    I found it.... Bought my new Ford GT yesterday

    I'm partial (blue no stripe) but I think the stock wheels "look" right. If you want a change; use AZGT's idea. Take the factory center caps off and replace with small f150 caps and new lug nuts. I got mine from Torrie. These have the added benefit of being easy to keep clean...

    So.... anybody ready to start talking about alternative gauges for the FGT?

    How about another tack? Do any other FORDs use similar ECU control of the gauges? Maybe we just need the guts out of an F150 TACH, VOLT, AMP, or Speedo gauge? In my naive way of thinking, these should be pretty stupid digital gauges, the ECU gets all of the inputs and does the processing...

    Viper plant on TV tonight

    I've watched a bunch of these "factory build" shows lately. There is another series on Speed too. Mercedes new Gull wing, Bentley, Ferrari, BMW, Porsche 911, etc.. The Viper factory was the dirtiest, with the poorest lighting of all that I watched. I was surprised the engine building area...

    Is a Heritage worth it?

    From a rarity point of view, the Heritage shouldn't be worth more than another color. It's not that rare. There were 343 Heritages built in 06. Yet, only 171 (96+75) Yellow cars were built in 05 and 06. Wouldn't yellow be more collectible? I guess it comes down to desirability vs rarity...

    Rent your GT via RelayRides

    I'm not sure what kind of beater I'd would rent out if I was only going to make 65% or $6/hour ($3.90). It would take longer to clean the car after one renter spilled his/her coffee...

    Replacment Rearview Mirror For Homelink, Compass and or Temperature Display

    The difficult part of replacing the GT mirror is the dome lights built into the mirror. There is no dome light, so a replacement gentek or mito mirror with map lights just doesn't have the same light intensity to see anything inside the interior. I haven't see the mustang part referred to by...

    Odyessey Battery model

    I have the 1400. It is taller than the OEM battery and is a tight fit, but it does fit just fine. It sure is nice not having the car on a charger a week before I can use it! The dimensions of the 1400 are listed as 9.46 H, 6.58 W, 8.69 L. The 1230 are listed as 9.46 H, 6.99 W, 7.92 L...

    What are they selling?

    I would "assume" stronger axles? Can't tell if the stock CV joints are reused or not.
