I always tell people i bought a greene car. Then they laugh when i tell them it is a green stang. It is not bad on gas....depending. Did a 650 mi trip....freeway at 75 to 80....25 mpg.....130 mi of curves in mostly 3rd ...18
Hi - I havenāt been on a lengthy trip with the Bullitt yet, just some day trips (3G on the odometer). My overall milage is around 21 to 22 mpg. Hopefully later this month we can take a nice trip if my wife has enough confidence in her 6 speed capabilities. At my age (77) we have to occasionally switch drivers. She did okay with the ā92 Vette 6 speed, but is less comfortable with the GTO 4 speed. I trick her into driving by occasionally having a beer with my meal and telling her I would feel better if she drove. The highway milage will be okay, but never great with 3.73 gearing (the Vette was around 1200 rpm at 60 mph). We donāt buy these cars with milage efficiency in mind but a trip with some decent milage can be psychologically satisfying. We find the standard seats to be very comfortable, so a long trip in the Bullitt will be acceptable. Besides, there is less room for shopping bags than in the Impala (always have to be thinking ahead, right?)... Bruce
The bullitt is a different mustang. I traded in my black pp stang with a few mods. Really a striking fast car. The 15 had less hp..but short gears...fast. All the options like the 50 yr anv ....pp..electronics. All said on a road with curves...the bullitt woud walk away....480 hp and magnaride suspension. No comparison on curves. Mostly use 3rd gear...some times 2nd. Dont need to shift....just drive and enjoy.
It even handles curves well without magniride (even the base suspension tech is solid af). Took mine down a country road last week and put it through some paces. Not as much fighting curves, more like skating on pavement. Sure, I could take that curve at 85 if I had magna, but I'm enjoying the hell out of it at 75.
