    Bought a New Challenger - Sorry Ford, Rant Included

    I glanced at a few of the posts on here.. Perhaps the underlying problem with your attempt to purchase a Mustang had to do with the dealerships and not FORD?? :shrug: There is a dealership that is ten miles from my house.. I would NEVER buy a car from them. Complete shysters..irresponsible...

    2010 Mustang Rust --Glass spots--Engine tap

    Any pictures? There are 'bubbling' issues on the aluminum hoods, but I have never heard of rust. Muffler issue sounds like a Roush problem. Engine knocking? Are you supposed to be using premium?

    Sattelite radio antenna mounting location question - 2006 GT

    Before figuring out how to 'gut' the factory Sirius antenna, I had my XM antenna under the windshield, on the dash. That lasted a few years until I dissected the Sirius trunk antenna. I don't have pictures at the moment but I took a small XM antenna and hid it inside the Sirius 'bubble'...

    My Mustang iPad Install on a 2006

    Wow - great idea! :nice: The Shelby already has a Pioneer unit, but I do need something for the F-350.. Unfortunately, I will not support AT&T and their exclusivity with Apple.. the best phones/devices, on the CRAPIEST network.. If the iPad ever goes to Verizon, I would consider this. Any...

    stock cluth life

    So no downshifting from high RPMs? :shrug: Even 5th to 4th? I alternate between downshifting when stopping, or just shifting to neutral and using the brakes. Regardless, downshifting from any gear, to the next lower gear, just seems so 'rough'... the engine and tranny seem as if they don't...

    Recommendation for a rental trailer to transport a Shelby GT500.

    Whoops.. re-read your post. U-haul will work.. just get creative with the ramps using blocks, etc. Extend the ramps on the trailer, then run lengths of wood past the ramps. Drive your car on the wood, then the ramps.. This is how I get my car on ramps for oil changes.

    Recommendation for a rental trailer to transport a Shelby GT500.

    I'm taking my Shelby GT to Vegas within a few weeks.. (hopefully).. It only has 23,000 miles on it in 3 years.. so I don't drive it everywhere.. but still, 600 miles won't hurt. Back on topic though... U-Haul. They have very nice aluminum OPEN car trailers for $50-$60/day, unlimited...

    Toyota halts production on 8 models....

    ^^^ I agree... American car companies have had periods of inferior quality.. it's as if they were asleep, the Japanese brands took over, and now they are finally awake.. with a bad hangover thinking, "WTF just happened?" :rolleyes: I owned an '04 Mustang.. it had some quality issues, but it...

    Toyota halts production on 8 models....

    Here is my $.02... And please, if it is offensive, ignore it.. :p A lot of people claim that you should buy Fords/Chevys/etc, because they are American cars, and that helps support the American economy. True. :flag: Opponents to this logic say, "Oh but Toyotas/Hondas/Hyundais/etc. are built in...

    UPDATE!!!!! Ok.. dropping the car off tomorrow morning (Wednesday). I will be taping a notice on the dash that warns whoever drives the car about the lowered suspension, hood pins, current mileage, and to not use towels on the paint. Oh boy.. scared to let someone have possession of this car...

    Shelby was hit.. Need some advice regarding insurance.. Pics inside!!

    That's good to know! :nice: I guess it amazes me that we have to protect our air in California, yet we are sharing the same atmosphere as the rest of the world. I am all for improving how we use our resources, but not when it comes to hurting local businesses, when the end result is a drop in...

    Shelby was hit.. Need some advice regarding insurance.. Pics inside!!

    The fact that it was a plastic Saturn helped a lot.. ' The 'visible' damage is very minimal.. In person, however, it is all underneath the bumper, below the quarter panel.. :(

    Shelby was hit.. Need some advice regarding insurance.. Pics inside!!

    I'm getting this same response, whether from family, co-workers, or Mustang forums: Mercury is trying to get away without paying a dime.. Everyone says the $10,000 coverage is BS! My insurance will be calling me tomorrow.. I will make sure that I don't have to pay anything... Thanks...

    Shelby was hit.. Need some advice regarding insurance.. Pics inside!!

    Hey everybody, I have been fortunate with this car.. 22,000 miles with only some rock chips and a small dent.. UNTIL now- I was rear-ended (on the driver side) by a Saturn, which was rear-ended by a Dodge Caliber.. I was in the turn lane to get on the freeway.. stopped.. and the Saturn was...

    SOMEONE BACKED INTO MY '07 GT/CS HELP!

    Definitely go with the paintless dent removal before going thr bodyshop route.. I have used this method before on a variety of dents and it works amazingly well.. If anything, it will look better than going the re-paint route... which, in a lot of cases, is usually quite obvious, depending on...
