So if the Mustang is for better gas mileage, how does paying the extra for gas with your truck compare to insurance policies doubled, maintenance bills doubled and you still gotta put gas in the Mustang?
More power to you dude, creative financing works, but don't kid yourself, the "saving gas money over the truck" argument might fly with the old lady, but we all know you want that 5.0L tire smoker in the driveway. lol

Owner's manual recommends 87 octane for the 5.0. Actually, it would be interesting to know why.
Insurance wasn't a problem for me. The cost is the same as my '02 Concorde. The insurance rep said that many new cars are costing less now because of the improved safety features. Their biggest cost isn't car repair, it's the medical claims from injury. Always best to call your insurance and get a quote before making any assumptions.
