    Mustang Road Trip!

    Well, since I drove 1000 miles to get my car... I took it on a 1000 mile road trip (San Antonio, TX - Phoenix, AZ) when it had less than 50 miles on the odometer! :rlaugh: It was a good trip, especially on a road as open as I-10 (really open in Texas especially). The problem was trying...

    Car Stereo

    I have the Alpine CDA-9847 and it is a sweet deck with tons of nice features, and has a nice price to match: $200 or so. Plus, it is iPod ready if that matters to you. It has the option of four colors (red, blue, green, and amber) and at first I didn't think too much of that. But with MyColor...

    Stupid Windshield Replacement Question...

    OK, I feel like a dunce asking this... But 4000 miles into having my car, a small rock got kicked up by wind or some other driver... not sure from where. But I do know that it smaked into my windshield and I now have a 3/4" or so little "star" in my winshield now. :fuss: After only 4000...

    2000 vs 2005 V6 (makin sure)

    Your 05 V6 has about a 20 hp advantage (210 vs 190) and a 15 ft-lb torque advantage (240 vs 225). I'm not sure about weight... but if it's close like some have stated, you should win... if not by too much. Either car will a blast to drive anyway... :shrug:

    sunroof/ moonroof on the '05?

    I have a moonroof on my '05 GT and am very pleased with it. It is by Classic Soft Trim. My dealer arranged for the install for me; when I went to pick up my beast, the moonroof was already installed and ready to go. It was $789 installed. The install was exceedingly high quality... prett...

    Spanked a Acura RSX Type S (how much HP?)

    Can't always underestimate the four-bangers... In my only "race" I've had in my GT I came up against a modded RSX Type S. I could tell he had mods because of the MSD sticker :rlaugh: on his rear winshield, plus his muffler made a sound like when one... never mind, I'll just let you figure...

    Stupid n00b questions

    Greetings! 06GT4me hit it on the head :stupid: If you order a GT, you may get a break of $500, maybe $1000 off sticker. Or if you have access to X-Plan and can find a dealer who'll take it on the Mustang GT... that's sweet! (Good luck :bang: ) But if you're buying one off the lot...

    1/4 Mile times: Auto or Stick

    From what I've heard... it takes a really good driver in a manual to beat the auto. The auto is capable of shifting quickly, quicker than most drivers of manuals can. So I guess there isn't much of a difference between a well-driven stick and an auto... however, driven well enough, I'd bet...

    After five months of waiting, I got mt GT!

    Bucks! Bear in mind my car has only two options - Wheel Locks and IUP - so it would be one of the less expensive ones anyway. That said, my car was right around $23,860. It's my understanding that the GTs have had a $600 increase in price :( since my order (January 2005), so bear that in...

    Eclipse vs. Mustang

    Get what you want... Interesting thread... it's been said that in situations like these, the hunt is just as much fun as the kill. I had seen ads for the 2006 Eclipse but never saw one on the road until this week and I must say it impressed me as well. The car looks a lot better in...

    5-20w oil? what do you think?

    Greets- I too must join the bandwagon suggesting the use of the recommended 5w-20. You want hot... come viist me in 117-degree Phoenix, Arizona! :shock: I asked the "5w-20 question" to a buddy of mine who's a mechanic, and asked if going to a higher weight might be worthwhile given the...
