Well, it's not a mid life crisis, but here's how things work. Married 35 years, took a look at my wife one day and said, "Honey, 35 years ago, we had a cheap apartment, a cheap car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10 inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep every night with a hot 25...

One thing I have learned is that there isn’t a lot of aftermarket towing mirrors, nor does there seem to be much interest in developing a good towing mirror for the ST. With the introduction of the 2007 V8, that might change. What is available seems to provide inconsistent result to the...

I have been out and about getting estimates on flushing the transmission of 2005 ST that has less than 11,000 miles and replacing the fluid with a synthetic. The estimates range from $289 up to over $400. A local shop quoted $290, but that was not for a complete flush. They told me Ford...

Hi, This is my first visit and post. I stumbled upon this site while researching ways to increase the horsepower to my 2005 ST. We recently purchased a 24’ Gulf Stream hard side travel trailer (3900 lb curb weight) and are heading west next month for a 2-month gaunt. It has an...
