Great SPRING, SUMMER, FALL car.
Terrible WINTER car.
This is a manual. I live on a hill. My parking space is an incline. I must use the Parking Brake. However, under 30 degrees and it's frozen. Cannot be un-frozen manually. You have to wait til the sun warms it up.
FORD says it's not an issue. Just don't use the Parking Brake in the winter. Um...HELLO! Shall I park in my front yard or just let it roll down the hill?
BTW, the one time I did park it without the parking brake - it DID roll down the hill. Into a truck, into my fence, through my gate. You get the pic.
Love the car until 30 degrees.
It's frozen today. 19 degrees overnight and I can't drive. FORD really needs to offe a viable solution.
Car is great looking, fast, sounds good. We've added custom parts to make it look better.
Love it physically.
Hate that darn frozen parking brake.
Guess I'll have to buy another car to drive in the winter.
I tried to move my 06 gt after one below zero day with the parking brake up. the car would barely move (like driving with the brake up) but the brake lever itself was totally floppy with no resistance. its been this way for a day. wut should I do?
