Just like the title says. I'm lookin to get a subscription for some mustang mag, and i'm lookin for the one with the most info on our cars. Back when I had a fox body I used to get MM & FF, and 5.0 Mustang and Super Ford. Are these still good?

None, in the last 10-12 years since I have been driving, I have found most, if not all magazines are full of it.

The cutting edge of performance vehicles, whatever your flavor may be, is found on Racing boards, Performance shop boards, local boards, and sites such as this. Plus, these sites have search engines, the amount of info out on the net about a particular car would take you many lifetimes to read.

I have stacks upon stacks of MM&FF and 5.0 Mustang sitting in my closet. I still think that MM&FF is a good choice

I've let both my subscriptions to 5.0 and MMFF expire. They were the best magazines in the world 15-20 years ago when it was nothing but cover to cover Fox articles and I had my '89GT and '93GT. Now it's covering multiple bodystyles, and they might have 1 article a year with a Mach in it.

Question is: Do you want babe of the month or Mustang of the month?

I get both 5.0 and MM&FF. I have been getting them both for the past 8+ years. I know in the new mag's there are cards where you can get mm&ff and 5.0 together for a year for a decent price. yes they dont always have new edge stuff, but then agian I cant say I read it for tech stuff, I just read them because I am a stang lover no matter what the year. If I want tech, I come to stangnet

Thanks for the input guys. Ive got 2 big stacks of MM & FF and 5.0 Mustang and super Ford. I kinda figured the tech articals wouldnt be worth it anymore with so many styles being covered, and alot of topics already done. Just something to read once a month is nice. I get mini truckin and sport trucks right now. Just thought i would mix it up with a mustang mag.

The forums are better than the mags. I dont get them anymore. Used to get 5.0 and Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords.

I've subscribed to MM&FF, 5.0, and Modified for a few years now. I enjoy reading them, and I enjoy learning about anything for all Mustangs.
I DON'T, however, subscribe to them for info or articles on 99-04 Mustangs, because there are hardly any, although they have done a few 2v engine builds within the past year or so. Seems they even neglect the fox half the time. Everything is all S197 now it seems.

I do go back to all the old mags I have stacked up from 98-04 and dig around and find some good coverage and tech article on the 99-04's, from them. Back when the new edge was the big thing.

I stopped looking at magazines a good five years ago.
