Great 👍 Car
By PetesREcoBoost | on 4/13/2026 5:09:11 PM
I've only had mine about a month everything's been great I love the car the one thing is the gas mileage it's not getting the suggested gas mileage range I'm averaging under 20 miles a gallon and I'm not driving fast all my driving is Street driving besides that the car is great if you're thinking of getting one just do it. The low gas mileage maybe because it's still in the break-in period 🤔… - 5.0
2024 Mustang GT base model is a bargain!
By Mustangs Rock | on 7/1/2025 4:43:04 AM
Purchased brand new Dec. 2024. It was a special order for a customer that finally couldn't wait any longer. Their loss my gain! Was the Vapor Blue I was in love with, had active exhaust and 10 speed auto . Would have liked and ordered the upgraded stereo but 6 speakers is fine especially since I enjoy listening to the 5.0 coyote better. The ride is very smooth and comfortable for a 4000 lb pony car. The 4th gen coyote is quite the upgrade from the previous gen 5.0 in My 19 F-150 but is comparing apples to oranges. Main 13.2 screen is a bit slow loading but very visable even in the bright Az sun. My 4th Mustang, first car in 1974 was a 65 Mustang. I am a bit biased being from Michigan and a lifelong ford man, except late 70s thru the early 20s when I was a import car guy. Mustang Gts Rock!!!… - 5.0
Dream car
By Paul B | on 6/11/2025 1:30:40 AM
I am ecstatic with the purchase of my 2024 Mustang GT premium. It’s even better than I dreamed it would be with the six speed manual transmission. Owning a Mustang GT was a bucket list item and I can happily say I have now checked out off my list!…
