    4:10 gears a bit tall?

    Anybody who tells you 4.10 is too much gear has probably never driven a 4.6. Suits these motors just right.

    2010 stang in car and driver!

    It's just what you would expect from a refreshening, barely any different. The s197 already looks great so all you can really do is add the hips and maybe a slightly different grill. The big deal for this car though is what it's going to have under the hood. If it's got more cubes...

    2005 GT vs. 2006-2008?

    Some don't like buying 1st model year cars just in case something major is discovered that first year. Aside from a few minor issues mentioned above nothing big went down for the 05. Just watch out for the dreaded spark plug change which is a problem for the 06's and up too. My car's got...

    STEEDA Alum. driveshaft - anyone?, anyone?

    Your suspension is fine with the spydershaft and I don't see what problem you would have with an aftermarket shifter. I think the spydershaft has been tested at 500 rwhp on slicks. I don't how much than that it will handle though. Looks like your going to be making quite a bit of hp with...

    got a ticket tonight

    Sounds like a clear case of profiling. He probably wouldn't have given you a second look had you been driving a family sedan. He sounds like a real jerk, should have given you a verbal warning and went about his business. Did you squeel the tires? Do you have loud exhaust? I just...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    Yea, in 06 the dealership let me order my 06GT and pay invoice for it. I would have paid several thousand over MSRP for the same car a year earlier. About a $5000-$7000 difference between getting one at dealer cost and paying MSRP plus a markup.

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    If the news ones have hips and a 5.0, I'll be getting a new one for sure. I just hope they don't have dealer markups the first year like the 05's did.:notnice:

    Newest mods (Lots of pics!!!!)

    Thanks for the link but I'm actually talking about simply cleaning off the dirt/grime. I've got a lot of pollen under there too. It's hard to do it right with all the wires.

    A question for all you people with a lot of mods

    You just need a cool service manager. Mine replaced an o2 sensor under warranty even with LT headers, no questions asked. I've never seen anybody on any forums really complaining about getting screwed over by the dealer because of a few bolt ons. I guess it could happen but the fun of doing...

    Newest mods (Lots of pics!!!!)

    How do you get the engine bay so clean? Mine looks pretty embarrasing.

    Lowered Car rubs entering/exiting parking lots

    Yea my car rubs pretty easy with FRPP springs. I can finesse the car out of driveways but speed bumps are a problem. It also scrapes the gaurd rails around the oil pit too. The LT's are the main problem, but I have also scraped the cat-back pipes as well. I always go out of steep...

    Who wins???

    Probably a drivers race but the 06 should be a faster car with those mods.

    No wonder I hate baseball

    The very first thing that would cross my mind if I were parking at a little league ball park is "is it humanly possible to hit a baseball this far?" Don't feel bad though. At least you didn't get white paint overspray on your 2 week old car because of a bunch of dim wits painting a big...

    How clean is your stang??

    Anyone? I'm thinking a big air hose will do the trick.

    How clean is your stang??

    What about the engine bay? I haven't cleaned mine since owning the car and it looks horrible. What's the best way to do it without knocking something loose?

    2010 Mustang in Detroit

    I like it except for the vent shades on the back. I hope the next gen has hips but maybe not quite that high.

    Whats your occupation?

    Small TV station/cameraman/editor. I have access to tons of professional camera/audio equipment yet I have no videos of my car! Just don't like bringing my work home.

    Headlight/Tailight/Foglight covers

    If you black everything out then watch out for the fuzz, I'm sure it's illegal in about every state. I put GTS fog light covers on mine to dim them because every other car was throwing their high beams in my face. It worked too because I never got flashed a single time with them on. I...
