I just picked up my long awaited Mustang GT from the dealer just a mere 7 hours ago. While putting the first 60 miles on the car, I realized that the turn signal sounds like the galloping horseshoes of a horse. Am I just nuts, or does anyone else think so ? Just another cool secret feature of the new Mustang !!!!!!!

Gosh, this car is freakin' awesome !!!

 

Congrats on the new car. Enjoy it!

I'm not so sure I am feeling ya on the galloping horse/turn signal thing though.

Ok, so maybe it's more like a trot............

 

Alright I can go with that

Now, when do we get to see some pic's of your new baby!

Time to show off a little.

 

My 8 yr old daughter commented on that on our 1st day with our 05 mustang... I never would have thought of it until she mentioned it....

 

Does she whinny when you start 'er up too?

Congratulations on your new car! Have fun and post some pix when you can. :rock:

 

YEP....I've thought the same thing...sounds like a a little gallop! Congrats on your new pony!!

 

Congrats!! Time to saddle her up get out on the road. Give her a banana for me. Oh wait a minute, horses like apples

 

I thought it was just Ford capturing the retro theme by having the similar turn signal sound of the old Mustangs.

 

I looking forward hearing some horse sounds, thanks for the tip.

 

i think it sounds like a bubble popping! so do my friends. lol

 

Sorry, the turn signal click is exactly the same sound as my sons 03 Focus. It was the first thing he mentioned when he took a ride.

 

Yep. It sounds just like the focus. Interesting to note, that the turn signal sound on the focus and mustang are electronic reproductions from a speaker. The sound is not mechanically created, like in days past.

 

Yep... first thing I thought as well. And I've been listening to that focus blinker for a while.

But I can see where you might think it sounds like a horse trotting.

 

Signal sound is annoying, maybe the reason most people don't signal to change lanes.

That sound was also the first complaint by my wife and my daughter. Guess I didn't really notice. This comes from a speaker? Is that true? If so, where is that bad boy so I can stick some cotton in the thing!

 

Here are the pics folks....................Just go here http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?showtopic=20817

 

I definitely noticed the sound of the turn signal when I did the test drive, didn't connect it to a "gallop" at the time, but I see your point.

I didn't think I'd like the pseudo-retro lights and sounds of the new dash, but it seems I do.

 

Those are some sweet pic's. Love em'

Nice cars

Nick

 

REALLY ?? geez mine sounds like a snapple bottle cap, click click, click click

:angry:
