Don't have a Mustang YET but ordered a 2011 V6 convertible last week.
This will be the third new convertible I have owned. First was a 1963 Triumph
Spitfire (1147 CC ) then a 2001 Miata and now a Mustang. I am really looking
forward to it.
I also own a 2005 Honda Gold Wing for even more air in the face.
Also looking forward to meeting new friends on this site.

Undercover Ponies.
No Mustang yet...worried about the 4.6 litres...
Got a '99 Grand Marquis and '00 Continental.
The '99 is running a stock 4.6L 2V and waiting for a police pack donor.
The '00 is running a 4.6L 4V. Looks like a sleeper till I peel off the paint of those annoying little rice burners.
I'm on here looking for advice on the 4.6Litre's Engine knock, or Ping.
Both Fords do it. It's driving me crazy! Can't figure it out. Had the computers reset to run on regular at a local dealership. Tried fuel injector cleaners...nothing. Both do it under light load, up hills, with the AC or in very hot weather. Both cars seem to be cooling properly. Looking to change fuel filters. Some say timing too advanced others tell me the timing chains are the problem.

Well I finally got a car. It is not the one I ordered. Delivery on that one was sometime in November. So I looked on a lot of dealer web sites and found a race red convertble with all the things I wanted. The dealer I started with looked after everything and I picked the car up 60 miles from home.
The Mustang came with me to Arizona for the winter.
Hope my photos come through.

Pictures came through just fine dude - good looking combo you've got there, 'grats on the new convertible. Your F150 is earning it's money hauling the Goldwing and the trailer - loaded for bear and heading south!! Enjoy!
