Ya Mustangs take a big hit after leaving the lot. I had a 14 GT for about 8 months and took a 10k hit on trade in.

I think Mustangs generally have had bad residual values for some time. Camaros have been better but still remains to see how the new gen will hold up.

That hurts. I'm keeping this one so no worries of resale value anytime soon.

+1 to this.

I've actually never knew any other way to set my mirrors, so I'm somewhat shocked this is even a question. Blind spots just don't exist if you set your mirrors correctly.
