Thank you Ford, for getting these cars shipping!

I think it's time for some thanks to whoever lit the fire under Ford's rearend and got these 2011 Mustangs cleared out. Most of you guys will have received your cars by the end of the month and the long wait will be over. Here's to your new rides! Enjoy them and may they be problem-free for the remainder of your ownership experience. It's been a rough ride, and even though I won't be joining you in new Mustang ownership just yet, I'm happy for you guys (and gals Christie and and Antigini) and hope everything works out for you.

Here's to one of the longest running nameplates in automotive history, and one of the best Mustangs ever!

Crap it double posted. I accidentally hit submit b4 I was done. Oh well, mods please merge with the other one! I added all the smileys!

And yes, I'm glad we haven't seen a break in Mustang history, and I hope we never do!

I kind of like it. It looks like it would make an excellent city car: inexpensive, fuel efficient, and (reportedly) even a little bit fun to drive. If I wanted an economy car, I'd buy a Fiesta before I'd buy a hybrid.

I'd buy a used Mini Cooper before I spent that much on a Fiesta.

It's got nice fuel economy specs and it's pretty cheap compared to say our Mustangs, but meh, I intend to just use my 5.0 as my daily driver.

I've driven the Fiesta and a used base Mini. You'd be crazy.

MINI is consistently near the bottom in quality, down there with VW, Suzuki, and Land Rover. Fiesta will likely be much better.

I like the Fiesta. Hopefully Ford will come out with an EcoBoost version in another year.
