My new ride and other photos As many of you know, I ordered a new Mustang but because of a couple things, i.e. poor planning on FoMoCo's part, greed on their part and lawsuits, I just couldn't wait for them to get around to things. I guess the one good thing is that when I do get a Mustang (summer of 2008) all the bugs will be worked out of it  I know the above car isn't something that I talked about, but its a car that I admired from a distance though. One thing that I didn't expect was the quality of the car, not to mention the "coolness" factor that it does have. It may have "only 215 hp", but it makes the most of it due to its curb weight (3016 lbs), the gearing in the tranny (4.459 1st gear), rear gearing (3.25) and torque (229 ft/lbs). I ended up leasing it because of the price and ease of getting out of it down the road, thus freeing me up to get into the Mustang, well, as long as they have their act together by then  Now I know some of you will not like the car and not even understand why I bought it, but if you get to take one for a ride, it will be clear as to why I stepped up and got it (for right now anyways)

Well considering that it deploys at 62 mph, yes, but I think you meant somewhere "south of that", right? Seeing that its me and my "don't run it too hard"  , probably not, LOL!
