Mustang Enthusiast and Mustang Times are my favorites. The others seems to focus too much on drag racing.

I agree with the drag racing issue but MM&FF has alot of normal cars that they do "before and after" projects on. Not a complete project car but changing headers on a car, exhaust on another, throttle bodies on another. Besides, I haven't even seen Mustang Enthusiast or Mustang Times or I might change my mind.

Mustang Enthusiast is a pretty new magazine. They have great articles and monthly columns from SVT and Team Mustang. Mustang Times is free with your membership in the Mustang Club of America.

I like MM & FF a little more than 5.0 just because they have more late model stangs and not many 'Hard On Drag Cars.'

I agree with you Brad there to much drag racing in 5.0 and MM&FF I like see more of the carshow pics then Drag racing pics.


You see Brad in Aug 04 Mustang and Ford Trader on pg 49 my 03 Mach1 is in it.


I'am kinda upset with MM&FF & 5.0 because they didn't write to much about Mach1s at the 40th and they didn't write that we, Mach1 owners Club had 147 2003-04 Mach1s total at the 40th Anniv. show in Nashville, all they write was about the Bullitts the Bullitt Club had 90 Bullitts we,Mach1 Owners Club had 147 Mach1 we beat the Bullitts bad at the show.

I'm not surprised MM&FF leads the pack so far. They are current and manage to squeak the best times out of road test cars. Though I do feel as though it is as much a catalog as it is a magazine.

That said, I have to vote for Mustang & Fords barely edging out Mustang Monthly. They really have their pulse on all things Ford as well as the modified classic. I am more likely to run into the kinds of cars that interest me (restomod and full-on modified classics) in M&F. Plus, it's cool to see a hot rodded Merc, or Ranchero, or Fairlane, etc.

OT-Sorta- 'Hemmings Muscle Machines' Magazine is great at showing Mercs, Fairlanes, and various cool/rare Muscle cars. (Though they did have a Shelby GLH is last months issue, which I thought was a little odd . . . but still cool.)

MM&FF for now but Mustang Enthusiast seems pretty good and might move to the top of my list after I see a few more issues.
