ever!

You keep using that word - "Revolutionary". I do not think that it means what you think it means.

Thank you. I think of it a lot like flying an airplane - it requires 100% of your attention because the likelihood that a mistake will kill you is exponentially higher. But I still love doing it. My canyon racing days are behind me, but I love spending a day seeing if I can completely avoid...

My dad bought me my first dirt bike when I was 6. I just turned 50 and have pretty much owned at least one bike during every one of the 44 years in between. Dad was an instructor with the MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation), and had a unique way of putting things. I will share some of the tips...

The most efficient way to use your A/C is to turn on Recirculate mode. Since the compressor runs when the pressure drops due to warm air from outside (typically) passing across the evaporator, feeding already cooled air from inside the cabin to the evaporator will delay the pressure drop and...

Noise =/= Power Noise =/= Fast Noise == Noise, and therefore has no inherent value. If noise is what you are after, why don't you just tape your horn button down? Cheap, easy mod.

For me, the PP was a non-starter. Much as I would love the firmer suspension goodies, I bought my car to drive - I was on track for 25k miles the first year, before I changed jobs. The staggered setup leaves you unable to rotate your tires, accelerating treadwear. The summer-only tires wouldn't...

O'Reilley's website shows replacement alternators at 175 amp for cars without heated seats, and 200 amps for the ones with. That should indicate that Recaros would get you a 175 on a GT premium, and leather would be 200.

Engage cognitive dissonance.... NOW!!!! To what end? You have already said that you won't change your mind. There is clearly no "proof" that you will accept. I am pretty sure that NASA isn't completely heartbroken to learn of your disdain for them. Sorry, but Snark is my native...
