I parked next to local Ford dealer employee today, driving a '14 GT 5.0.
He told me that the '18 GT500 will be announced within 3wks with deliveries starting September or October.
Then he drove away!
Who knows?
Hi Goose17,
440sprint here! I have been away for some time but would like to be able to resume my lifetime membership at the FordGT500 forum.
I understand that you will send me a new password and instructions on how to resume my membership there.
My email is [email protected].
Thanks,
Jim...
Other than minor defects with your '13-'14 GT500, has anyone had any factory defects repaired under the factory 36,000 mile/36 mo warranty?
Will you purchase an extended warranty before 36K miles or 36 mos? If so, from who?
I've had none at 18 mos & 5800 miles! I'll never reach 36K miles...
In 2012, 5.0 Magazine included these two Trinity development articles that I re-read occasionally for pure enjoyment, and giving me (us) plenty of bragging rights when discussing our own Trinity:

Has anyone else had an incorrect credit card charge appear, apparently for "Tire Centers Inc #785"?
I have already cancelled the card, will get a replacement soon and will not be charged, but I would like to warn everyone that a fraudulent $5,251 charge to a "Tire Centers Inc #785" appeared...
Is there test data or computer simulations showing the comparative engine cooling effects of different hood scoops, vents, louvers, etc., and their placement on the hood of our GT500's?
I see many variations but no data or claims of relative efficiency or preference, other than personal...
Since AC season is upon us now, I sometimes forget to turn off my AC when going WOT! Also, I rarely remember to turn it off when I get challenged on the street!
I always feel bad for my AC compressor when I do forget. Can the compressor or its drive belt be damaged by the tremendous torque...
My JLT separator does not have what Jay shows in his JLT/Shelby comparison video. Check out the fuzzy, round, metallic piece hanging down from inside the JLT cap's input at 8:06 into his video demo in post #40 of this thread:

Most usernames are uniquely un-decipherable, so why not let us all in on the mysterious meaning of your username!
My username comes from my high school track days. I was a decent broad jumper & 100 yard dasher. I broke my wrist in spring training football & could do neither track event nor...
I drove my '13 GT500 to my long time friend's Dad's 94th birthday party Sunday, 4/21. He was a WW II fighter pilot shot down in Italy but made it out! His stories are amazing!
He had to have a ride, but will he survive if I "get it on"? He hobbled up to the passenger side & I helped him get...
Local familiar street but late & in a hurry! Going 55 in a 45 & forgot to look for motorcycle cop!
My '13 Shelby saved me! Cop had to see engine & hear more great exhaust note. He only gave me a fix-it ticket for not having my registration in the car (bumb move). He even liked that I had my...
I read that Torco (MMT) may now be the preferred octane booster. I have a left over 3 gals of Mechanics Brand octane booster (57% tolulene, 43% ethanol, so I've read) from the high compression days about 20 yrs ago, stored in it's original 5 gal plastic barrel & kept sealed.
It worked great...
I went for the clean install & good looks of the JLT CC/OS about 150 mi. ago. I was checking out a new mechanic today by going over some concerns with my '13GT500 & he seemed interested in my JLT catch can. I had not pulled it off yet & it came off easily.
I unscrewed the can & was SHOCKED to...
