[QUOTE="jvandy50, post: 16948127, member: 175114"] I've had little issues with every brand here, but ford by far won the shitty service department award. All they had to do was drive it around the block and know they forgot to plug in the back of the intake sensor, or the cam relearn process. Little stuff. But the splitter, considering I'd sent them the 5 minute video which explains how to do it perfectly...that was my breaking point. Well documented issues and they wanted to say I hit something, as if you couldn't see all the tabs ripped off the bumper only to find a few holes that were perfect (because nothing was ever threaded into them). It was like listening to my 6yo try to lie. Never again. Anyway, you can give the LT4 and tr6060 all the hell you want. Some earlier models had oil pump failures(17-18) and I'm not sure we won't see some newer ones start to go with time and miles. It's a melling pump that allegedly had a bad batch, and katech makes a billet replacement...but it's a job and a half. Many replace when doing a cam(this is what I chose). The manual zl1 will also bog if you try to launch it. These are the only two cons I can think of. C7 z06 is a rocket in auto form, never ridden in a manual. In my short time with the 350, I really developed a disdain for some of the Shelby bejeweled jacket crowd, they couldn't believe a car could go through a quart of oil in 350 miles, nor could there be so many problems. "It's less than 1%" was the common phrase and we now know that was bullshit(in 17-18 models). One guy did this long write up and blog defending it...he had 3 motors in that car before giving up lol. I do still love mustangs, I just hated everything about my time with the 350. [/QUOTE]
