I purchased a 2013 gt with 135 miles on it in Leroy WV 25252.
I live in Hacker Valley WV 26222 (roughly 3 hrs actually a bit less in travel).
I was gonna just open trailer it home but I cant lol its just too nice.
Anybody know of someone who I can hire to haul it enclosed to 26222.

Count me in as well... Why bother going through all the hassle and expense of hauling your Mustang for just a small 120 mile road trip? You should want to enjoy that first drive in your new to you Mustang
I would Think Unless Somebody Really Spent Time Keeping the Juices Flowing this Car is Likely Needing Some Work to Be Roadworthy Again!

I was thinking the same thing Kevin. I would change all of the fluids first thing. OP, if you can, drive that baby home. Mustangs are built to drive, and enjoy.

I did the coolant and brake fluid right off the bat. Tires too. OP, drive the darn thing. My wife and I drove 850 miles back to NC from Wisconsin in our 2014 GT this past August. Just 8,900 miles on the car.
The only reason not to drive it is if you are putting it in a collection not to be driven. My elderly neighbor had a 12 car collection that was treated like a coin collection. Something to look at and not touch. I get it if that is your thing. If not, it's a short drive and it will be fun, even on the original rubber. The only other reason is the salt/ grit they put on the roads this time of year. Enjoy your new ride!!
Actually other than fluid changes its ok..i have new wheels and tires anyway so someone is getting the stockers lol. I just changed all and i mean ALL lol fluids.
Its been nuts here ..we have a remodel going on then Christmas deal we have each year got canceled so i was delivering gifts all over it seemed so sorry for slow reply.
We get salt here-so i wasn't driving it in snow. I had one almost identical that was brenspeeded few years back I bought new and I promised myself if I found a clean one id buy it and do it up and keep it. Dollar for dollar mustang is best bang for buck if you want something to drive a lot. Its heres and all fluids and I mean all fluids lol are changed and a huge pile of parts are on garage floor and i ordered a 710rkit last week, Lol its on ! Im a car nut I sold my last one to finish my 33 ford which went on to be the srx series pace car. Then I built another 33 sold it. Then i went through a 7 challenger phase one was a redeye .The supercharged coyoye was best keeper and im glad I found one to suit me.
Its not ending its only just began. I have it and its received all fluids new even that nasty dual clutch fluid with additive i showered in lol. I sold another project and ordered a 710 r and a bunch of goodies. You are a ford guy. Let me ask you this I wanna runna Weld Laguna 18x8s all around a square setup will 30mm offset fit wouth major poke.
I have a vision legend 5 wheel thats 18x8.5 plus 32 and they look like they will poke out a lil. Im hoping welds will work I ordered one to test with.
