I have never owned a Pony with anything other than a 5/6 speed but if I did go auto more gears is certainly alright for the obvious reasons

They got to get good fuel economy some how LOL!! I'm just wondering why it's taken this long to do so. Auto manufactures have been behind with their transmissions for sometime know. We should've seen minimum....the 6 speed auto, and stick in cars by the late 80's early 90's, but then again, the fuel prices were not so high then!!!

I always look forward to new models and I'm ok with an 8 speed auto but the 2015 model is making me nervous. It seems to be very un-Mustang.

21 speed! Now you're talking. LOL, could you imagine a 21 speed manual transmission Mustang. No thanks - stop at a 6 speed Ford.
