April, Did you buy another V-6? What happen to the Gt idea?
Congrats but you let me down, just knew that GT/CS was going home with you.
Great choice of color.

Here are the differences I have noticed in one day:
1) Eleanor is faster off the line. I hear he would beat me at 1/4 mile.
2) Its been almost a decade since I drove a stick. Getting off a Hill is a again.
3)They drive identical at 5th gear. Its like being in my car- can't tell a difference.
4) The Non Shaker sounds almost as good as the shaker, I can't tell a difference. Except for having more cds.
5) The manual gets better mileage- IE: We both had full tanks of gas, and drove identical places. Eleanor has less gas now. No gunning a stick.
6)That Tungsten is a BEAUTIFUL color.
7) Why is there no RDS on a 2006 stereo? I got an 06 model on my third shaker replacement, and it also doesn't have it.
8)I think it looks neat without a spoiler, he hates it. I like it without stripes.
9) His mustang is child free.No hotwheels or teen magazines in the backseat of his. Also no lipstick in the cupholder.
Other than that- WOW WOW WOW. I am in Mustang Heaven. I thought I was in mustang heaven with just ONE mustang......but two.......
Our trade in was a total POS. We haven't driven it in months. We went to go drive it, and I think the alternator was going out- all the lights came on, and it started going JERK JERK......... EEK! We got it there and got it out of our lives though!

IT. Ok, so I have trouble finding third. I give him that. Then I got on a steep hill at a railroad crossing and he had made me so nervous I forgot everything he taught me.....Rollllllllllllllllllllllllllllll back. back some more, OH HELL!
VROOOOOOOOOOM as I peeled off. Got where we were going handed him the keys and said- SCREW THIS- I ain't driving with you no more!When He is not in the car I can handle a stick like no ones bidness. But Christ he made me nervous.
Leaving the ford dealer- we left Ellie there while we went out in her, he drove. He dropped me off, the salesmen knowing my mustang fever said- He let you drive yet? HELL NO! I jumped in the car made a classic burnout out of there and caught up to him to show him who was boss at the stoplight I already told you I smoked him on.
He is parking at the freaking END of the parking lot. We went to get a mount for his XM radio- I parked up front and waited ten minutes for him to trek to the front of the lot.
For the record my last stick was a 1996 Dodge Neon I got back a thousand years ago when I was young and dumb-which I traded in on the POS alero which we traded in on the new mustang.

So therefore he can

I have the best of both worlds now. The new will wear off soon enough and I can drive it. I digress, he let me drive it 11 miles the first night, but he made me so nervous I didn't do so well. I couldn't flipping wait to get back in mine yesterday and take her for a spin.
Its Funny, I have noticed SO many differences between mine and his.
I have different chimes. For door, seatbelt and lights.
His steering wheel has a little ridge on it, mine doesn't.
And last night when I was locking it up, I shut the door and the lights flashed on and off when I locked it.
I can't really tell a difference in the Non shaker sound either.
My Auto is faster off from a dead stop than his, but his is faster once it gets going.
