    Buying a used rental

    Buying a car from a rent a car company is liking picking your wife from a house of ill repute … so many different people have driven it hard and without caring … I am not sure if I want to stick your key in it….

    I really miss the Gear Shift Lever

    I had an MKZ with the push buttons on the dash. Takes up no room and is in easy eye site. I like it better than the rotary shifter in my other vehicles .... but I would love to have a PRNDLL (pronounced Pa-Ren-Dell) on the tree!!! I remember teaching my daughter to drive. I told her to ease...

    Transmission fluid change

    I had this exact problem on my Mountaineer. I also change the transfercase fluid and it had slight vibration after that. I now have 2017 Expi and 2017 Fusion Sport. I am hesitant to change the fluids.

    Another winter/summer tire video

    I put Blizzaks on my AWD '17 Fusion. As long as the snow is not real deep, it handles better than '17 Expi with stock tires. I use to use my Musgang GT ad a DD in NJ. My round trip comute was 100 miles. With 4 snows it perfomed not to bad. It does have an Eton Truetrac, but a great deal of...

    Where are you from?

    Wow! I know before they started importing Mustangs into the UK there was a huge premium to buy one. How is the price compared to a Toyota Sequoia or Land Cruiser?

    Upgrading rear differential??

    Take credit! I went thru the process on my Mustang. 11 years later ... still no issues ... but there are horror stories out there.

    People are still very stuck in the old "solid rear axle required" mindset

    2020 Lexus LX and GX still has a solid rear. (Think Land Crusier & 4Runner) It is funny ... the media does not blast them for it.

    People are still very stuck in the old "solid rear axle required" mindset

    I race my solid rear axle Mustang on road courses. It has some Roush tweaks but the big change is the Eaton TrueTrac rear end. That makes a big differncein handeling. I love the way it handles. I agree with you rjdelp, the car magazines would lampoon the Mustang for the solid rear. Justly...

    MPG when towing

    Towing a car on a trailer resulted in 12MPG on my 2017. My trailer is a BigTex (heavy steel ... diamond plate ect) and the car is a BMW 3 Series. The 2017 towes better then my 2014 but if you are not careful with the Ecoboost you can end up in the single digit area.

    Expedition Hood Badging

    I think adding it ... makes it look more like an Explorer. I prefer the Expi's face to look more like an F-150 then an Explorer ... but maybe I am in the minority. Does anyone know if the XLT badge on the back has a hole under it? I know on some Ford vehicles like the Mustang, behind the GT...

    Why does Ford still use such wimpy brakes?

    Stopping distance has a lot to do with tires. In normal driving, the stock calipers work fine. My Mustang has 6 Piston StopTechs. When not on the racetrack, they perform very similar to Ford's standard calipers. The larger calipers substantially help reduce brake fade after 20-30 minutes on a...
