    Do people yield you the left lane?

    Sometimes in the Stang, but always when I'm in my Vette...:D

    Why black-out the rear of a S197?

    The reason, you ask? Because it's the retro look...check out this pic of a '70 Boss...

    Accidental Oil Mix

    If you're a quart low @ 1,500 miles then you need to take it in to the dealer and have them look at it...a quart low with that mileage is definitely NOT normal...

    Windows Rattling -- Help!

    Unless you've been driving often over railroad tracks for the past 18K miles...I would take it in to your dealership and they can have their bodyshop take a look at it...maybe all they need are a few adjustments.

    So who drives their Mustang in the winter?

    I agree that $0.5K isn't going to get you much of a beater...however, there are plenty of $3-4K beaters out there that are very dependable and will not cost much to maintain. It's a much better alternative then having some jerk run into your baby on an icy day...definitely peace of mind getting...

    Help! I have caulky gunk on my hood

    I've found WD-40 to help in a lot of instances and it's relatively safe on cured clear coat paint...I know that I've used it in the past (soaked a clean rag with WD-40 and allowed it to sit over some very old dried up tree sap and about 15 minutes later I was able to remove the quarter sized...

    Mustang vandalized - body shop or dealership?

    Check for a "Colors on Parade" outfit near you. They will come to your house and fix the scratch on the spot (you might even need a PDR person (paintless dent repair) guy to fix the small concave spots on the scratch...they can do wonders and do it right in your driveway. Call some local...

    NastyStang, that may be true for Florida...but I can almost guarantee you'll get pulled over in Virginia...in Virginia we also have the dreaded annual State Safety inspection where they check everything from brakes, tires, exhaust system (smog in the northern parts), tinting, etc.,...I don't...

    Stupid Windshield Replacement Question...

    I just had my replaced...very small chip in my line of vision...drove me nuts because the rest of the windshield was perfectly clear. Anyway, I requested OEM Carlite and had my insurance company cover it (I rarely ever make a claim)...I ended up paying $100...the insurance company paid the...

    new guy wanting some TINT input!!

    Stick with the laws on tinting...in VA Beach the local police have light meters and they will stop you if you're not within specs...it's not worth the extra attention and getting stopped. Then you have to get it replaced besides paying the fine, etc. The local tint shops will give you what you...

    big guy in a little mustang possible?

    Chris, I'm not exactly small myself @ 250lbs and there's plenty of room...the only thing you should do is have a friend check to see if the car leans to the left a bit when you're in it...it shouldn't because of the stiffer suspension, etc.,...but do have a friend check from the rear to see if...

    Tire Pressure Sensor

    Remember...looking at a low profile tire will never give you an idea of a tire getting low. My recommendation is that you check your pressure (cold) at least once a month and set it to 32/33 PSI. Also check it during weather changes...remember for every 10 degree change in temperature, your...

    old vs new

    Wow! Goes to show that all of that extra HP doesn't mean anything in the quarter mile...The GT500 needs to lose some weight.

    ticket for driving lights

    1) Have you been the "recipient" of a GT with it's fog lamps on? You may understand why the officer stopped you...they are bright (DOT approved or not)... 2) The fact you have the ability to turn them on/off (i.e. don't come on automatically with the your lights) is not helpful to your case...

    Creases in front bumper ?

    I have the same creases...I've seen it other Stangs also...it must be caused by some metal behind it...you will find all kinds of small defects on the car believe me. Remember, it's not a Lexus.:D

    DOING 160MPH

    The current stock tires (Pirelli 17" M&S high performance all season) are ZR rated (meaning they can handle above 149MPH -- of course, how much over, we really don't know).

    Rear quarter window discoloration

    Jared, I believe I've found a temporary solution. ...I took a small piece of cloth (baby diaper) and lightly soaked it with 3-in-1 oil and folded it so that it would be shoved up behind the bottom portion of the glass. With a back and forth motion I was able to make the "discoloration"...
