After owning a 2004 Z06/Z16 for 7 years, I think they are one of the best bang-for-buck cars ever. I never got the column lock problem. I sold mine for a 2009 Z06, which is a fantastic car, but I still miss my C5 Z16.
I have a 2023 Bronco Outerbanks with the Sasquatch for over a year now and 12,000 miles. Zero issues been bulletproof! fit and finishes is phenomenal. First Ford I’ve ever owned and I am extremely impressed. Social media haters are mostly jeep owners putting down the bronco because the bronco is a superior product to the jeep which has the worst quality ratings in the industry.
@@NavsGarage Gotcha! She sounds good man, nice roar but not too loud 💯 Do ya thang but drive safe out there homie. Sometimes a good neutral rev will impress instead of gettin on it 😉🚔🙏❤️☮️
@@jesusfreak316 Yah I sold the mustang about 9 months ago. But I want to get a Shelby within the next 2 years or a supercar. I miss the sound for sure.
I don’t want to touch a single thing on any of these new vehicles. Doing so seems to activate a self destruct sequence in the computer. I remember a door computer going bad on a 2000 VW Beetle with the 1.8L turbo. The car started freaking out and while we were limping it to VW, the retractable spoiler kept going up and down. What does that have to do with a door computer?
Do you know if there are any big issuws on the 2024, 2025 Broncos. Really hope they have worked the issues out by now. Im holding off because i want to know first.
I grew up driving a manual and engine braking. It is just natural. I even do it now with my paddle shifters (2012 TL and 2018 Q7). Neither engine nor transmission has complained about it. At almost 200K on the Acura and almost 100K on the Audi.
Yah engine breaking should be natural and definitely is to me. Especially since I also ride motorcycles I don’t even think about it. Thanks for watching!
FM engine helps but the rear mounted transaxle makes a big difference too. You have to pay lot of money for a GTD if you want that setup with a Mustang ;)
@@NavsGarage My point is it's one of the biggest differentiating features that Ford highlights on the Mumtimatic built Mustang GTD. Or you can get a $20k Corvette that is also a V8 transaxle, definitely the cheapest transaxle car that has modern performance. Let me know if you want to learn more about transaxle cars historic and modern, happy to fill you in
Honestly it could have used more flushing....especially if you're planning on keeping the car. That brown was bad and there's still some really bad coloring in that last one. Yeah you could see through it but 3 more gallons would have been a much better choice for the longevity of your system.
I disagree. Maybe I could have done one more but it isn’t going to change much as long as I maintain it and flush the coolant on time. With timely coolant changes it will flush itself clean. I honestly think 3 more gallons and it would still be a little brown.
@@NavsGarage - green coolant that's brown happens how? Rust and corrosion. SO flushing more water through the system would remove more of the contaminants. It's certainly NOT going to turn it green again so yeah, it would still be brown but it'll be far less brown and would have helped your system more than leaving in the old, oxidized coolant. But you're right, more frequent cooling flushes will definitely be better than waiting longer.
You have something that you clearly do not appreciate or understand. Pass it on to the correct owner. "It's still just a corvette" was your statement in a response. That is exactly what the Porches guys say at the track after they get hammered by my 20yr old z06
The corvette is a great car. Most corvette owners aren’t. It’s not a Ferrari and people treat them like they are the rarest things ever. I care for my car love them in fact but I don’t go around acting like it’s end all be all. It’s just a corvette. That’s what I meant by that. But my car is for sale.
I see what you mean but no Lexus means no winter car or daily. Miata is going to be my track car. The others I enjoy but the but bronco will make sense in the future and corvette well it’s the first car I’d sell. It will make sense in time.
I own 4 cars I use a 2015 GMC as a daily the 1993 wrangler I rarely use it I am thinking of selling it the 2015 Ram 1500 its a good car but I use it to pull heavy things I use it as a heavy duty vehicle then the Chevy Silverado 2013 I use it as an off-road
Throw an A&A supercharger kit on it and itll be around 600rwhp and you may forget about the GT350. Lol JK Ford actually did a really good job on that car and congrats on the Z. Ive thought about selling mine several times and then I drive and quickly change my mind. Lol
Yah I have had my car for a few months and I think I will sell it. It is a great car but not for me at this time in my life. And the gt350 is my next goal but probably not for a year or two.
I had a similar experience with a motorcycle - bought a mid 2000 single cylinder supermoto where people praised it for being „raw“ and noisy. Loved it at first but not knowing which noises are normal and which aren’t really got to me after some time and I lost all the fun riding it. I think the kinds of vehicles are for people who either can work on engines or don’t care when they have to tow them to a shop and pay a bunch for repairs eventually
I agree with your last statement. These cars in simple to work on and reliable. But unless you want to work on it yourself or have money (which these cars are cheap so probably not) it’s not too fun.
A lot of this just sounds like things from your own personal opinion and it would have been nice for you to say that. Unrelated, the amount of times you called the car raw makes it sound like a steak. Saying "this car is not a good car for a saturday drive" or "this is not an old man car" is crazy to me because I really dont think there is any grounds for you to say that. It's a fun car and just because you're old doesnt mean you have to retire and get a corvette or something. People like differeny things and I think if you review another car you should stick to a review of the car itself. Stick to the specs. Like the rust on an NA. Thats important to know. From a miata owner
I wouldn’t say this is my opinion, some yes of course. But the Miata’s makes noises and uncomfortable I don’t understand your point. I love it for that, like I said, but I get people telling me that’s the reason they hate the Miata. I bring up retirement because a lot of older people bought these cars, obviously if you like the car buy it. But it’s not a let’s go take the roadster on a day trip for most people. As I stated in the video a z3 or even a nb is a better option. Specs don’t tell the full story, I’ve linked my buyers guide if someone wants specs. But as a na owner I’d like to know you do you or do you not agree. Because as an owner this is something I wanted to point out.
