    Keys hit my knee

    Its sort of a pain in how the key hangs down and bumps your knee all the time - I've had to remove all the other keys and just use a Ford key while driving. Its one of the few things that somehow during design phase.

    hesitation around 2800/3000 rpms

    I didnt take it to the dealer yet - it doesnt happen all the time and I need some more info to have them look at it. I think that bigcat had the right idea in looking at the engine torque mgmt system, though I dont know how that all works - my problem felt like a throttle cut out. One issue is...

    Snow Tires for a GT

    OK, I know its the dead of summer, but was thinking about the winter ahead. Anyone put snows on their GT last winter? Was thinking of the Dunlop Winter Sport M3's - any experience with these? Given a good pair of snows and the traction control, (even w/the 300hp), what would keep this from...

    hesitation around 2800/3000 rpms

    This doesnt sound like a faulty spark plug since there are many of us with the same problem on acceleration. It certainly isnt an octane problem. Our cars run well, except for this hard to figure out hesitation issue. The problems seem to be for most of us somewhat random, and thus hard to...

    Finally Test Drove GT w/stick - WOW

    Silver is definetly easiest to keep clean, but the torch red is simply unbelievable. Thumbs up from everyone else on the road who wishes they having as much fun. I'd go torch red and live it up - after all, you're getting a Mustang GT, not a Buick. And, the 5spd is so easy and fun, there...

    Please Post Your Gas Mileage

    My GT 5sp has 2400 miles - only 2 weeks old! Just took a 1100 mile trip, drove 75-85 much of the way. Avg mpg was 22.6. Not bad.

    hesitation around 2800/3000 rpms

    I also have the 'hesitation' issue - New GT, 2400 miles, 5spd. It's happened 3 times, all the same - hard acceleration in 2nd gear, as you are pushing, the engine just 'misses' - like fuel stops for a millisecond, then continues. It's not consistent but hope someone has an answer that I can...

    GTO or STANG GT Mind Made Up

    Bottom line - the GTO is simply ugly. Its looks like a Chevy Lumina with some typical GM flares and body molding. Sure, HP is great. A car isnt simply a HP race - it's a culmination of beauty and performance. In five years, the Mustang will still look great and the GTO will be on a second or...

    An order question

    Also have 6/20 build date - dealer said about a week. Six weeks doesnt seem normal.
