Was your vehicle lemon'd before 24k mikes? Did you file through BBB or via a LL Attorney?
8000 miles. Ford Customer Service Regional Manager for NJ Matthew Anderson Filed it for me so i couldn't tell you... why?

I was just wondering - some have filed on their own via BBB, others have retained LL Attorneys. Be sure to post it up in the Lemon Law thread in the TSB subsection on here - so that when that vehicle is returned to the used car pool, hopefully a potential buyer who does a VIN look up will hit it...

I don't know the market for trucks in NJ, but in Texas, I think it's much cheaper to get into a GT vs a 5.0 F150 or 3.5 Ecoboost. Just wait until the 2018s roll around, so that dealers will need to clear their 2017 inventory. Beside IMO the 2018 facelifts on both the stand and F150 are undesirable. Either way go with a 5.0. My wife has a 2017 Ford Explorer Sport, and I wish it came with a 5.0 instead of the 3.5 ECOboost. The midrange torque is great, but the 5.0's power band is silky smooth.

Of course. When it's all said and done. They should remove the roush stuff and then crush the rest of t but it will just end up back in market.

Once again pricing itself and good deals and whether or not a dealer wants to get rid of an old vehicle are unrelated. As it stands nj lemon law is based solely on the window sticker msrp on my mustang and my replacement vehicle. Also yes a mustang is way cheaper than an f150 which is why I'm considering trying to have ford cover the difference. Almost get them to a point where their answer is "give him what he wants so he goes away without causing us problems."

Go for a 2018 GT
Definitely don't want to wait that long and also I can't order custom do the chances of a first run of 18s being exactly how I want are slim to none

You should get a clue if you have to ask people on the Internet to make decisions for you.

Wait for a GT...though I can't bash the F150 3.5EB. I've driven a few of them at my old job (about 15-20 miles each), and it's a very nice ride, but still doesn't compare in any way to a GT.

The 5.0 F150 also felt pretty good driving but I've only driven 2 of those and it didn't feel quite as good as the 3.5EB. Either way my vote goes for getting your hands on a GT.

If you really want a GT then I would wait however long it takes to get one. Nothing worse than settling for something that you never really truly love to drive.

I must not understand how the internet works then. Sorry for offending you with my forum post.

I probably would agree with that I think I really need to drive the new f150 apparently the newer 3.5 Eco is words better than the older 3.5 Eco.

Yeah idk man I think I'd be pretty happy with an f150. I probably shouldntve included the gt on the list lol of course everyone on a mustang forum would want that.

Thanks for all input thus far.

I also have a 2006 f-150 crew cab. It's great to have both but if I had to pick just one I'd get the mustang.

A truck is probably a better choice since it is more versatile. It's also nice to have a truck incase you need to transport large items.

Agreed. I have one of these as my secondary vehicle. Selling it and most likely buying an old f150. The real choice is [new mustang old f150] or [new f150 old mustang] lmao.

I would demand the value that I am owed in cash, so I could buy the next vehicle at the deal I want.

I'd go with a 2017 Mustang GT/PP.

The 2017 Mustangs are being offered with 0% financing for 72 months currently (Ford Credit)!

Try to work that financing deal in...
