    Active suspension on the 2010?

    Waiting until 2011 is a possibility, as I have chosen not to participate in the recession. I dunno. Would I be stuck with electronic shock absorbers? Game plan (loosely) is to buy a 2009 and put a 500 hp blower on it at some point. If 2009 is the last car without the stupid "smart"...

    Active suspension on the 2010?

    I read a little blurb with few details the other day, said the 2010 will have active suspension. I was considering buying one, but I'm not sure I like the new body so much. Since the car is largely a carry-over from the 2009, I'm leaning toward just buying the current one this fall. If I...

    Another Motor Trend Review of the 2010 Stang... They got a 13.5 quarter this time.

    Dunno if I'll get a 2010 this fall, or just try to get a smoking deal on a 2009. Hmmm.... We'll see.

    Hood swap

    Anybody help me here? Wondering if the GT-500 "power bulge" hood fits on a '05-'09 GT? The wife likes the way they look, I was wondering if they fit with no mods. I don't like the idea of an aftermarket hood, but maybe I'm too affected by the fiberglass junk from the 70's & 80's. Are the...

    Is this worth it before I go back to Iraq?

    I'll play along here. New paint = old problems. Thank you for your service, God bless you and your loved ones. Give 'em HELL over there! :flag:

    Superchargers

    Hmmmm.... I'm not a rich man, but the initial cost is secondary to me. What do I get in the way of value? The 500hp Ford kit looks appealing to me (thinking of buying a new 2009) despite the sticker price. I want the car to perform first, but it also must be driveable for my wife and...

    STUPID A$$ side windows...

    Yeah Shelby, I understand the concept. I had a 66 Mustang for over 20 years, I know what rattle and wind noise is all about. I still maintain that it's a stupid f-ing idea borne of styling excess and unsound engineering. Just put a damned frame around the glass to strenthen the door/window...

    2010 GT getting 400 hp or not?

    Yeah, 2009 it is... Tell me, how did you get that snappy Latin phrase about truth under your name? I'm unable to locate that function in my profile, I settled for putting it in my signature.

    2010 GT getting 400 hp or not?

    I was at a Phoenix dealer on Friday, asked him if the 2010 would get the rumored horsepressure bump. He sez they get the Bullitt motor, 315 to 325 hp. So, anybody else get the word on the new 5.0 motor? Is there still a 400 hp motor in the works for the basic GT for 2010? The dealer has...

    Hah! Littering? Yeah, I lived in Houston for 15 years. I KNOW what litter looks like!:rlaugh: My ex-wife is in Alvin. If you run into her, back up and run into her again! :lol: $500 here in Arizona. The humorous part any locals would get is that the Hassayampa has water in it maybe...

    STUPID A$$ side windows...

    Thanks guys. R One, I run usually Optimas, just put a Diehard Platinum AGM in my Suburban last year. I talked to a very knowledgeable guy (says he) at Sunset Ford this evening. He said the same thing, just close the door. Use the shoe horn trick if needed to get the window to pop back in...

    STUPID A$$ side windows...

    Yeah, good advice. The thing I'm hung up on is the fact my wife will be driving the car. We work 60 miles apart so when she calls me and says "The battery is dead, I'm in the 'hood of Phoenix, it's raining like crazy and I can't close the door" I want to be able to explain to her what she...

    STUPID A$$ side windows...

    Really? Yeah, I kinda tried to push it closed and it felt like something bad was gonna happen. Weather was warm too, so the weatherstrip was soft and pliable. Maybe I should go experiment on some more cas at the dealership.... :D:nice::lol:

    Will 18" tires fit in spare storage?

    I was wondering if one of the regular tires will store properly? First thing I will do if I buy a new GT is s h ! t can the space-saver spare. On all my trucks over the years, I always bought a fifth rim and mounted a fifth tire so I can rotate my spare thru normal usage. Can this be done...

    STUPID A$$ side windows...

    Okay, new guy here with a question that has likely been covered before. With a dead battery, the door will still open as the window pops out from under the weatherstrip. Okay, fine. Now I want to close the door. Now what? How do you get the window back inside the weatherstrip so the...
