Stopped by O'Reilly and tester said battery dead. Replaced it and all is fine now!
wow... you have a 2013 and it died on you already? How many miles on her? Do you drive her in winter? I've had mine since fall/winter of 2012, and batter is still good/in the green.

Just did my 6th oil change & filter. The motor seems to be less noisy at idle, since I switched back to Motorcraft oil & filter. I was using Mobil 1 for awhile.

I drive it year round and have 67,000 miles on it.

And while it is a 2013, I ordered it and took delivery in June 2012 so the battery was 4 years old.

Ya it did take me a while to finally post a video of it.
0-60 mph comes up in 3.8 seconds. About .6-.8 seconds faster than what magazines were getting out of a stock 2010 GT500 back in the day.
The key is to roll into the throttle in 1st and 2nd. If you go full throttle you just spin the tires badly.

Yesterday I took a cloverleaf onramp at almost full limit of the tires. I didn't have the ***** to look down at the speedo because the front tires were screetching ever so slightly and I didn't want to make any wrong moves. Felt like my insides were about to rip out!! GT with Brembo package and lowering springs can pull some G's for sure!!!

Took my daughter out for steak at Texas Roadhouse for her birthday. I parked by another Mustang but unfortunately only one of us knows how to park correctly.

Purchased a 2014 oxford white GT 6spd "Track Pack" has brembo's, 3.73 gears, 275 wide rear tires, recaro seats and the rest of the things. Has 25k miles.

This is my first mustang (been many in my family, but this is the first one ive owned)

Today i filled it up with 91 octane and took a drive in the mountains during a good rain.

Got back from my drive and removed the front plate bracket, then ordered oxford white bumper plugs.
