Before I bought my Mustang, I checked out some new Nissan 370Z's... While I did decide to go Mustang, I have to admit that the 370Z Coupe is one HELL of a buy, for what you all get, if you're looking for a true sporty coupe of the Japanese origin.

I have to consider I get a good discount on Ford products since i worked that. Employee pricing does take a large sum off the price of a car.

I bet! New Mustangs, especially the GT version, aren't cheap! Which is one reason I bought one that was 'gently' used!

I get almost the dealer price minus the delivery charge, and add ons.
One hint, don't buy a car made on the weekend, Friday, and I would say Monday. A Tuesday is a good day.

Mine has been excellent as far as reliability goes! Sometimes I wonder how Ford let this one slip outta the assembly plant!

Re: Tech Talk
My 98 was a good car, the only issues I had I created by my hard driving around corners, welded the bearing together, and they exploded to little bits
When I fixed it ti was like new, and it got totaled because a bunch of drunk Catholics messed up the road.
Loved that car.

Re: Tech Talk
The fan in the bathroom stopped working. I am trying to replace the motor but the ones from home depot come with a different plug. Mine is a 3 port. I'm afraid to buy a new fan and not able to install it.
My unit
The fans that they sell is a 2 port normal house plug.

Re: Tech Talk
If you can get a part number from your fan motor, you might be able to order just the motor & fan. With part number, a Google search should quickly tell you if one is available.
If you can't locate one, you'll probably have to change out the whole unit (housing and all) with a new one.
You've checked that the breaker hasn't tripped?

Re: Tech Talk
You either have to do what Mel suggested, or take the housing out, and replace the whole thing.

Must be a lot of airmiles. Took me and my mom years and years to have enough points for a budget low end blender.Ryanissimo wrote: ↑September 2nd, 2019, 3:59 pm I'll soon have enough Air Miles to get the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+.

At next month's Frankfurt Motor Show, BMW will display a one-off version of the forthcoming third-generation X6 SUV that's been fully coated in Vantablack paint, in which carbon nanotubes are used to create one of the darkest substances on Earth.

Re: Tech Talk
Good luck repairing that BMW X6. I dont think bodyshops will carry that Vantablack paint. Here in Vancouver only 3-4 approved bodyshops can work on Teslas. Customers have to wait over a month for parts.

Re: Tech Talk
I think it would be easy to match up since it's black, and not reflective like it is, a lot like a primer.
The accesss to the paint might be the hard part, especially in limited numbers of vehicles produced.
My thought is that insurance agencies would have that car, i think it would be hit constantly when dark being you can't see the thing.
