With up to 500 horsepower under the hood and a slew of technological innovations both inside and out, it's no wonder this year's Mustang is putting a grin on drivers' faces. more Open Secrets from a Ford Dealership: 4 Reasons Drivers Love the 2024 Ford Mustang 1. The Growl American muscle cars are a dying breed. But the Ford Mustang stays the course, becoming one of the few cars in its class to still offer the full-throated growl of a 5.0-liter V8. The Gen-4 Coyote engine offers 468 horsepower in GT trims and a stunning 500 horsepower in Dark Horse trims. Even its little brother, the EcoBoost 3.2-liter engine, has a pleasing and muscular sound that belies its displacement. Regardless of the size, drivers love the sound of the Mustang so much that Ford actually put in a Remote Rev feature for Mustangs with an automatic transmission, allowing drivers to show off to friends and competitors alike without having to get behind the wheel. 2. Manual Means Connection The EcoBoost trim of the Mustang comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission and paddle shifters standard, making it a powerful and playful joy on the road. But stepping up to the GT or Dark Horse trims opens up the option for a 6-speed manual transmission, instantly offering an even more intimate connection to this year's pony car. Ford has continued to innovate even in manual transmission technology. The available TREMEC 6-speed manual has an automatic rev-matching and "no-lift shifting" experience, allowing drivers to change gears without taking their foot off the gas pedal. 3. The Track Abilities Available Integrated Track Apps display gives real-time performance information on either the 13.2 center display or the 12.4-inch console with video-game-like graphics, displaying acceleration statistics, both lateral and longitudinal g-forces, and lap times. It also offers automatic, and countdown starts for more racing fun. 4. Highway Manners Just because the Mustang lets loose on the track doesn't mean it can't behave itself in public. Ford's CoPilot 360 technology helps drivers remain safe and polite by offering lane drift, blind spot and cross-traffic detection, pre-collision assistance with automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control, which can help you keep pace with traffic even in stop-and-go conditions. Auto high-beam headlamps will even dim your bright lights when it detects oncoming headlights, helping you see as much as possible without blinding others on the road. You can read all you want about the 2024 Mustang, but here's one last secret: nothing compares to experiencing it firsthand.

Find out if you need new tires at Jack Madden Ford! Tires are all that stand between your car and the road, so it's important they're in good condition. Here are some signs it might be time to visit the Ford dealership for new tires. Low Tread Depth Low tread compromises traction and increases stopping distances, especially in wet conditions. If you aren't sure whether your tread is too worn, you can measure with a penny. Insert the penny into the tread groove with Lincoln's head facing down. If you can see the top of Honest Abe's head, your tread is too low. more You Can See the Tread Wear Indicators Modern tires feature tread wear indicator bars, which are narrow strips of smooth rubber within the tread grooves. Tread wear indicators on a new tire are hard to see because they are down in the bottom of the grooves. As your tires wear down, the indicator bars appear to rise. Once they are flush with the tire's surface, you've reached the safe tread limit. There Are Cracks or Cuts in Your Sidewall Inspect the sidewall of your tires for cracks, cuts, or grooves that look more than superficial. This kind of damage can weaken your tire, leading to leaks or blowouts. Bulges or Blisters on Your Tire If you see patches that look like a blister bulging out of your tire, it means something has damaged the internal frame, allowing air pressure to reach the outer layers. The bubble of rubber is a weak spot that might pop while you are driving, causing a blowout. Do not drive on blistered tires. Instead, replace them immediately. You Frequently Fill Up Your Tires Healthy tires lose pressure over time. It's normal to add some air from time to time, especially if the temperature has recently plunged. However, if you have to top up those tires over and over, there's a good chance they're leaking. Excessive Vibration While some vibration is normal while you drive, too much shaking or vibration that's out of the ordinary might mean problems with your tires. Anything from uneven tire wear, balance issues, or internal tire damage could lead to a rough ride. Your Tires Are Too Old Rubber deteriorates over time, even if you don't drive much. In most cases, you should replace your tires after six years, no matter how much tread is left. Old tires can fail unexpectedly as they become more brittle.
