Not trying to toot the mustang horn, but realistically this could be a simple wheel alignment issue.

Nope. They have had this problem since the S550 launched. Even in their documentary A Faster Horse they talk about vibration issues and bad driveshafts.

Apparently all these issues that were supposed to have been fixed are instead becoming worse. The car is just a piece of shit. Plain and simple.

Incentives in Feb are not very good. I might wait till March to see if they improve if I don't buy something else or just keep my C7.
I was in the same boat. Bought from Criswell Chevrolet in Northern MD. ˜10% off MSRP.

Mine was ok but I regret buying it. If I knew beforehand everything about it that I learned after I got it then I would not have bought it at all. You can't get them with a sunroof, only convertible or hardtop. The hardtop doesn't have anywhere near the amount of suspension mods that the hardtop has so you're stuck with the lame stock handling characteristics. You have to mod the hell out of it and void the warranty just to get it to keep up with the competition. Never again.

I love that you can't get a sunroof in the Mustang. I hate sunroofs hahaha. Trying to find a nicely optioned car with out a sun roof is damn near impossible lol

I shopped the Camaro, Mustang and Challanger before buying my 2017 2SS. Was never really a fan of the looks of the new car even before the hideous refresh for 2018 but that is personal preference. What really turned me off was the way the car makes power. The Cars I drove were all 2017 Autos so the 10 Speed wasn't available.

All of the cars I drove felt slow because of the way the 5.0 makes power. All of the power is in the upper RPM so you'd stab it, wait, wait, wait then it would finally start to pull.

The Camaro and Challangers both make power down low so they "feel" fast right from the start which is what I enjoy. Stab the gas and hold on.

Again, Can't comment on the 10 speed but I know I hate the styling even more than the 2017 cars. Only thing you can do is drive them back to back and see what works for you.

i drove all three myself (except i actually drove an 18 gt with a 10 speed auto) and honestly i wasn't that impressed with the mustang. honestly the 10 speed didn't feel game changing at all. in fact i felt the a8 in the 18 camaro shifted better and was better at picking gears.

ended up buying an 18 2ss because as close as everything else was for me the handling was in a different class all together.
