Gauge needles bounce on key turn?
Do any models have the tach/rpm needles bounce all the way through when the key is put in?

I feel like ive seen this on a stang before, but my 2013 v6 premium doesnt do this.

When my past Mustangs have done that, it was telling me I needed to replace the battery.

All the gauges sweep when you turn the key on my '12, it's S.O.P.

Yep, bit like the 2010 traction control button that originally had a Mustang rear end piccie that only lasted a few years before being replaced with a generic logo.

Those little things make a BIG difference

That's all that matters. You like it. -- I was just wondering if there was something additional that the car had if that feature was on it.
