I'm thinking 10:00 a.m. would be pretty safe. Is it being held @ AAMC?

I think it will be at the Westfield Annapolis Mall, they have large enough parking lots to hold an event like this.

No they won't do this in a commercial mall lot.

It's going to probably be in that lower parking lot with the single building across from the HH Gregg/Sandy Spring Bank/Jennifer Road. It's an office plus complex. If you look on Google maps, they have a lower lot that looks like it's not used much.

The event yesterday was in a section of the Mall parking lot, and the one before it was as well.

I do see that lot as well, that would be a good spot. So in the area of the Mall then. I'm sure I'll be able to see it either way, lol.

Yeah, I was noticing that on the pictures, thats way I went with the Annapolis Mall lots.

Either way, I'll be there!!

Seems to be affiliated with Westfield property management Co.(the mall) somehow

yeah, it'll have to be one of those two parking lots. K - see everyone next week. I'm going to show early probably. Then maybe run out to Edgewater for lunch on the water.

Annapolis Mall really has no room in their lots for this...all of them are pretty tightly packed or on slopped areas on the unpopular side.

One thing I noticed that nobody mentioned, is that tire width doesn't really matter, at least visually. The tires are so tucked into the new body that you can't even see the width unless you are on your knees. I don't care as much now that the stock tires are 235s.

Other impressions - the Ecoboost is fast - as fast as my 06 GT was. And even the non-PP can handle well. The car is just so solid. The Ecoboost is quiet, even for a 4 cylinder turbo. It feels very refined and the low end torque is right THERE. My second time around the loop, I changed the steering to Sport and the TC to Sport+. It let me bring the tail around a good bit and was minimally intrusive. The ford rep also mentioned that he averaged 33.5 MPG from Detroit to Chicago, so the MPG numbers are understated.

The PP GT that the pro was driving - holy crap was it fast and cornered insanely. Either it is because I haven't been in a high-po car for a while, but I was really astonished with how freaking fast this thing is in a straight line AND around the corners. I was seriously impressed!

So would you ever consider buying the EB after driving it (lets say you never had a Mustang and you're slate is clean of any preconceptions).

And I have no idea how 1) Lakeland became part of Orlando (60 miles away) or 2) how on earth we scored two days of the event. But since that mall is less than three miles from my house, I'm not complaining. ;)

The last Ecoboost challenge to be held in Orlando actually took place at Daytona Beach. I don't know what maps they are looking at.

Here you go guys..from the PONY's mouth to mine.

The Washington, D.C. events will run from 10 AM to 6 PM in both Annapolis on 10/15 and Tyson's Corners on 10/17. cc:

Son of a, I really need to watch this forum closer; I didn't know what "mustangbucketlist" could be and assumed it was a thread I wouldn't care about. Oh how that adage about assume has come true for me. I could have hit at least one of the Chicago events...sure wish the thread was titled "drive a 2015" or something similar. :(

Does anyone know if you need to be a part of a Mustang club to attend this event? (specifically the Philly event). I'd want to go but I'm not a part of any clubs. I've been holding off on the order of a 2015 until I really see the car so I cant think of a better place to do so.
