    Break-in period of new 2005 stangs

    Drive about 40, and then blast up to 80 on the expressways....let it roll to 50-60, then blast up to 80 again. Do that a couple times and you'll be done.

    No Wheel Lock Key?

    You know what I noticed? I didn't get a wheel lock key when I bought my car! Did others get theirs? I'm taking my car in tomorrow morning to get the Environmental Protection Package put on, so I'm gonna axe.

    Yes, it's worth it! It's 1000 watts! And those subs kick major bee-hind.

    Best Looking Rims on '05 to Date!!!

    You know what? I had a 2002 Firebird with ground effects before I got this Mustang. Fun car for the most part, but because it was so low, I used to scrape my front end on almost everything. It sucked for that reason. I trained myself to go into every parking lot and driveway slow and at a...

    Best Looking Rims on '05 to Date!!!

    Agreed. It's almost as if those rims are just clashing with the theme of the car, which is RETRO! The upgraded 17" rims fit the car perfectly.

    Doesn't it feel good?

    Right, and just as you were influenced, is as much as we're going to influence others.

    I'll probably just wait for some of the more experienced folks here to tune theirs first before I do mine. I'm a bit hesistant to make a change like that.

    05 SHAKER 500 NOT WORKING !!!

    It appears the major issues are with the 500. I have the 1000, and I've had 2 skips since getting it 4 days ago. It's very sporatic, but for the most part. No real issues. Sounds like this is a pretty real issue.

    Shaker 500/1000 problems

    It IS your job though, is it not? Sorry if you feel your time is being wasted. I work in IT for my job. I know all about time wasting problems, but unfortunately, that's your job. BTW, I've had a couple tracks skip on me too. It's sporatic, but it's happened. I have the Shaker 1000...

    Another great comment....

    Well, I agree this is the best Ford has ever done. There are too many cars to judge how it compares of all-time. But I would think it's way up there for sure.

    Doesn't it feel good?

    Today, I parked my car in the parking lot at work, and I waived to the parking lot attendant, and his eyes popped out. I told him I upgraded from my Firebird (understatement). So then when I left a couple hours later, he stops me and goes, "You know, about 8 different people stopped as they...

    V6 Mustang Question

    The mileage is so similar, you'd be a fool to not get the GT. The GT is the ****nit.

    What do you guys mean by tune? Do you mean tune up? Also, I bought my GT on Sat, and by yesterday I was filling it.
