LOL. 1989 T-bird SuperCoupe, 1990 F-150, 1992 Chevrolet Sportside pickup truck, 1993 Eagle Vision TSi, 1994 Dodge Ram 1500, 1995 Dodge Ram 2500 Club Cab V10. The 1996 Mustang was a 2nd car.

Thank you! Re the two early S197s, color change was the reason for switching. I'd owned the gray 2005 since late 2004 (one of the first ones to hit the dealer lots) and I traded it in after almost 2 years for the 2006 red one in late 2006. Got a good deal on the 2006 since the '07s were already...

Yes, I like Race Red on the S550. Choosing colors is the hardest part of buying a car for me but I looked at Deep Impact Blue, Race Red, and Triple Yellow. After sleeping on it for a few days, I chose Race Red. I went back and forth on Triple Yellow but Race Red won in the end. I never...

Thanks! Thanks! LOL! Thanks! Thanks! Definitely enjoying the S550!

My favorite of them all (not counting my S550, of course) was the 1985 Mustang GT. It was the last year that you could get a Mustang with a carburetor (Holley 4-barrel). This engine was the most evolved and refined of the carbureted 5.0's. This engine also had a roller cam, stainless steel...

Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Yes, I sure do have great memories and stories! Thanks! LOL! Actually, no Mustang II. The King Cobras were kinda cool looking but with a 130 HP 5.0, performance wasn't that great. Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!

Thanks! I used Picasa. It's free and super easy to use.

Thank you!! Yes, they were cool-looking in the context of the times (most everything was downsizing and boxy back then). Of course, not everyone liked the Fox styling, but a lot of folks did. They were a blast to drive. In the first year of production, sales were 370,000 (compared to 192,500...

Some of you have asked to see photos of my previous Mustangs. Instead of uploading a bunch of photos to wade through, I thought I'd just make a collage of them all (1999 model not pictured). This collage represents all gens of Mustang except gen 2 (Mustang II). The year models are listed in my...

I have the GT base suspension and it does a good job of soaking up the potholes. Well, maybe not soaking them up, LOL, but they're no big deal.

I've had mine since Nov. 28 and the honeymoon hasn't worn off yet. Just hitting the start button and hearing (and feeling) that 5.0 V8 is a great way to start the day. The weather has been sunny, 70 degrees since last Friday and is expected to continue thru Tuesday. Warm weather and cheap gas...

I think that as long as Ford still offers a V8 in the F-150, there would be sufficient economies of scale to also offer a version of that V8 in the Mustang. If Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) becomes an issue, Ford can limit the numbers of V8s that are available, if necessary. The Mustang...

Wow! If you had the opportunity to buy a Hyundai Genesis V8 sedan for almost $35K, that would be one heckuva deal ($17K discount)! You're still making the claim that you can get a V8 in a lot of cars yet you haven't answered my question (repeated here): "Try again and show me a sports coupe...

Hyundai V8?? V8s are a dime a dozen today? Really?? LOL! Try again and show me a sports coupe with a V8 that competes in Mustang's price segment (besides Camaro and Challenger). FYI, the V8 Hyundai Genesis is a sedan (4-doors). The Mustang is a sports coupe (or convertible). Additionally, the...

Problem is also happening in North Texas.

Good for you! Lots of folks are commenting how quick the EB is (for a 4-cylinder). 4-cylinder sporty cars are a dime a dozen out there. I want something special and, for me, there is no replacement for the sound and feel of a high performance V8 in a car like the Mustang. I certainly wouldn't...

Agreed. That's what I thought when I listened to the video recordings.

Mine started doing this about a week ago after it sat in the garage overnight. It had been lightly raining during the day and the air was very humid. It's the loudest brake squeal I've ever heard come from a car and it rivals the brake squeal the garbage truck makes when it stops in front of the...

1,100 miles on mine and I haven't heard this noise. Good luck with yours and please keep us posted.

Thanks OP for posting. I hadn't seen this video before until you posted it and found it interesting. Also, the comments posted in the video's comments section were also interesting.
