Well I've been living there almost 3 years now. Haven't done anything else to it. In just 27 more years it's mine

Bought my oldest a 2013 V6 last year. Black of course. This year she's off to college so I'm down to 5 kids at home. So I've got that going for me.

Hey all!

I'm thinking of throwing on a set of Borla Stingers on my 08. That is all.

To the Bullet guy about oil. I am old (70) and been building engines for decades, was a fleet manager for a city (cop cars, ambulance, fire trucks, public works vehicles) and have been Hot Rodding motors since the 60's. I agree with switching to a heavier oil but NOT 10w 30! Use 5w 30 as the CNC machining used on factory new engines creates closer tolerances and Cold Startup with 10w could cause problems, but the 30w will help as the engine heats up. I called Ford when we got the very first cop cars with the 5w20 mark on the filler cap...and NOBODY had it! The Ford guy told me they were shipping it ASAP but do not use heavier oil. I am an ASE certified mechanic, the charter president of the Dallas Area Street Rods and my cars have won at the Dallas and Ft. Worth Autorama. Back in the 60's I raced at Green Valley (now gone) and I now have a 65 Mustang and 67 Sunbeam. I build my own motors and oil must be matched to the clearance built into the engine. I am new to this site so forgive me if I am speaking out-of-turn.

Hey! I'm not on the forums as much as I used to be so I was hoping one of you might be able to guide me in the right direction. Have any of you seen a clean iPad integration on the Mustang? I saw a couple on Youtube but they don't look very clean and they require aftermarket amps and what not. I was hoping one of you might have stumbled across a solution that works with the stock setup or requires very few aftermarket parts. TIA!

Ah that you do. Check out soundmanca.com. I'm planning an iPad mini install in my 05 Escape (has the same 2 din opening as 05-09), using one of the Sound Man mount. I'm going to basically sink in my current Alpine head unit behind the mount, so I still have a CD player and AM/FM, but for the most part I'll use the iPad mini for my music and navi.
