    4.6 reliability and peformance over the years

    Would it be better to get a 99-04 GT or a 05 GT? I realize the 05’s got a healthy bump in power to 300 but does it make it much faster or is it a heavier car? What would a 99-04 take to be able to equal an 05 performance wise. Are there any other benefits to going with an 05+?

    4.6 reliability and peformance over the years

    Thanks for the replies. If I decide to jump into another Mustang in a year or two it will likely be a 99-04 since I prefer that look to the 05+ stangs and I wouldn't want to go any older than that because it wouldn't have the PI heads.

    4.6 reliability and peformance over the years

    I've been out of the Mustang scene for a while now but am hoping in the next few years to pick a used one up to have something fun to drive. My first Mustang was a 86 GT Convertible and the second was a 96 GT. I much preferred the 4.6 over the 5.0 because I found it much smoother. At the...

    Traction control and winter driving

    What year did traction control start in the 4.6 GT's? Was it standard? How do they handle in the winter with TC? I had a 96GT and it was absolutely hopeless anytime the roads even a dusting. Was TC available on the V6's?

    Any aftermarket support yet?

    I used to have a 96GT and at the time there were next to no aftermarket parts for it. I had the usual done to it.... gears, exhaust, CAI, MAF, subframes, shifter, pulleys. I sold the car about 4 years ago. Has the aftermarket picked up for these cars? Does anyone make heads or intake for...

    When I had my 96GT I had a MAC high flow cat H-pipe with the MAC catback and was VERY happy with the sound.

    Sssshhhh, keep it down

    Will this mean the end of Fredericton's Thursday night car gatherings by the river??? Assuming they are still going on because I haven't lived there in 2 years. I admit that there are some cars that are too loud but where do you draw the line? Any aftermarket exhaust? :notnice...

    Questions about V6 mustangs

    After having a GT previously I would definately rather an 8 cyl than a 6. But other things I need to consider are increased gas usage with the 8 and I need something that would be decent in the winter (6 should be better than an 8)

    Questions about V6 mustangs

    Hi there, I'm thinking about coming back to the world of Mustangs. I used to have a 96GT and sold and it got a 00 Jetta because I needed something I could drive year round and that was good on gas. Good car but very slow and lately have been running into some reliability problems. If I get...

    Question about car registration

    I went and got my oil changed today and was asking the guy about inspections. He said that they don't do MVI's here in Alberta but that I would have to get some sort of out of province registration form from DMV and then bring it somewhere for an out of province inspection to be done and that it...

    Question about car registration

    I just moved from Fredericton, NB to Calgary. My NB registration expires Sept 15/04 my inspection is up the end of Sept as well. My insurance is good until mid November though. I'm not sure how I should handle this. If I go ahead and pay my NB registration, is that the thing where they send me...

    Montreal Tunnel.....

    I am moving from Fredericton, NB to Calgary, AB on July 30. Our first stop will be in Ottawa. I've never driven through Montreal but have bad memories of it from when I was a kid driving through there with my parents. It doesn't look too bad on the map but I just have a question. I would be...

    Calgary - Telus or Rogers cell phone?

    Thanks everyone. I went with Telus. They gave us a NB # but told us to just go into a Telus dealer when we get out there and they'll change it to an AB # for us. They threw in some extras for us which was good. We got the 2nd phone for no extra charge, he waived the activation fee on both...

    Calgary - Telus or Rogers cell phone?

    I'm going to be moving from NB to Calgary in the next month or so. I'm going to get a cell phone here before I leave with a Calgary # so that I can have it on the drive out as well as when I'm living there. Who has the best coverage in Calgary? Telus or Rogers? Are there any other cell phone...
