My year of GAS GUZZLING Shelby Ford Mustang ownership has been a FAIL! Time to FIX or SELL

I see ridge has found a way to capitalize on their waste material from their wallet production.

I continue to appreciate your dedication to depreciation

Sounds like Tyler preordered a 2023 Corvette C8 Z06 based on the ending. It's the only car that I hear car youtubers all clambering for with no back seat and rear engine specifically for next year.

Boy, to be in the position to choose to keep 2 Shelbys! Seeing as my car collection is mostly 1/64 and easily fits in 3 large boxes, I'm feeling just slightly envious. That's why I like your videos so much, the vicarious experience of owning vehicles I will never have the money to buy. I, for one enjoy your adventures quite a lot.

I say don't give up on the vintage racing thing and don't modify the Hertz Mustang to make it less of a track car. Keep it true to its heritage! You'll find time eventually and in the mean time, maintenance to keep it in good shape is just part of the price of admission.

It may depreciate over the next 5-8 yrs but the long run will pay huge, you got yourself an excellent spec Shelby, keep her!

When you go to the salvage yard for the Bronco sway bar, remember to get the cross member it mounts to. It looks like the cross member was removed for those towing mounts. You might want to consider getting the rear sway bars for this too. The rear is a more simple bolt on. This Twin Traction Beam front end does not handle well at all without the front sway bar. Good luck, and thanks for the video

I've had these Ford's for years. On the Bronco I would change the I-Beam Axle pivot bushings. They are the center bushings on those front beams. They are a rubber bushing mounted in a steel casing. Rubber gets soft over time and these get overlooked. It will cause the axles to wander in and out especially at speed. Also service your lockouts and don't drive with them locked in if you don't need 4-wheel drive. If they're locked in you'll be rotating that whole front axle assembly when it doesn't need to be turning lots of wear and tear and increased fuel usage.

Your Bronco having the weird low vibration at highway speeds, was simply because you had your hubs locked!! It was very clear the whole video, the hubs were in lock position. Its not safe for the hubs to be locked, while driving that fast

EDIT: I'm mostly referring to the previous video with his new Bronco. (When he got it in California). This comment didn't get noticed on that video, so I just tried again on the next bronco video. His previous video is where you hear him mention the odd vibration from hubs/bearing. And that whole video, you can see the hubs locked. I should have been more specific lol. My bad guys

Hoovie, “these Ford’s are so problematic”

Also Hoovie, “I’ll buy another BMW”

[MikeHarris]

Wizard with the OJ joke on the lift, that cracked me up!!! That was freaking gold there!!!

[stephen]

18:50 Love those 80mph speed limit b-roads!

Also, I don’t see this car dropping to half of msrp unless it has a salvage title and/or 100k miles. I’d love a recent GT350, but prices haven’t dropped on those.

[anunpopularstance]

Three words for the Hertz...Centerforce Dual Friction. Best clutch set up I've found for steet ability yet still trackable.

[seekandrestore]

That Bronco is a Twin Torsion Beam (TTB) suspension. Check the pivot bushings where the beams connect to the frame. That will cause them to wander and seem vague.

[Smileydudekxy]

The wizard made me laugh with his “if the lift doesn’t fit we must acquit” joke 🤣🤣🤣

[AaronSmith-kryf]

Dude transferred to a new location at my job. Been parking next to this MINT 1993ish to 1996ish Bronco. Its a light blue metallic/silver sides two tone combo, just a stunning looking truck. Been hoping to run into who owns that truck, cause it is just so freaking minty fresh. Yet they drive it to work, even when its pouring rain, the water just beads off it.

[brycekelly]

That GT500 would be a dream car for me, I'm glad you got it and were able to show it off so I could realize this.

[BeatleDustino]

C8 Z06? We had one delivered to our dealership the other day. When the driver fired it up it really caught my attention. So much so the my boss was asking me a question and caught me staring out the window at it.

[jeffretey]

If I were you’d I’d sell both Shelby’s. Sell the Hertz Group B as is. If you make it a hybrid of street and track it won’t appeal to either group so you’ll lose money and delay the sale. Sell it as the wonderful track car that it is!

[ericmiller]

Love the Bronco. Had a 96 and I regret selling it. It was a florida truck.
I had to do the oil pan gasket also but I just slid the old one out around the pan and put the new one on the same way. Took about an hour. Didn't have to mess with exhaust or jacking the motor.
