Caught the car plotting against the mail carrier. Mustang prison at least until it FINALLY warms up.

Spring is an annoying drunken idiot this year....

Lol! I don’t use a cover in the garage. California car Duster every couple of weeks. Spray detail as needed.

Don't worry. I closed the door. The bad car can’t hurt them.

Do you like your Mustang? I am considering buying one to replace my Cavalier. How do you think it measures up to the extremely high standards I have come to expect from driving a Cavalier?

I dig it. For me it’s a toy though; meaning nice weather cruiser and drag strip car. In the 11 years I’ve had it, I think I’ve taken it to work about 10-12 times.

For me it would be a DD, unless I pump another 600-700 into the Cavalier. I might if I can afford it. It needs a new winshield ($300) and an out of province ($200). Ugh. I hate red tape~

The 4.6 3v is a reliable motor. I installed the supercharger at around 5500 miles and haven’t looked back.

The alternators are utter crap. Apparently getting a 2010 spec Denso brand alternator is a great way to alleviate this. They were none available when I had to replace my original.... at 19,400 miles. Diode burned. I attribute part of its early death to the blower putting added strain on it. Whether or not this actually is the case, I’m not entirely sure.

Another problem. The stock panhard rod. I replaced it with a Watts link at 12k miles. The rod was bent. Keep in mind that I do not do road course racing. I drag race. Straight line. I’ve done spirited driving on twisty roads, but nothing nuts.

A lot of people have issues with the door panel inserts coming unglued. I have the base interior. No inserts to worry about.
