New 2011 Mustang

A few videos . . .

Niki leaving this morning in the Mustang for an errand.

We still have not taken a bunch of pictures.  Maybe tomorrow.

The rig is a 2011 Ford Mustang GT - Kona Blue with a Saddle Tan leather interior.  It has a 6-speed stick, a 3.31 rear end, and 412 horsepower out of a 5.0L 32v V8   This car is very, very fast.  It is also green - it gets 26 mpg, 3 more than my old Mustang with 260 horsepower got.  On the inside, it has a 500 watt stereo (essentially the same on my old Ford had), and Sync, complete with voice-activated-Bluetooth.  When I picked it up at the dealership, I had to sit through Sync training, which took just about an hour.  Wow.  You need an advanced degree just to operate the radio . . .

We drove my old, trusty Ford Mustang GT for 131,000 miles over 9 years, and thoroughly enjoyed it.  We will miss the old Ford.  This new Mustang has big horseshoes to fill.

Sync rocks. I can't buy a car that doesn't have it again.
