Yep, that's right. 3000 miles in 8 weeks. Though 1200 of that was a 4 day trip out of town.

Anyway, the thing is, on my drive in to work this morning, there were 4 Mustangs, including me, on the freeway. Various year models going back to what looked like an '06. Fun, fun, fun!!!!

It really made me pay attention to mine. It is really nice how it has settled in. It is much smoother and less harsh and "jerky" that on day one. I have owned several Mustangs since 1975. This is really the best yet.

For those just getting a new 'Stang, if you love it now, just wait a few miles.........it gets better and better!!!

I'm averaging about 485 per week, but I drove it home from Baltimore and since I have taken it to Destin and Western NC to ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Still having a blast in it!

I live about 150 mile from one end of Blue Ridge Parkway. We are heading there in 4 weeks. I can't wait to get this thing on those curvy roads!!!!

You will have a blast! Go early in the morning (sunrise early) and enjoy no traffic. By 10 am the roads were packed with motorcycles and cars and it wasn't as much fun.

Nice pic.

I have taken my Harley up and down those roads many times. That is a lot of fun too.

We were on that road in March. At the start of the stretch, it was 70 degrees, when we got toward the top it was snowing and 28 degrees...and the reverse happened going down the other side. Just beautiful!!!

That is crazy! We were up there a few weeks ago and it was 101 in Columbia, SC and it was 75 there. We were in Fleetwood, NC- fairly close to Boone.

Yeah. The temp difference from the bottom to the top is amazing. It varies more in Spring and Fall.

We usually go through there a couple times a year. Beautiful country! I am fortunate to be so close to it.

I rolled 1300 miles on mine in 3 weeks but it's not a daily. The manual is starting to feel a lot better going into all the gears. Thud is still there.
