Just wanted to say that I to like Mustangs; not for their engineering, or their looks, but for what they are. I like renting a V6 mustang every now an then they just feel good to drive.

And guys remember that the majority of mustangs sold ARE v6 they were and still are a young adults car, low initial cost and low insurance are KEY for this market segment.

My advise for Improved MPG

1) SGII Watch it; and you will learn quickly (ALso setup a trip mpg xgauge)
2) at least consider replacing the factory air box
3) Pump tires up to max sidewall
4) consider blocking some of that lower grill.
5) Don't worry about it to much; if you wanted great MPG you would drive a metro, don't worry about enjoying the car every now and then (in moderation).
