No offense, but just curious if there is another website that is more inline w/ the Fox-body Mustangs/5.0's. I love this website for the 05 and newer info/discussions, but it seems pretty slow for the older cars.
Thanks,
Bucky

Corral.net use to be pretty busy. Stangnet stays busy as well, but it is kind of like the kindergarten of the mustang world.

The fox talk has dried up even on this site in the last few months. And for the record, the 5.0 will never die.

There's still plenty of 5.0 guys and girls around, just not as much to discuss as with the S197 cars. As Scott said, the Fox will never die!!

I've been out of town....but compared to the Corral or Stangnet I'd take a slower paced site like this with more quality than deal with some of the garbage I have seen on other sites.....quality is better than quantity

i agree, there just not as much new stuff to talk about as with the 05+ and this was founded as an 05 dedicated site anyway. i like being able to come and chat about our cars w/o the unneccessary foul language and stupidness

Welcome to the site man, and as stated earlier its about quality over quantity here. Ask a question and you get some real intelligent answers, not like some of the half-baked crap you find on other sites. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

O yeah, get some pics up of your 5.0 if you can!

I'm a die hard V8 guy, I used to be a complete biast Ford V8 or go home kinda guy (when i first joined) but that attitude wasn't getting me anywhere so we've all calmed down and we only post in this section when we have real issues anymore, the 05 section is one of those "My power seat won't go back or forth, what could be the problem?" Me- "operator" Theirfore i don't post in that area too often, lol.
