    Interior Fan Loud As Hell! Please Help!

    I own a 2011 Mustang GT with about 51,500. I haven't had any real issues until this morning. While driving, a terrible whine/whistling started coming from the passenger side of my car. I determined the sound was coming from the interior fan motor located under the glove box. It's really...

    06 mustang gt

    No, there has not been a change in the shifter from 05 - 06. The poster you are referring to was speaking of the shifters/trannies from the 99-04 Mustangs. On a side note, even though the shifter does feel much more crisp than previous Mustang models, I still find myself wanting an...

    Radar/Laser Detectors?

    Just to be fair (I probably should have included this in my comparison post), Escort and Valentine BOTH offer software upgrades, not just Valentine.

    Radar/Laser Detectors?

    It's more than questionable... laser detection is 99.9% useless. Laser is light. Light = instant. Instant + detector = ticket notifier. Laser + passive countermeasures + laser jammer = immunity until you are are 0 - 75 ft from the laser gun. As for the doubt on how far away a cop can clock...

    Radar/Laser Detectors?

    To help you out in your decision, I'll tell you some facts about the Valentine 1 and the Escort Passport 8500 X50. You can also double check my statements with the links I provided to you in my previous post. The V1 and Escort are pretty evenly matched. Both have excellent front/rear RADAR...

    Radar/Laser Detectors?

    I will repost my information on Ticket Prevention again. I too hope people will begin to use the search button more often. It is becoming quite annoying to have to repost this information every week or so. Please read the following thoroughly for a concise, NEARLY bulletproof, ticket...

    Why are you being fired, if I may ask?

    Doing 58 in a 40

    Too bad you got nailed. Let this be a lesson to you in ticket prevention - you NEED to protect yourself. I posted a thread on ticket prevention awhile back. You could benefit from the information in that thread, so I rwill repost it here. Please read this thoroughly if you are serious about...

    $5/gallon

    Let's not forget that most European countries are not Capitalist, they're Socialist. Places like Germany have heavy taxes tacked onto their gas prices. Only the upper middle class and the wealthy can afford to own cars like an '05 Mustang GT in Germany.

    Another Gt Goes Down - Defective Heads!!!

    I completely agree, Alec. Many people on this forum just don't understand that a car company is a BUSINESS. Big business, at that. It is here to make money, and like every other big business in America, it will do whatever it can to protect its assets. Their criteria for automotive recalls...

    $5/gallon

    What really gets my gander up is how in Venezuela they pay $0.16 a gallon, in Kuwait they pay $0.68 a gallon, in Caracas they pay $0.12 a gallon, etc. It costs OPEC about $4.00 to produce a barrel of oil, yet we are being charged $70 a barrel.

    Another Gt Goes Down - Defective Heads!!!

    I may not agreee with an entire buyback, and I too think that may be asking for a little too much, but I think he deserves a new motor. Just replacing the heads is a joke. God knows what other damage has been done. My comprehension level is perfectly fine. You denounce lawyers, yet when you...

    Another Gt Goes Down - Defective Heads!!!

    That's a real moronic thing to say. The man got a car with defective heads. He may have to sue, and if he wins, it could set a precedent for everyone else who has a problem with the GT's heads, INCLUDING YOU. Who would YOU call if Ford refused to cover your defective heads and replace your motor...

    Passport SR7??

    Don't forget to purchase laser jammers and VEIL!! Laser detection is useless. You need to be able to jame/reduce their clocking distance. I'd go with the Blinder Extreme if you need a good laser jammer. And no, they are not illegal, unless you live in VA, CA, or CO.

    05gt vs 350z

    I think the answer is quite obvious, 619pony - the Mustang had a sub-par driver while the Z had a competent driver. I learned just how much a difference a good driver can make when I was at the Ford & Mustang Showdown at Englishtown Raceway last weekend. There was another '05 Mustang GT there...

    Modding Your '05 In California is AGAINST THE LAW! Anti-Masculinist Facists!

    Here's the link from the SVT Performance forums where I first picked up on the law: California Cracks Down On Modified Cars Read the thread. Many on that forum are worried about the law, and svtperformance has a helluva lot more knowledgable people than those on Stangnet.com. Not intended as...

    Modding Your '05 In California is AGAINST THE LAW! Anti-Masculinist Facists!

    Yeah, sure it is. We'll see what you think of it when a cop stops you for "loud" exhaust, pops your hood, then impounds your car for an aftermarket intake or underdrive pulleys. How moronic of you to state that my post is "nonsense." Did you read Jenn05stang's post? She lives in CA and is...

    Modding Your '05 In California is AGAINST THE LAW! Anti-Masculinist Facists!

    Hey buddy, I was just trying make people aware of a law I (and most other car enthusiasts) don't agree with. How in the HELL is posting to TWO Mustang forums considered posting "propoganda??" Hell, I picked up on this law from someone else's post on svtperformance.com! I can't get over this...

    Modding Your '05 In California is AGAINST THE LAW! Anti-Masculinist Facists!

    Yup, you heard right. Your car can be impounded and auctioned off for State profit if you're caught with a modified car in California. No wonder there are so many car chases in CA. If I knew some doughtnut chomper (and my Uncle is an Inspector in NY, I don't hate cops) was going to impound...

    Bank Teller Checks Out My '05 GT, Then Turns Nasty

    Yeah, I could have been nastier... but then again, this whale knows my bank account number, my ssn, all that fun stuff. I'll let the long arm of the law do the talking when she gets pulled over for doing 90 in a 65.
