I live in coastal Rhode Island where we get little snow. I bought a Mazda cx50 for those days when there is snow, or when the roads still have salt on them. Plus, having the cx50 allows me more cargo space than my convertible along with room for a dog. I also try to get out with the GT once or...
I looked through posts and could not find anything on this particular subject.
I am in the middle of buying a Mazda CX50 both for winter driving and to have a more "practical" vehicle for year-round use. I live by the ocean in RI, and we don't get much snow. I have a space in a covered garage...
Living in RI I need (want) a car/suv that I could drive in the snow, but I knew this going in. Fortunately, I'm retired and have the resources to buy such a vehicle, in this case a Mazda CX50 turbo - that will fill that nitch. Plus, it is a more practical year-round vehicle.
I know that not...
That was one of the reasons I went Auto. Taking that into account my $1795 upgrade cost me only $1000 since there was no GG tax. All the manuals must have been without stop/start since they all showed a GG on the sticker. Plus, although 6-speeds may be more fun, I've had that fun in many cars I...
I have experience with this. So, you can fit two golf bags in the back, as long as they're not tour bags - think Rodney in CaddyShack. I find that if you slide the top of the golf bag heads first into the left side of the trunk it makes it pretty easy. And to make it even easier, take your...
I am currently looking for a winter ride since I won't take the GT out once a snowflake falls. It will be in an unheated parking garage but will not be exposed to the elements - other than the cold. I also plan on starting/driving it when the roads are clear of salt or anything nasty, so it does...
Bought mine 3/15/24 and just crossed 10K. Pretty much all highway. Put a lot of miles on it driving from RI to VT to see the eclipse on 4/8. Convertible was perfect for viewing.
Yes, 522 pages. I see the Australian website is only HTML. Here is the USA link. I'm assuming it is very similar, you just need to read some of it using a mirror. :wink: Obviously, a lot to print but a ream of paper is less than $10. 2024 Ford Mustang Owner Manuals
I basically live on the highway with my S650 convertible and keep the top up due to the wind.
I have nothing to report on any resonance or vibration, and driving at 75mph I've reached 28.5mpg.
When I told a friend I bought my GT off the showroom floor, he said he would never do that since so many people have probably sat in it an screwed around with it. My answer was that all the Mustangs outside had just gone through a New England winter, and I rather buy a car that was stored at 70F...
I'm a newbie and could not find a good explanation of the Speed Limiter. I am wondering if this was engaging on my GT. It hasn't' happed in a while, but when I hit the gas at a low speed, the car would not pick up speed. I let up and tried again and then it would move.
A relatively new member, I was going through some photos and found these. But these are closer to the end of the story than the beginning. I met my wife in 1985. Our connection was a love of cars. She had a brand-new GT with the 5-speed, the last with a carburetor, I believe. It was grey with...
