Why (not) the Ford Mustang

   For years people everywhere have been looking at the Ford Mustang and wondering why?.. or why not?  Well I'm going to give you some pros and cons of Ford's awesome machine. 

Pros:  

1.   The powerful engines, no matter if you have a V-8 or a V-6, you will have plenty enough power.  Even the stock V-6 draws enough to satisfy most driving enthusiasts, at 305 horsepower and 280 foot pounds of torque, the 3.7L V-6 has enough to propel it from a cold standstill to 60 miles an hour in just 5.4 seconds and does all this with 31 mpg on the highway.  Now, jumping up to the Mustang GT, the 5.0L V-8 kicks out 420 Horses and 390 foot pounds of torque, this beast goes 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds leaving you strapped to your seat.  The boss 302 is nice as well, but was only brought back for two years (2012-2013), this 5.0L V8 is known for 444 horsepower and 390 foot pounds of torque.  Fast enough? NO! didn't think so!   In the very powerful Shelby GT500, is a beautiful 5.8L supercharged V-8 that throws out an army of 662 horses and 631 foot pounds of torque, did I mention it has a top speed of 200 mph!!
2. Steering: The mustang might be powerful, but it isn't just fast, she's also light on her feet and can take fast fun turns and stops quicker than most.  The mustang really shines on those long-curvy old country back roads, the steering is fast and responsive, which makes this vehicle tons of fun!  I prefer the manual transmission, you get the most horsepower from your engine and is a lot more fun than the automatic.
3.  Miles per gallon: The V6 makes 305 horsepower and has an amazing acceleration time, it also has an EPA estimated 31 mpg on the highway and 23 in the city you cant argue with that.  Now, the GT has a lot of power and the more power equals less Miles to the gallon.  The GT 5.0L makes 420 horsepower with 25 mpg on the highway with 18 in the city, not really good for an everyday driver.  The superb Shelby GT500 is by far the most powerful of the models, it lacks gas mileage, with 14 mpg in the city and about 20 on the highway, the Shelby is an ideal choice for adrenaline junkies, but not for the everyday person on the go. 
4. Customization: The Ford Mustang is the worlds most customizable car, there are so many choices to choose from, such as: performance packages, rims, exhaust systems and stylish upgrades.
5. Exterior:  It goes with out saying that the exterior is stunning.  Its mean-rock em' sock em' look will intimidate everyone, and get you right with the ladies.     

Cons:

1. Low-quality interior materials:  I'm only putting this in here because I know some people don't enjoy the Mustang's unique interior, yes I agree there are some things inside the Mustang that I don't practically like, such as the back seat...they shouldn't even put a backseat in these things, they're way to small.  Another thing is the hard plastic on the door, why not make it like the dash and have soft-touch material.  But all in all the interior has a fun young side and a strong business man structure. 
2. Steering wheel:  I love the design of the steering wheel the only thing that sucks is the wheel doesn't telescope, I'm a big man and I don't really need it to, but when I'm trying to lay back and drive I cant do it.
3. Complicated sync system:  This feature takes some getting used to, its complicated while going down the road, thankfully the 2015 Mustang will fix this. 

  Guys if your wondering if you should buy a mustang, the answer is yes, its a great car for beginners and professionals.  I don't recommend getting one until your about 25 years old because the insurance will kill you, all in all, this car has had 50 great years under its belt and is getting better by the year... I hope for another 50.
