    Is anyone NOT satified with their 4.10 gears?

    I had 4.10's on mine. Awesome acceleration. Saying that, terrible gas mileage. 16 hwy. If I took the the car to work, it burn 1/2 tank of gas a day. If I had to do it all over again, I would have put 3.73's in.

    Ford to report record losses?

    My post from another Bulletin Board. Right now I am so upset with Ford that I will probably never buy another one. My thoughts..... Ford is in serious trouble with all their brands. I want to buy American, I prefer American but Ford is doing a lousy job in keeping me and apparently many...

    Engineers

    Sigh....sounds like you have no sense of humor, which is not uncommon among engineers I have known. Typical New Englander/New Yorker. Where you have to resort to name calling when you disagree w/someone.

    Miata's - Help me!

    My wife had a Miata and I loved to drive it. Nothing can beat it with the top down on a nice day. In Oct 2001, She was crunched by a dump truck which pushed her into oncoming traffic. The car was turned around when she was hit by a minivan doing 55 mph. She was unconscious for 30+ minutes...

    Ford Going Away, what to do now

    Doesn't surprise me a union buyouts. The retirement/health care costs are killing GM and Ford. This is what is happening to American Industry. Defined pension plans are being phased out , each person will be responsible for their own retirement. It has been going on for yrs now. Ford...

    SHELBY PRICE LIST IS HERE!

    Law of supply and demand. That is the way our system works. I used to get upset about it but realize that is why our country is so great. People are free to buy whatever they want as long as they can pay for it and the market will bear the price. I can't afford one but don't hold any...

    No Wonder Ford is Hurting!

    The Ford GT only had a limited run. It was a specialty car. If you don't want one well that is your business. But if I could afford it then the car would be in my garage as we speak. I won't degrade myself to denigrate your intelligence if you wouldn't take one. Doug

    Does the GT500 come with HID lighting?

    I put white face gages on my 97GT to make it look modern as current cars and I thought it looks a lot better. Evidently, other people do also as there are a lot of kits sold. I really like my Lincoln LS but it has the same tired instrument display as it has for years. When a Lexus, BMW, G35...

    Believe what you want. All I reported is what the sales manager told me. Time and the market will tell.....American capitalism at work. The way it should be.

    Does the GT500 come with HID lighting?

    It is not high tech, but it is modern. The same way that hid seems standard on a lot of Nippon cars. The interior of the Nippon cars are way ahead of Ford. The dash and layout of the Ford cars are the same as they were in 1999. I travel to work early in the morning. I notice the Japanese...

    Does the GT500 come with HID lighting?

    It always seems that American car companies are not forward thinking in technology. The Japanese seem to have that cornered. For instance, white face gages are standard on Japanese cars, yet we still have the same gages from 20 yrs ago.
