    iPod for Mustang?

    Thinking of getting an iPod. Anybody heard of any kits that allow the iPod to interface with the Shaker 500?

    Good-looking yellow pony. Very similar to the one I saw, but a few details are different ...

    Yellow 2005 V6 Sighted in SF on Sunday ...

    Saw it at the Cost Plus/Barnes and Nobles parking lot near Fisherman's Wharf, on Sunday afternoon. Yellow with black stripes. Louvers on the C-pillar windows. Scoops behind the doors. Yellow inserts in the black leather seats. "Mustang" script, tricolor pony, and 4.0 badges. If you're...

    Retro Styling or is it just American Styling?

    Good point. The BMW Z8 has a lot of cues that go back to the 507, too. Of course, I prefer the looks of my 05 Mustang to anything BMW makes! :D

    Retro Styling or is it just American Styling?

    That's a good point. In many ways, retro is American. When Ford designed the S197, they were consciously trying to move away from European and Japanese styling. It looks retro to us, but maybe that's because it's been awhile since we've seen new cars that embraced the American look...

    What colors are looking best on the 05's?

    Naturally, I prefer Sonic Blue. :D Although a buddy of mine has a black 05 with red stripes and it looks stunning -- really, really sharp.

    Retro Styling or is it just American Styling?

    Well, if you've read the launch book, the Ford designers seem to make the case that the car is more American than retro. I'd have to agree.

    Finally raced my cousins Trans Am

    Okay, I'll allow a grudging respect for any Trans Am built before 1974. Especially a 455 HO. But by the late 1970s, they were just ridiculous. Sorry, but for me the T/A will never live down its disco roots. It's like the leisure suit in GM's closet. And before you GM guys start in...

    Finally raced my cousins Trans Am

    Yeah, a Trans Am will always be the Discomobile. Unless you're Burt Reynolds, I guess, in which case it's the Redneckmobile. Either way, you're a lot better off in a Mustang! :nice:

    Cool Quote From Ticketing Officer

    Back home in Texas, I got pulled over a LOT between the ages of 16 and 20. By the time I was 22, I was pretty much a reformed driver, but I had a record. One evening during my senior year of college, I'm coming home from the library (honest!) and a cop pulls me over. My '66 Mustang had a...

    DANICA PATRICK.....Nothing will be the same again!

    One of the best 500s I've seen for years. The kid had a heck of a race, and she handled herself well. Woman or man, she's a fine driver. If she keeps performing as she did on Sunday, she could become of the biggest stars this sport has ever produced. And, yes, it doesn't hurt that she pegs...

    Yuk -- Water Spots!

    Thanks for all the tips, guys! Looks like I'll need to clay bar the car, or take it to a detailer. (Never clay barred a car before, not sure if I want to practice on my new pony.) Something I noticed this morning -- the spots aren't at all visible outdoors, just in my garage under...

    Yuk -- Water Spots!

    The continuing saga of me trying to give my pony a decent wash ... Last weekend, I left water spots all over the car because I didn't dry it properly. This weekend, had new fluffy towels for drying and the car came out great -- but there are still water spots on the top and hood that won't...

    Front Plate - Texas

    Snopes has da dopes! A friend of mine back home has an A&M plate frame, and she flat-out refuses to remove it. If y'all know anything about Aggies, you'll understand. (I'm an Ag myself, BTW.)

    Front Plate - Texas

    Yeah, but I hear that Texas is also outlawing license-plate frames. They're getting ready to go to photo enforcement ...

    Popping noise when I turn the wheel

    Okay, since my build date is April 5, 2005, maybe I can expect to avoid this problem ... ?
