    Where have all the GT's gone

    The ford online inventory listings are wrong. The dealer I ordered my car from had a black V6 and a green GT. When I got home I was surfing online and did an inventory search, and it said they just had one grey V6. I checked over the weekend and it still listed the grey V6, but when I...

    Alright...fess-up! Who are you trying to impress??

    My daily driver is hittin 100,000 miles and time to get a new car. ALthough I'm not really a car-freak, and see cars as a means to get from one place to the other. I did want to get something that would be fun to drive and has the best kick for the price range I wanted to pay. SUV's &...

    Insurance Rip-off is driving me away!

    I'm not trying to be a dick but... this is what the salesperson said. They want to close the deal. They realize that million to one this will never be an issue and if they say otherwise, they will lose the sale to the salesman who does. Salesmen NEVER EVER EVER want to introduce FUD in...

    Insurance Rip-off is driving me away!

    Change the fact that young drivers make up 7% of licensed drivers but account for 14% of all fatal accidents. Fatal accidents cost a lot of money. Sorry, that's the brutal truth. Deal. If they live with you, make yourself the primary driver and them the occasional. Then hope the...

    The Dealer call and said Ford "Pulled"my order!

    There was a post sometime back that the cars were produced in such a way that all the cars that were similar were produced on the same day. So Monday might be blue GT Premiums, Tuesday Red V6 Deluxs'.... etc. This would certainly make sense from a manufacturing point of view to have all...

    Is Windveil Blue a feminine color?

    Well, to avoid any chance of having my gorgeous lemon lime car be classified as "effeminite" I'm going to try getting the License Plate "Bullitt", "Bulitt 1" or something similar. I do wish it were a little darker green though.

    Is Windveil Blue a feminine color?

    Yea the LL stands out more IMHO. I was looking around the road today and didn't see any other cars with that color. Black and Red are cliche for a sports car. Yellow screams "look at me!" Legend Lime on the other hand has f---ing personality. Kinda like a margarita, sweet and cool, but...

    My Engine is Out of My Car...All of the threads

    If you want to get ford executives take notice, start posting in all the ford stock investor forums on the web. such as Yahoo, etc. Nothing will motivate a suit more than when their 100,000 shares start to drop after analysts hear rumors that a major product line is experiencing flaws. I...

    Can you put together a better stereo for $600 or less?

    S500 is suppose to have 6 speakes and you get 8 speakers in the S1000.

    Is Windveil Blue a feminine color?

    I've decided I would rather drive a car color that girls prefer over guys. My goal isn't to impress men and have them want to come and take a ride with me. I want hot firm breasted college co-eds to say "oh what a pretty color car you have, can you drive me back to my sorority house?" (I...

    FORD SUED FOR MY COLOR

    Of course not. That's why we have impartial judges who consider the facts and consequences of their judgements (ideally). If the courts were to stop production of every product whenever there was a patent infringement levied against them then nothing would get manufactured in this country...

    FORD SUED FOR MY COLOR

    Even if the guy has a case, I can't see the judge stopping the entire line. The economic impact it would create over a relatively minor feature would be pretty big. Thousand of people would go without income because of a relatively minor patent infingement. If it was a safety issue I would...

    Is Windveil Blue a feminine color?

    I orderd the Legend Lime and admitedly that is a concern. I suppose it's kinda like ordering a yellow ferrari. Yellow Jetta or Yellow Sunfire is very very gay. However you could add a fur coat, sparkles, and a hello kitty picture to a ferrari and it would still be cool. ... and if some...

    FORD SUED FOR MY COLOR

    The problem is that a patent should only cover the process, not the idea. If it covered the idea, then once a concept was patented then there would be no benefit in improving on a process with the same goal in mind and science and progress would be stifled. If ford is using the same process...

    Side Airbags

    I'd sure hate to go to my demise thinking of all the people I had yet to piss off, humiliate, and destroy just because I wanted to save $300. And realistically over the course of the next 5 years I will spend more than that on lottery tickets hoping to win something with significantly lower odds.

    Where are the mustangs being built?

    Bummer. besides, if the car broke down 100 miles outside detroit in the middle of nowhere then I'd be quite pissed. Better to stick around here where I'm no more than 3-4 miles from a ford dealership at any time.

    Where are the mustangs being built?

    Hmm.... 300 miles. Fly out on Friday for $52 one-way and pick up car. DTW is about 11 miles from Flat Rock, so $20-30 for cab. Friday night a cheap motel = $50 So $150 for me to drive it versus 625 delivery charge. Saturday, a 4-5 hour drive home in the new car. I guess my...
