out with the old and in with the new.

the wife and i made a decision today. we're going to sell our 81 bronco and 86 5.0 LX and get her a new base model V6 coupe for her DD. she's been driving her expedition, but we're moving a little further away and as it is she's spending a tank a week. at 75 bucks a tank it's pretty expensive. we're lucky to see 15mpg from it in town or on the highway. from what i hear the new V6 is getting around 23+ mpg in town and over 30 on the highway. so look forward to seeing a nice new, but boringly basic mustang in our new house.

Bob, I bought the now X-WIFE a 2010 V6 and we loved it. It was a stick, and got around 24-26 city and around 30 on her daily 100 mile commute, and up to 34 on a long highway trip. Just a little FYI.

yeah, but there's just something about the new 3.7 getting the extra power and being able to be in the 13's in the 1/4 if driven well

I know where there's an 01 V6 that will be up for sale for pretty cheap soon...

only a few issues with that. it's already 11 years old, it's not nearly as comfortable, no warranty, doesn't look as good (imo)...............

could think of many more really

I know, it's why I'm upgrading.

Why not an SHO??

you find me an sho for 22k

A SHO people.... lol.

I'm sure 2010 SHOs are still fetching low 30k...

Pretty close.

hmm not bad. 30k miles in 2 years.

that's a pretty good deal, but doubt the wife would actually want a taurus even if it was an sho. just think in 10 years a mustang will still be a mustang, but a taurus of any level will be that, just a taurus and nothing exciting or special. of course w/o a warranty left you could up the boost and make it much more fun i bet
