    Is it so short that you can easily hit 3rd instead of 5th or something like that? Hehe :P

    Credit Rating ?

    Thanks for all the replies guys. So the jist of it is that in order to build credit you have to spread out the payments, and they obviously have to be on time, instead of paying it all in one chunk even if you have no problem affording it... seems illogical to me. If you pay it all, all at...

    Credit Rating ?

    I'm planning on buying a mustang within the next couple of years. I'm pretty young and don't have any credit cards yet. I do have a debit card that I use regularly but am wondering if I should start building up some credit now so I get a decent APR for when the time comes. Would I even be...

    Questions of a 16 year old...

    If you're afraid of taking your calipers off to paint and then bleeding the brakes (putting in speedbleeders is just as simple as bleeding brakes) I don't know what mods you will be able/or want to do... it is natural to be nervous at first, I suggest if you're just starting out with...

    Best way to break in new car

    Whenever you're in the city rev the engine up to maybe 4.5-5K RPM (in gear) and then completely let off, this will more effectively seat the piston rings. In the long run I doubt it matters, they break engines in at factories nowadays anyhow.

    Questions of a 16 year old...

    Bleeding your brakes is no biggie and is a regular maintenance item on any car ( I don't care what the interval listed in the manual is, I do it once every spring). You should be replacing your brake fluid once every year anyhow, especially DOT3 fluid which I think the Mustang uses, it boils...

    17 or 18 inch? Ride Quality vs Handling?

    Dont assume bigger wheels = better handling, maybe if the road were perfectly flat and perfect you would notice. Not to mention adding weight and rotational mass isnt the way to achieve better handling.

    Hybrid Mustang?

    I dunno if it would look very nice since the whole back end of the car would be covered in black soot from a diesel like that :)

    Brits Review Mustang GT

    VW build quality has never been very good, a lot of miscelaneous little things fail on many of them, sensors, lights, things like that... though they are getting better I hear.

    Hybrid Mustang?

    A buddy of mine has a 1983 Mercedes 240D (2.4 liter 4 cyl diesel). It's got like 320K miles on it and is solid as a rock after he got the suspension rebuilt. What i was amazed at was the interior that wouldn't squeak or creak even after 20 some years and 300+K miles. What I was also amazed at...

    I Finally Found H13 Xenon Bulbs for my 05!!

    All these will do is cause annoying glare for other drivers... you need a proper setup not just bulbs.

    Eclipse vs. Mustang

    From reading the magazines you can tell the Eclipse does not handle as well or as stiffly as the Mustang (though this could be because of the tires it is supplied with?), though I am inclined to agree with you about its ride/indep suspension. Basically I'd only go with the Eclipse if you think...

    Well look at the RAISED truck that crashed into it, its bumper is at head level of whoever was in the back (if anybody).
