    Ford Extended Warranty on a GT500

    Anyone have experience with Ford's extended warranty on a Shelby? Ford is offering a 6 year/100k mile warranty for $4400. I know sometimes these prices are negotiable and coverage headaches can vary with the dealer/rep. But curious what others have experienced with claims on these. Thanks.

    Thanks, I was just searching the Florida region today. I'll expand my search area out as well.

    Was not able to find that 2k car for 85k anywhere on their site. Not in Florida anyway. I do see a lot of 500's for sale, but almost all with low miles were well above 90k. Still a great resource for locating cars!

    I passed that along to Alex, thank you!

    Thanks Bob. I had seen that post and told him to be patient considering the overall car market seems to be softening. Think he just happened to see this one local. Still, amazing any dealer still has one of unsold at MSRP.

    My brother-in-law has been trying to find a new non-CFTP at anything near MSRP without luck. No surprise there. Today he text me an ad hear him for a 2020 non-CFTP car with 6,800 miles and three owners. My first thought was not a great deal considering the spec for a two year old car with...

    Spy Shots: '23 RAM 3500 HD Caught With Air Intake

    Definitely not as common on the 6.4 but I still see people having the same issue. Plus the 6.4 runs tighter tolerances so when excess metal gets in the bearings it pretty much wipes everything out. Surprisingly when I pulled my stock lifters everything looked ok so not sure what was making so...

    Spy Shots: '23 RAM 3500 HD Caught With Air Intake

    I have a 15 (outside the 2014 recall window) and after 70k or so it started ticking. I change my oil at regular 5-6k intervals and always use premium synthetic (Amsoil, Redline, PuP). But with the 3 little kids the truck also spends a lot of time idling which I've heard contributes to the problem.

    Spy Shots: '23 RAM 3500 HD Caught With Air Intake

    I does have DoD, just like the 5.7. After getting a loud tick I just swapped everything out for Hellcat (non-DoD) lifters and deleted the whole setup. Hopefully it lasts. A lot of discussion on whether the raised cam position contributes to a lifter oiling issue. Who knows.

    Great motor but the cam/lifter failure issues would stop me from buying another one.

    I know it's an April Fool's thing but they should save themselves the embarrassment and just cancel it.

    2014 GT/CS Canned Tune

    I had the canned Ford Racing tune on my 2021 and honestly it felt great, especially in the midrange. Shaun (AED) wasn't a big fan of their tuning strategy and I've since had custom remote and dyno tunes through him and VMP. Even a remote tune is a much better option since it's setup...

    Had to put our horse down, this evening

    Been there, very sorry to hear that. Once they start to colic it's a never-ending battle usually. Lots of vet bills and sleepless nights.

    Anyone carpenters/woodworkers?

    I did a bunch of cutting boards for Christmas. Mostly woodworking 101 stuff but people love them as gifts.

    Garage Queens

    I get that, but we can usually get the OEM turbos rebuilt for a reasonable cost. Anyway, don't want to derail the thread further. It just seemed like an outrageous amount of money for a turbo repair on one of these cars. Unlike many of the other Fox body models, SVO's haven't really...

    Ouch. I can't understand how that turbo cost you $6k. Owned SVO's since the early 90's so if you need assistance or advice with anything let me know.

    CJ manifold and E85, who has most NA power?

    While I agree head porting (and maybe cams) would be nice, if he's not tracking the car then this seems like an expensive proposition for moderate gains. For the money involved in parts and labor FI seems like a better investment. I eventually made 422whp with a dyno tune, full CJ intake and...

    Tune ?

    And long tubes! Nothing much sounds better then a Fox body with a decent cam and long tube headers. But I'm biased :D

    Buffalo, New York Business Owners Stand Up to Cuomo Lockdown Orders; Chase Out Sheriff & Health Dept

    I wish more law enforcement leaders would stand up against this nonsense and refuse to enforce these "mandates".
