    Does Your Mustang Convertible Top Leak?

    The top on my '02 (which I bought a year and a half ago) started out with a small leak, which would cause water to pool in the area where the top folds down into. A few months ago, I noticed the carpet behind the driver's seat was getting wet. After a recent tropical storm, the carpet behind the...

    Car skids, fishtails like crazy on wet pavement

    Thanks for all the help guys, looks like new tires it is. I'll probably get new ones next week. Right now I live in North Florida in an area that's very hilly and is prone to flooding during even moderate rain (though we usually get torrential downpours). In six months I'll be moving further...

    What do you do when someone makes fun of your V6?

    I can't be the only one with this problem. My sister and her boyfriend are unbearable. They never stop talking crap about my car. The two of them take turns and then gang up on me together. According to them, my car's nasty and ugly, a piece of crap, barely 150 hp, and the slowest car ever made...

    Car skids, fishtails like crazy on wet pavement

    I'm not sure how old the tires are because I've only had the car since January. I did find a receipt for a battery in the glove box though and based on the date and mileage listed, I'm guessing the car sat for a while so it's possible that the tires are pretty old. Tires are Nexen N5000s...

    Car skids, fishtails like crazy on wet pavement

    I have a 2002 V6 and I just see myself getting into a major accident with it one of these days. If the ground is even slightly damp, the car skids and fishtails like crazy and is all over the place. I always try to take it easy when it's wet out and always drive carefully, don't speed, and I'm...

    Exhaust Pipe Hanging

    I have a 2002 V6. My exhaust pipe seems to be hanging lower and lower over the past few weeks. I haven't hit anything and I'm pretty much the only person who drives the car. It doesn't seem to be bent at all, but then again I haven't laid under the car at all. It's not scraping on the ground or...

    Hazy brights

    Thanks for the help guys. I'm going to look into replacing the bulbs, that has to be the issue. And thanks for the recommendations too. I'll probably avoid the super bright, non street legal ones just cause I've got cops all over me as it is and the last thing I need to to draw any more...

    Hazy brights

    The brights on my 2002 are so awful and useless that I never even use them, even on the darkest roads. They're super hazy and actually look dimmer than my regular headlights. My headlight covers are in pretty good condition and I used a restoration kit a few months back which cleared them up...
