I will be 72 7/12/2015 and I never had a Mid Life Crisis. I TRIED to
buy my first Mustang on July 4th 1966 but for every Mustang in stock
there were 15 trying to buy it. SOoo they said my car was being prepped
from 8am till Noon. I would ask every hour and was told the same thing.
I was about to...
I got out of the Army in 1964 and Ordered (NOT A MUSTANG) A Galaxie
500 Fastback with the 390 ci NOT the 427 because it had only a 90 day
Warranty, the 390 had 12 Months and it was a Cruise-O-Matic, a 3 speed
Auto. Well I would run it to 60MPH in LOW Gear and the Valves would
"float". The Police...
This is all GREAT! But..... I believe the 2013 and 2014 V6 IN THE REAL
WORLD GET'S BETTER MPG AND IS JUST ABOUT EVEN AT THE DRAG
STRIP. AND....... COST LESS. AND SOUNDS A LOT BETTER STOCK.
My 2013 and NOW my 2014 V6 Auto with 2.73 rear will JERK you back when
floored from any MPH above 10 and pull like the dickens past 80 to 90.
That 2014 V6 Rental you rented MUST HAVE HAD WATER IN THE TANK OR
SOMEONE STOLE THE 3.7 AND PUT IN A 4.0! (Remember the HERTZ DEAL)?
I THINK YOU JUST HIT THE REASON I DON'T LIKE THE 15 STANG.
IT IS TOO MUCH EURO. I LIKE AMERICAN AND I DON'T LIKE CHANGE.
IF IT ISN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT! JUST IMPROVE IT!
I LOVED READING THIS! Buttttttttt..... I disagree with you on GM ADVANCES. In 2014 GM RECALLED OVER 30 MILLION VEHICLES due to
cost cuts and short cuts JUST TO SAVE DOLLARS and to hell with
safety and anything else. THIS ALL STARTED JUST AFTER MODEL
YEAR 2000! I HAVE BEEN A FORD MAN AND BOY...
In the mid 50's at the high school I attended at Haloween they would
take a 40's car and CHARGE 50 cents to hit the car (1) One time with
a HEAVY SLEDGE HAMMER and it would ONLY DENT A FENDER 1/4 INCH!
This was a money maker for the school because the car would take A
LOT OF ABUSE.
Now let me think about all this...... TURN ON WIPERS ON RIGHT SIDE TO
GET THE LIGHTS ON THE LEFT SIDE ON, POP THE TRUNK TO GET THE HOOD OPEN, WAIT FOR RAIN TO GET WIPERS ON, WAIT FOR NIGHT TO
GET LIGHTS ON, NO WAIT..... LIGHTS GO ON WHEN YOU TURN ON THE
WIPERS ON RIGHT SIDE, NO WAIT...... DO I...
GOOD GOD! That front end is MORE UGLY than THE REAR of the GT.
AND THATS SAYING A LOT. The rear of the 15 is HORRID!
I'll take a 2014 (I DID), over the 2015. I'll take the 2014 Shelby
GT500 over THIS 2015 Shelby GT!
This being said THE 2015's AT SEMA WERE SUPER!
EXCEPT POOR FOOSE JUST...
I'm OLD (71) And I Love The 13/14 Rear End And Hate The 15 Rear + a
lot more of the mess I see inside and outside.
I suggest you SAW off The REAR of the 15 and SAW off the REAR of a
13/14 and SLIDE the 13/14 INSIDE of the OPEN AREA of the 15. NOW
you just FILL IN WITH BONDO AND TAPER TOWARD...
Wireless! I made my last trip to Dallas and back December 22-23 arriving
6AM IN THAT THUNDER STORM that was going on. I departed Dallas this
same Day the 23. I drove all monday night (10 hours) to Dallas left I635
and I30 at 1:30pm Back To Paris arriving (10 Hours) later. Total Miles 1216.
It is...
YOU TELL EM! Michelin IS THE BEST AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE STOCK
TIRE! ALSO FRONT AND REAR SHOULD BE THE SAME SIZE TIRE! IF YOU
WANT BICYCLE TIRES ON THE FRONT GO BUY EM!
WELL my 2 cents.
You are in the Dallas area. I have been to Dallas in my 13 and 14 V6 five
times since August. I drive in convoy from Addison west to I35 and South
to Downtown staying on the Bumper of the Car I FOLLOW. I KNOW IF I
PASSED YOU WHEN I KICKED THE V6 TO CHANGE LANES YOU WOULD BE...
