You guys are lucky. Try driving a Fox.

When i bought my SN95 i was amazed that I could now make a U-turn without needing 4 lanes to do so like my '88

That is what the gas pedal is for.

It's very easy to donut the Stang in a tight radius when needed.

Just make sure the traction control is off first. I almost wrecked the Stang doing this when I first bought it and forgot to turn TC off.

Yes, the 'Stangs turning radius is horrific and it pisses me off every time I need to parallel park.

My Jeep on the other hand, will cut a turn so rediculously sharp it is amazing.

go drive just about any nissan for a week and you will be begging for it you have the turning radious of a stang. trust me, i drove my aunts maxima for a week and they are by far the worst. there are u-turns i can make in my moms navigator that i cant make in here maxima. and all the guys are work who own nissans complain about there turning radious.
