My advice then is too...........

I don't have cable :( Most things are free to watch online so I figured it was a good cost saving measure!
No pun intended I suppose. lmao.........another "form or function" solution to bordem. Problematically vehicle ownership cost thousands.................. no free rides here.

Yes, I strongly feel this way about the Mustang...

Umm I don't know maybe where it was on the concept car (drivers rear quarter panel). There are a lot of things from the concept car I miss, the steering wheel is not one of them.

Haha yeah, well it was my 1972 mercury comet that had a big round gas cap on the back that didn't have a lock on it. I miss those days.

Now I just drive up to the pump, and remember it's on the other side so have to swirl around.

Hey have you guys heard about all the tranny issues the new 5.0 has been having? Shit is crazy. Ford won't even warranty some because they claim that the cars are being raced/driven hard. I guess they would have to though, to keep up with some of us.

I would have thought muscle cars are built to drive hard.........well hold up to being driven hard...hence muscular and I'm not nearly as shocked as I would have been less recently..........but in all fairness. The entire automotive playing field by their own admittance is obviously in a mess on the design & engineering side of things " Form over Function" failures abound, all in the name to supposively save a quarter, the madness and greed, its running amuck.

Seriously, it's ridiculous. I know they're the enemy, but these poor guys can't even enjoy their cars. Also, forget about even the tiniest mod (short throw shifter), Ford will void warranty over the smallest thing.

Actually, I kinda like the fuel door on the pass. Side. I don't have to wait in line at the pump any more since 90% of everyone else is on the drivers side. I just wish it wasnt just barely hanging there on that flimsy plastic hinge...

Well if it was on the back you wouldn't have to deal with any of that....

I drove a Camaro SS with the new steering wheel and it is much better; more comfortably and looks nicer on the Camaro then the thick semi-truck looking of previous Camaros.
