Maybe some are. Our neighbor has a 2006 F150 XT with a Triton with ( purchased new 1 owner) 275K miles and all he does is recommend service. Drives it every day these days for errands..

Could never spend that much time in a ford!

So far still enjoying my F150.

There’s. Butt for every seat! Lol.
It’s just built in for me to throw shade at fords. As you may remember, we both own 69 Camaros. Bow tie till die! Truth be told, my half ton isn’t a Chevy either lol.

I owned 2 Chev trucks,I'll still take my F150 over both. And these days, who knows where all of these parts come from

I'll go with the Cayman 987 as my favorite body design on a Porsche, and I don't need the wing either. There's faster, but body wise I love the angle over the rear tires and indent doors. Like how it angles over and tapers to the back.

Dunno where the idea started you don't need to let your engine warm up in the winter? 5-10 minutes depending upon how cold. Even in the summer I might let it run for 2 minutes first.

Nice car but the current (718), especially the GT4 is such a better car. Buddy of mine tracks his regularly, the 'Glen' being his home track.

You don't , just drive it sensibly until up to temp. As for me on really cold days; remote start, pour coffee, drink half a cup and then proceed out to the vehicle

More punch in the 718 video I saw. Wouldn't go with the automatic though.

 

[Dude#1279435]

Short video on YT guy says spray WD40 on engine covers, front, keyholes, battery terminals etc. Never ever have I heard anyone recommend that LOL.

 

[Dude#1279435]

Remember seeing a video with something similar LOL.

BMW N63, a very fun and definitely reliable BMW V8

Holly poop, it's real

Real enough to give ptsd to those that have to work on it

And the vacuum hoses need vacuum hoses. And those vacuum hoses prob need vacuums while we’re at it.

Well have you ever driven a 718, well let me tell ya, you cannot out shift these automatics, they are precise, firm and quick-shifting for a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic with steering-wheel-mounted shift paddles. Driving the GT4RS, its a ZERO to 60 mph in a scant 2.8 seconds with the automatic. You can't touch that with the manual shift. Its that good.

The Porsche PDK's are the best of the best when it comes to automatics.

 

[Dude#1279435]

The Prosche PDK's are the best of the best when it comes to automatics.

Not doubting that, but it's a Porsche so a stick for me.

It’s hard to beat a good automatic for consistency and speed. But you have to admit, there’s really something satisfying about running a shifter through the gate.
