How many years did you hold a subscription? Everything out of that mag was for the sole purpose of selling magazines. I was heavy in my Mustang phase at that point. Thank GOD I broke out of it. That magazine is garbage. I wouldn't wipe my ass with it. Show me a PI 99-04 GT on stock internals running high boost and making over 550 to the wheels while being flogged daily on pump gas with no E85 or meth injection. That was just one of the bullshit articles I read. And trust me, there are plenty more of that caliper. I wouldn't believe MM&FF at midnight if they told me it was dark outside. They are FOS to a degree that I never witnessed before. Take every YT comment promoting a Mustang, exaggerate it to the 10th degree, and then make up a complete BS story around it and that is every article you'll read in that mag. |

Writer for MM&FF. Says it all right there. Hotrod knew it was BS but they probably printed it to make sales. |

To go further. GM had the tech to go DFI for the 16 MY. You think Ford didn't have it for the year earlier (2015 Mustangs) when it was in the EBs? WHy didn't Ford go ahead and put it in the GT? Because they milked the fans and figured they'd give them a slight boost so they could say "ooh, my heavier 2015 GT has an extra 15 HP which is 9 HP more than the 15 SS". Although it was the same performance in the quarter mile despite the magical bump. And also because they wanted to keep costs down so cheap ass MFers could buy lackluster GTs after being turned down for the better performing SS. So now they finally decide to throw DFI and up the CR and other things (which costs money) to the GT because sales alone aren't going to matter when the GT keeps getting slain by the SS. And the price goes up. And it still loses. So here comes the Bullitt a few months after the GT. Because they knew good and well that the GT would not beat the SS in the quarter mile. They had that Bullitt engine for a while now. But. Milk more money out of the idiots. Make them pay for that extra 15 hp on a PP1 platform. So now to get a GT that matches the SS you gotta pay Bullitt money and that is just for straight line performance. The Bullitt will get destroyed on a track. And then take 2 years to come up with something to answer to the ZL1 and the fanboys will hoot and holler instead of wondering WTF they didn't do this sooner. They had DFI and boost tech down already. Why not do this in 2015 or 2016 instead of the GT350 and GT350R which both got their asseskicked spectacularly? Because they continue to milk these guys out of their money. GT. Then the GT PP. Then the Bullit. Then the GT PP2. And then the GT500. All years late. WTF?

![]() They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this one does all the talking. I cross shopped the Mustang vs the Camaro. I tend to agree with your opinion. In the Mustang you sit as if you would in almost any other car, higher, more upright, which isn't necessarily bad. In the Camaro, the seating position is lower, and gives it more of a sport car feel. And to your point, part of the reason I liked the Camaro, is because of the cockpit. I've even commented to my wife that I feel like I'm sitting in a space ship when I'm in the Camaro. However, that is specifically what I was looking for. Most people will find the Mustang more livable because it's easier to get in and out of, and has somewhat more space. I just valued the performance metrics more in my search, others may not. Quote:

Because some of you seem to have a reading comprehension issue, see in bold below.
The quote that was referenced was in response to Lund’s A10 run. It’s crazy some of you don’t understand the difference between a manual and auto transmission. |
