    Should I be worried?

    Out of curiosity...What is Ford's recommended change interval on the plugs?

    No oil fill cap!

    I agree with dc06gt, I change my own oil/filter...never trust anyone else with the "blood" of your engine. And this is one of the easiest Stangs ever to change the oil and filter. Lesson learned.

    Just bought a new 'Stang and very PO'd

    Remember with "stripes" you'll have to earn them every day at every light...put a supercharger on her and surprise them all.

    Rear quarter window discoloration

    I'm thinking of covering the quarter windows with some louvers...it's a shame because I love the look of the rear quarter windows...this problem is definitely more prevalent on the 05 and 06 Stangs...07 Stangs will be next...it's just a matter of time I guess. If anyone comes up with the...

    Rear quarter window discoloration

    Well, I did use some of Eagle One's Wipe and shine a few times in the past with a soft cloth to get some of the crud that accumulates in that area (under the bottom of the glass)...that could be it. However, I checked a few of the dealer lots in my area and some the older '05/'06 Stangs are...

    Rear quarter window discoloration

    I've posted this on another forum and I am posting it here to see if any other owners on this forum have noticed the same thing on their quarter windows. I've noticed a discoloration (not condensation) at the bottom edges of my rear quarter windows. It is more pronounced on the right rear...

    got a ticket tonight

    I'm sure that a cop can arrest you if you shoot somebody on private property. :D

    got my first ding today :(

    Paintless Dent Repair is the way to go...call some of the dealerships in your area and find out who they recommend...I've used the same PDR guy for the past 13 years...he has removed at least 30 dents from my various vehicles since that time. Better than new.

    3V Spark plug change hell

    I'll worry about the plugs when the 100K miles arrives...if it 'aint broke, don't fix it.

    Another reason to love my Stang

    Knocking stopped once I went with the 87 occtane and 89 octane fuel "shuffle" on fill-ups....(I have to keep a piece of paper to remind me if I filled it up with 87 or 89 the last time...heheheheehehehehe)...but no more knocking on accelerations...

    No wonder I hate baseball

    Humboldt Stang, glad you were able to get the dent repaired...if you lived in the Hampton Roads area (SE Virginia)...your profile doesn't list your location... I would have recommended my PDR guy to you (I've used him for over 10 years). In fact, I had him take out a couple of small shallow...

    Premium unleaded

    I shift back and forth with 87 and 89 octane of Shell gas on each tank fill up...no more spark knock and she seems to run beautifully!

    Power window problem, Just happened!! please help!!

    Cover her up (or put her in the garage) and wait until Monday morning...check with the dealer to insure you have the first appointment. They'll fix it for you. Better yet...call the dealer and ask him to put the vehicle inside in one of their bays just before closing.

    Shell Gas

    Always used Texaco until Shell bought them out...now I alternate between Shell and BP...but this baby seems to run much better on Shell. I alternate between 87 and 89 octane on fillups. Used to have a little bit of pinging on acceleration with 87 octane. Pinging is now gone for the last 4K miles.

    wrecked last night

    Wow! Makes me sick to see it. Be sure to take your time and check out various body/paint shops...not all shops are created "equal" some will ensure the job is better than the factory, ask around and check out some of their jobs before picking one.

    03stangvert, Anthony, now I ask you...have you ever given a ticket to another law enforcement officer for speeding? Mark

    got a ticket! 82 in a 55

    Hire a lawyer who specializes in speeding tickets...you'll find them everywhere. May cost up to $600...however, they'll get it reduced to something less than a moving violation...remember, money talks and BS walks. My son had his ticket reduced from a 75MPH - Reckless (in a 55MPH zone) to an...

    New GT Owner

    Fellow Virginian, Be careful about changing your exhaust...you may end up getting more rumble and droning than you bargained for...and that can be irritating to you. I think the Ford engineers designed the perfect note on the stock exhaust, just enough oomph and sound when you need it and...

    Oil changes.... how often?

    Every 3k miles (or 6 months)...whichever comes first.

    Who says that burnouts don't cause powertrain problems...you never know when a burnout will be the one that fries your clutch...ouch!
