Now that you mention it, my great aunt lived on a ranch near LA and had this crazy story no one took seriously... about a "spaceship car" that mysteriously appeared in their barn one night, sometime in 1970. She said it was sleek and shiny, like it was brand new, but they couldn't find a way to...
It's really frustrating, but in the US the entire system (manufacturers, transporters, and dealers) for managing customer-ordered vehicles is still in the stone age. With the technology and manufacturing logistics we have (or should have) now, I see no good reason why a customer can't place an...
Do the non-GT models have a similar power reduction after ~5 seconds, or do they maintain full power (or nearly full power) for a longer time? Specifically, does anyone know if the non-GT models actually make more effective power than a GT, once the GT pulls power back at higher speeds (80-100)?
As far as operating the doors, Teslas have some...interesting design choices. This crash was reported to be a Tesla Model S, and based on what I've found online, the front inside door handle, while normally working electrically, has a cable backup that should open the door if power is cut...
With the (regular) Mustangs, Ford skimps on the tires as well. The Mustang GT comes with 235/50 Pirelli all-seasons as standard. And it's not even Pirelli's best all-season, the P Zero Nero that Ford uses is a 10-year-old design. 235/50 touring tires don't do the Mustang GT justice. IMHO the...
It seems to me that US domestic car manufacturers and dealers, for the most part, are just not interested in, or even equipped for, selling, tracking, or delivering customer-ordered cars. The whole system is designed to sell inventory off the dealer lot. This article is a few years old, but it...
I don't know about the Mach-E, but on my '18 Mustang GT it's common (and apparently intentional) for the HVAC to switch from fresh air to recirc, or vice versa, seemingly at random. I think the manual says something about humidity control.
As a technicality, there are a few spots in Texas with a speed limit of 80 or 85. (The only 85 mph location is a specific portion of a toll road south of Austin.)
