    Gas Prices

    Yeah that is truly sickening. It makes me queasy. Unfortunately, I think the car I have now (an '08 Mustang V6) will probably be the LAST gasoline-powered car I ever own. It's not that I want it to... but by the time I get ready for another car, gas will be so expensive that I won't be able...

    Gas Prices

    Yeah... 35 years and about double the population later. There may still be "plenty" of oil from a general standpoint, but if you're looking at long-term (e.g., the next 50 years), there is not. It will run out sir... count on it. That is non negotiable.

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    That is true, if you're talking about the specific type of vehicle. But what is inevitable is the depletion of gasoline. What then? I'm for an alternative fuel Stang that compares to or surpasses even the old school generation in terms of power. Maybe that's a pipe dream. But maybe it...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    Another thing... Gasoline doesn't have the market cornered on power. Just because you get away from gas doesn't mean all hope is lost on a new generation of muscle cars. All it requires is a new technology that is sustainable and can generate power. What, you think it isn't possible to...

    Gas Prices

    No one will save us from gas... Obama, McCain, Clinton. No one. We reach each subsequent plateau, $2... $3... $4 per gallon, and Americans get "used to" that level mentally, and it never drops back below. Oil companies then take advantage of that and keep on raising the cost. Look at the...

    Gas Prices

    That may be, but... 1) The Brazil resource has not yet had any time to affect the market. 2) No matter how you slice it, the oil supply is decreasing by the day. And since it's nonrenewable, the oil companies are gonna make you pay more and more til it's gone. Only way gas prices are...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    Fine guys... you don't have to convince me that more muscle is better. But... Ford needs to at least create the option of an alternative fuel Mustang... even if it's ALONG with a gasoline powered version. I'm sorry, but that's just straight progressive and survivalist thinking. If you think...

    Gas Prices

    Not to mention the fact that the world's crude oil is continually running out... and the population continually increasing. I imagine that has something to do with it.

    which emblem do you like, if any?

    The "Powered by Ford" emblem is also a good one. http://store.cobranda.com/pbyfosiem.html coo...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    Yes you all have a point. Mine is just that we will all have to go there sooner or later.

    which emblem do you like, if any?

    I'm referring to the Shelby emblems that I have on the fender. It's funny because everyone gets on my case for running a V6 with the Shelby fender embelms. But I love the look of the snakes.

    which emblem do you like, if any?

    Yeah, put the snake on there.

    Sequential tailights...

    Sweet. I like the new name you have given me. I need to make a signature with that.

    Who wins???

    Ya... I can see the Shelby GT would probably fall behind. I would love to see the GT500 and Terminator go at it.

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    Interesting. I think Ford should be efforting an engine that is less-reliant on gasoline... like a Mustang hybrid. It seems that Ford is a bit lacking in the alternative fuels area... esp with Chevy's hybrid vehicles like the Silverado and Tahoe. I would like to see a hybrid Mustang or an...

    I'd say you accomplished that.

    Who wins???

    Wouldn't a '07-08 GT500 (or Shelby GT, for that matter) smoke a Terminator?

    That 2001 is toast. Go blow the doors off that snake.

    Another reason to love my Stang

    If you are talking about fuel economy, which you seem to be, there is no advantage V8s have over a V6. Sixers get better fuel economy straight up. I don't see how you can argue the other way. If you are comparing the fuel economy/power ratio, then yes I see your point.
