    Beautiful car. Love how there's no rust and definitely a shame about that white one, hopefully he gets it fixed. Lens y'all found is indeed for a Whelen Slimlighter. Know because I have the one that fell out of my dash in the garage, same lens. 3 evoc courses LOL, kinda proved my point though when he said "I can spin this thing around" and "the grip they have in the DRY weather is just insane" and at 33:09 proceeded to even prove that wrong. My Zeon's would've hooked there, maybe some y'all just like sliding these cars around with minimal effort and dropping a grand on tires every 20k miles lmao. Cooper and Continental both offer superior tires for these cars at this point. RSA's have a 260 treadwear rating whereas my Coopers are 500. That's just about DOUBLE the lifespan of the RSA for $50-$75 less a tire as well as superior traction & temperature ratings. Drove these cars with RSA's for 10 years, and yes I DO know how to drive these cars. Just got tired of subpar performance and the tires only lasting 20k miles. Went to the Coopers and will never go back. Just my experience. Y'all made a great video. Can't wait for the next one!

Car runs like a champion. But after seeing and hearing this 3.55 car it makes me want to ditch the 2.73s. But I know I’d get 12mpg with 3.55s with my right foot.

    This is 1 of only a few Ford's that I would own. They are just so easy to work on.... Parts are everywhere and cheap. They are proven reliable when with questionable maintenance. And I would call them fast..... But for a full size car with all the room in the world and a trunk you can live in..... It's quick enough. Oh and gas mileage really ain't that bad. I would love to see a new mustang gt motor swap in one of these! Prob would be even better gas mileage along with 4x the hp

    @Chad_P7B 11 месяцев назад +1

    So, don’t know if it’s been mentioned yet, but the flex fuel emblem wasn’t standard till 09, so the fact that an 08 or older would have said emblem, was because 1, the fascia was from a newer donor car; or 2, someone specifically went out of the way after the fact to get one and put one on. 06-08 did not have an option to order that way.
    The green hoses were at one point oem, NOT specifically newer models, but apparently “updated”; but I’ve only seen a handful out of hundreds, if not thousands of newer Vic’s, that did have the green ones. I’ve seen them with the motorcraft tag on them still. So whoever made them to be rebranded by motorcraft was a thing. I THINK a buddy in north jersey scored a set of green ones.
    The alternators are actually made by Mitsubishi if you know a thing or two and can take one apart. Same bud has taken a brand new one apart and all throughout the components have a Mitsubishi logo on them.
    As far as pedal adjustment/tc, standard is nada. Both were options. I’ve seen plenty of plain Jane cheap as they come 2011’s, means nothing. It’s like saying “oh all 2010’s got heated mirrors” okay, then why didn’t my 2011 have them? If it was standard, then from then on the rest of the model years would have it too.
    Great way to bust the tabs on your clean obsolete cluster lens though, Pierce.

    • @LoveWhatYouDrive
      @LoveWhatYouDrive  7 месяцев назад +1

      Flex fuel refers to a gasoline-based fuel that does not solely consist of gasoline, but instead a mixture of gasoline and another fuel - most commonly ethanol. Cars, trucks and SUVs with engines that accept blended fuels are commonly referred to as flex fuel vehicles.
      The gas/ethanol mixture is known as E85, and according to the U.S. Department of Energy, there are more than 4,200 public E85 stations in 44 states across the country. For E85 fuel, ethanol amounts to 51% to 83% of the blend, depending on the time of year and geography. In this context, you can think of pure gasoline as E0. Flex fuel vehicles can run any mix of these blends up to E85.
