    Where to cruise in San Antonio?

    The only place I know of is Biffs on Fridays. But, it is a young crowd that cares more about gossip and such than about Mustangs. If you find somewhere, let us know.

    gears and the automatic

    No, I've never run it, though I'd like to. Not having a helmet has kept me away, honestly. Me and a few friends are planning a trip out there some Wednesday to just watch, though. If you're going to get gears installed locally, let me know...I might be able to hook you up with the guy that...

    gears and the automatic

    I had 4.10's in my '04 and now have 3.73's in my '06. The 4.10s certainly gave better acceleration but the highway RPMs were too high for my taste. Granted, it was in a 4 speed and not our new 5 speed, but it was still high enough to leave a bad taste in my mouth. The 3.73's gave a decent...

    Anybody know how to get rid of the seatbelt safety chime???

    Hey, if someone doesn't want to wear their seatbelt, I say don't wear it. Really, when they are involved in an accident and die, they are helping to remove the gene for stupidity from the gene pool. :shrug:

    New Grill and A Poll..

    I think that grill looks great! I wouldn't have thought I'd have liked it, but it's pretty sweet. I could live without the yellow fogs though. Overall, great idea!

    'Stang in Severe Winter Weather?

    I just found out I'm relocating to Montana this coming February. Anyone run an 05+ GT in Montana type winter weather? Just curious what to expect/what I'll need. Thanks in advance.

    Allow me to re-reintroduce myself

    Hey, all. I've been around this forum for many years, but rarely post. I think I'm going to take a bit of a more active role on this forum since I really enjoy it. So, about me and my ride: I started with a black '98 GT manual and did very few mods to it. I wanted to, but money was always...

    Looking to install 4.10's

    I don't think going from 3.55's to 3.73's would be worth the money at all. I'd say you'd need at least two jumps to make it worth the amount paid...i.e. 3.73's for autos and 4.10's for manuals. My .$02. You can probably get away with 4.10's if you have some REALLY good traction (slicks...

    Local Ford Stumped

    One of the members on another forum I frequent had a similar vibration issue at speed. His turned out to be a problem with the 2 piece driveshaft. His was replaced and he's had no problems since. Something to consider...

    Noisey Gears???

    I was under the impression that autos all came with 3.31's and manuals got the 3.55's. I also had the same issue as you when I went to 3.73's. I put in Motive gears, then paid a fortune to have them replaced with FRPP gears only to have the exact same issue. Finally, I had the shims...

    TripTunes

    Does anyone have the TripTunes addition to the 05+ head unit? I'm thinking of picking one up but my local dealer wants $100 to install the friggin' thing. I'm not down with that. How hard is it to install? I have zero car stereo knowledge, so think of it as a 10 year old installing...

    Rant: American Racing Shelby Razor

    Do you have any better pictures of those wheels on your ride? I have a Tungsten '06 and want to know how close the grey of the Shelby is to the car.

    Gear (I know... another thread)

    I went with FRRP 4.10's and they're great. However, you may want to go ahead and pick up a bearing just to be safe. With mine, the bearing refused to come off the old one and got damaged. I had to wait several hours for a local auto parts store to deliver a new bearing. Just to be safe, get...

    4.6 Fuel mileage?

    My drive is 50/50 between highway and city. I've been tracking the '04 since I got it an have averaged around 20.5 mpg.

    Suspension ?s

    So did you guys have to change your shocks with either of the Eibach kits? If not, does it decrease shock life expectancy? Also, what about an alignment? Required, or not?

    Suspension ?s

    Alright, all...my first technical question(s) on here with the '04. First off, my car is my daily driver & I put over 60 miles on it each day. That being said, I don't want to lose too much of the ride comfort that it has. My last car could handle like nobody's business, but the ride got...
