That kind of goes along with what the technician told me from a local aftermarket shop. He is familiar with past Mustang stereos (Shaker500, Mach460) and seems to think that once a subwoofer and amp are added to the trunk then I will most likely be content. If not then I suppose the door speakers would be next.

Yes, that is crazy.
I have the HD radio option and I can say that it has the overall best sound quality over everything else (ie. CD, satellite radio)

I can say for certain that, after driving one, a 3.73 equipped Coyote doesn't feel lifeless down low when compared to a 3.31 equipped Coyote, which are the gears my 2011 5.0L feature. The power down low was so nice that I'm considering a gear swap; though, my fuel economy will likely drop as a result. Oh, well, the trade-off is definitely worth it, in my opinion.

To OP and Danielle, nice cars! I'm really loving the 2013's now after a bit of front end apprehension at first.
