    The inconclusive conclusion

    Awesome news Si, Been off the forum for a bit and just saw your post... Brother... glad I thought of you when they called me out of the blue... I think that's wack that they call someone who not only didn't order one from them, but don't call the folks like yourself who did order one. Esp...

    Can my speedo be broken?

    Powers... I'm with ya.. I was the same way coming off a 96 Maxima 5spd. Just have to watch it cause 90 feels like 60. Took it out across the desert from CA to AZ... got it up to 130, and it felt like 90 in my old car. This car can get you into trouble fast!!! Enjoy it!

    Any problems with the 2006 Stangs.??

    I've got an early production 06, and I've had the fuel fillup problem just a couple of times (at random gas stations)... end up flipping the nozzle upside down to finish filling up. Maybe 3 fill-ups in the 4000 miles on it. After getting on the gas real hard in a corner and on down a...

    91 octane?

    don't do it... unless you are putting a custom tune on your GT - I wouldn't recommended higher than 87. Never saw if the guy responded, but on another forum a guy was putting 93 (i think.. east coast) in his and the best mileage he could get was like 12-14 mpg. He was stock so I told him to...

    Any So Cal dealers selling under MSRP?

    a little bit of a drive, but worth it I got mine through Fiesta Ford out in Indio. No mark ups over MSRP - tell them you would like to get a little under for the drive out there... that might work.... hehe. Ask for Brian Q. in the Internet dept. 760-772-8000 x406 When I picked mine up...

    we all got kicked out of the thunderbird forum so now I'm here!

    Proper cleaning equipment

    only way to go Here's a link to the best wax around...expensive but worth it. Read through the site. I put it on my 06 for the first time last weekend and it is awesome. Then you just need a california duster to wipe the dust right off. Smooth as glass...

    2006 GT Models

    No TPMS As an owner of an 06 GT - there is no Tire Pressure Mon. System. The only reference I can find for it is the symbol on page 9 of the manual. I'm going to take a wild guess that they wanted to add it this year but didn't have time to get it on the car.

    Stupid n00b questions

    good questions Those are good questions. I dont have answers to most so hopefully others will jump in. I think plan pricing depends on if you know someone who works for ford or if you work for a company that does business with ford. There's a list someplace of companys that can get x-plan...

    ridiculous MSRP markups???

    Keep shopping You said local for you is Pasadena? If your willing to drive a bit to pick it up you should check out Fiesta Ford in Indio, south of Palm springs. I drove 112 miles to get my 06 yesterday. They will do MSRP. And if you point out you will have to drive to get it, you can see if...

    2006 Mustang Shipping Info

    so no order So you didn't really "order" one, you just told your dealer you want one... You can't put a deposit down for them to give you priority? Meaning you tell them what you want... agree on a price, and the get the car for you as soon as the can... If they do that, they should be able...

    ERL doesn't understand model code

    your saying "Tee" "Eight" "Two"... right? Not Eightytwo. Other thing I didn't know until not too long ago is you can speak anytime you want to, don't wait for her to finish speaking... which means it needs to be quite in the room... so don't cough. I can't use my cell phone, connection...

    2006 Mustang Shipping Info

    tracking build There are some ways to track the build... But you will need some info. Not sure if dealers down there are the same as in the states but when I ordered my 06 I got what they call a VOC - vehicle order confirmation, then a few days later I got the dealer to give me a copy of the...

    Waiting On Your 2006 Order?

    Ah but Sanctus... let's not forget that you went to a dealer that in April told me they were already sold out of 06's before the 06 order banks were even open. (the manager later called me and told me the saleman that told me that was of course wrong) That's why I went elsewhere and my mustang...

    Waiting On Your 2006 Order?

    Hey CHCPMAN :cheers: Well - in our case I wouldn't worry to much about that as they work Saturdays too. So if you're thinking old school it would have to be Saturdays and Mondays. But I hope the real case is the AAI folks just love to build Mustangs so their always trying to keep the...
