I just wanted to say thank you for listening to your fans. It was pretty much unanimous that we ALL wanted a lot more of these "What it's like to live with" videos, and you've been delivering in spades. You're awesome, Miles.

[@MilesPerHr]

Thank you for the support and feedback! I'm definitely getting the message and there are many more 'day in the life' videos on the way.

I used to be worried about that Mustang crashing stigma being attached to me, but then found out everyone that knows me couldn't even imagine me driving in such a way that my car could spiral out of control. Maybe it's from 99% of my time driving in my life has been driving a V8-powered vehicle (even if not a sports car).

[@Memento_Mori]

Too many people think they can't outdrive the car but forget that they're just outdriving themselves. There's a measure of respect you have to have for the machine and your own abilities before pushing things to their limits. You're good.

[@livinglife3230]

I never been a Ford person, but the Dark Horse was almost my 1st one. Great Video!

[@jimthompson717]

I had a 2019 GT performance pack 1. The active exhaust was key to keeping the neighbors slightly less p'd off. I loved it , and am seriously considering the s650. However, it really works for me, only as a second car.

[@johnbenischeck9812]

Loved the video! Great to see (and HEAR) you shifting into 2nd at 4200 rpm and into 3rd at 4700 rpm.(Obviously, that's why you're getting 11mpg - LOL - it's worth every penny!)

Good job. Not too many people know how to drive a manual correctly

[@whotf888]

"What it's like to live with..." videos I think are SOME OF THE BEST car reviews on KZbin right now. You're killing it Miles, keep it up! By the way, the only thing I actually dislike about this car is the fact Ford made everything electronic. A/C controls? In a menu. Parking brake? Electronic. It's the most annoying trend in the entire industry. Then to cut even more corners, and I'm talking about a lot of manufacturers here as well, they just stick 2 tablets on top of the dashboard as if amenities and gauges are simply an afterthought. It annoys me very much, especially in BMW's and Merc's.

Awesome review. Thank you brother. I really want one now. ❤

[@sentino68]

Pretty funny. I see the same features missing here that I wish my 19 GT had. Trunk fully opening when pressing the release. Adaptive cruise control and remote start. I get the last two are because of the 6 speed manual. But I can imagine that Ford would have sensors in place to allow those features to work when allowable or safe.

[@jackr6896]

Nice review. I'd be interested in a Mustang GT w/o the magneride suspension (because I don't need the performance pack) and how the ride quality performs with the A/T.

[@Dangerous_Drivers_of_CA]

The Getrag MT-82 is still garbage and is a cost saver Ford was not willing to risk in the Dark Horse or Mach1. Both of those models get a Tremec transmission. In short if you have a problem with the MT-82 Ford will blame you!

[@billymania11]

Not really, just get a shift kit. Several are available.

[@Dangerous_Drivers_of_CA]

@@billymania11 An aftermarket shifter helps, but does not fix the issue. To solve the problem, you need a built trans or swap to Tremec. Doing either one will void your warranty. IMO, The MT-82 should only be in a light duty truck or SUVs not a muscle/sports car.

[@billymania11]

Don't agree. You're making a mountain out of a molehill.@@Dangerous_Drivers_of_CA

[@Dangerous_Drivers_of_CA]

@@billymania11 If you had experienced what I had, I'm sure you would agree. Just google "MT-82 problems", CJ Pony is a top result and highlights the issue very well. I'm sure at least 51% of the MT-82s are fine, but a huge percentage are flawed. I've driven stick my whole life without an issue like this. My 2023 GT 6 speed would grind or lock out only going from 2nd to 3rd gear at about 4k-4.5k RPM with about 2/3 throttle. Every other gear shift combination and RPM was flawless. Ford techs could not duplicate it and said it was me speed shifting. Ultimately I spoke with the owner of the dealership and I traded my 2023 6 speed for a 2024 with a 10 speed perf pack model. BEWARE of the MT-82!

Is the noise still partially artificial from a speaker? My 2018 mustang has this: but to disable the microphone you gotta pull down the rear seat headliner and disconnect it. Noticeably quieter.
