    Drove a 05 for 28 miles - and got paid for it!

    Not sure if this is legite, but it is one guys opinion. In viewing the trilogy video I would say the the pony does pretty well. Of coarse the GT(40) was better, but the mustang hung tough. It will not stop me from buying one.

    Winter Storage

    Ok, I know that we are in the middle of summer and the ponies aren't out yet, but reading through some these posts sparked some ?'s in my little brain. This will be my first new vehicle in over 10 years and it will get stored. I live in Michigan where there is more salt on the road than there...

    Putting me back in my high shool days with a "new" old car is not what I expected. I know it's a done deal but I'm not buying it. Great! one more for me.

    Has anyone seen under the hood?

    I was just curious about how much room is under the hood. Any of you ladies or gents that have seen it, does it look easy to work on? To get at the plugs and all the normal stuff or mods?

    Poll: Age of the mustang buyer

    Just a light hearted poll. I'm actually learning something. I believe it is valid in the context in which it stands. Yes, if I wanted a national poll that would reflect real numbers than I would have done it in that forum. Or I would have gotten John Zogby or Gallupp/CNN to do the poll. I was...

    What is the MSRP on the new '05?

    Search the forums here. A lot of good threads have been started on these subjects. The bottom line is that nobody really knows the answer to either of these questions.

    Insurance rates?

    Well, that's exactly why I started the thread, to get people to discuss the different variables and what-not associated with their new stang. I post mine as a reference to anyone else who wants to jump in. I btw, have a close to perfect driving record. I am 42 years old and have only had one...

    Insurance rates?

    Insurance is one thing that all of will have to consider when buying our new ponies. I have State Farm and I had my agent quote the '05 GT for me. It's your stand broad collision coverage. $50 ded. on comp., $250 ded. on collision. All the standard liability amounts. He told me that the rates...

    Saw '05 Mustang on the road today... my thoughts!

    It's rather humorous reading all of these posts. It's like watching my teenagers argue about who looked at who first. This is not a slam to anyone. I will gladly jump in. It just proves that there are a lot of people that are very passionate about their mustangs. I absoulutley disagree with...

    This thing is Huge for Mother ford!!!

    Yes, everyone is probably sick of hearing about it. But that's part of the excitement. The company I work for is making 6 parts for the new mustang. We started sampling last August. We have been in partial production since the first of the year. We have had some major meetings in the last couple...

    GTO or Stang

    Thought I would start a poll that I think I already know the answer to. Will the GTO with Specially tuned version of 5.7L LS1 V-8 generating an estimated 350 horsepower (261 kw) and 365 lb.-ft. (495 Nm) of torque beat the new GT?

    personalized car tag ideas

    Got my plate yesterday. MY05GT I had to stick it on my Lumina. It looks rather odd. Now all I need is an '05 GT to go with it.

    Delivery dates?

    Well, I'm in kind of a self-inflicted bind. I am so anxious for this car to come out I can't stand it. I have been a mustang nut since I was in 6th grade when my buddy’s dad gave him an 8 year old '65. I also read somewhere in these forums that the first years production would be gone in three...
