    2005 GT vs. 2006-2008?

    I just traded my '05 GT with 31K miles for an '08 GT Vert. I didn't have any problems with my '05 other than the tech notice stuff that I had fixed early on. Car was still running as good as the day I bought it.

    Ordered New '08 Vert Today

    There is just something about the sound of running through the gears on a stick. Now I won't miss the stick in traffic. I think it's a nice compromise and now maybe SWMBO will drive the Stang more.

    Disable Clutch Engagement To Start?

    Well the T5 in that I have in my '68 has a neutral safety feature (as well it should since the '86-'93 Stangs w/T5's had this feature). If the tranny is not in neutral, the engine will not turn over. That's the feature I wish they had on the new Stangs. Which feature did the '94's to '04's...

    How Many 15oz Cans of R134a?
