2022 Eruption Green arrival!

Huh? The head gasket blew on your new GT-500 after only 148 miles? More details would be nice.

 

[TFStang]

What in the world?!!!

Sorry to hear, but please keep us posted as to what the heck happened. This is horrible!

They did shut down the Niche Line. Sharing the joy of going out with a bang?

Came in to say congrats and then saw the head gasket post. Very sorry to hear.
At least warranty.
I have 2500mi on my ‘22 and it’s been great. When I was at the plan there was a heritage car who dropped a valve and was getting an engine replacement.
Mass production but I’ve always thought if it’s a defect it’ll likely show early.
Good luck getting back asap.

I don't own a 2020+ GT500, but I do follow issue threads, & it seems that there are a lot of " stuff " going wrong with brand new cars..

Yup, imagine that.

Total lack of continuity between production, supply chain, part revisions, engineering, process changes, locations, material changes, design, distribution, WIP, workforce, etc.

What could possibly go wrong?

FJB, **** anthony fauci, **** all the globalists.

And one of the employees at the local Ford dealership made the same exact comment a couple months ago.

These issues are not isolated to automotive industry. Generally speaking, everything is ****ed-up. It's slowly getting better, but bidens regime and the globalists are trying their God damnedest to keep it ****ed-up.

It’s like the economy has blood clots…..

I hope it a quick fix and nothing really serious!!

Turns out it was a valve cover gasket that was not installed properly. All fixed and steam cleaned the bottom of the car etc. Back on the road tonight. All good!

That could possibly be the HOTTEST color ive ever seen! Reminds me of an old Shelby AC Cobra. U picked the very best color combo hands down!

That's great that a major issue turned out to be a minor issue.

Awesome result.
And I just picked up some CFTP wheels, so if you really want that green and red to pop, these will be off the car in the next month and for sale. They were the nicest set of wheels I’ve had yet.
Enjoy that ride man.

Your EG GT-500 is stunning. Those wheels do go well with that paint.

 

[TFStang]

Bimini…. Your car looks absolutely bonkers with those wheels! Wow!
