Well... I couldn't pass up the 0% financing from Ford. I just traded in the old man mobile (Ford 500) for a brand new Mustang GT convertible Premium. Man this car is just what I needed to make me feel young again. Not that I don't love the Ridge, but the Mustang fills a completely different void. Now I have the size and utility of the Ridge and the power and performance of the Mustang. I think I have found my nirvana. I pulled my NAV/DVD out of the 500 and I anticipate having it in the Ridge soon, with the addition of a flipdown dvd for the kids in the back. Can someone recommend an economical, yet quality, flipdown unit? I would like it to be at least a 9 inch screen. The wife doesn't know it yet but the mods will be starting soon on the Mustang. I know you all probably don't care about a Ford product, but I wanted to share.

Congratulations. The 2005 is Todd's dream. As soon as I can get him to part with his Exploder, he'll drive a silver Mustang too.
Have fun and drive safe. :)

LR,
This car is an absolute blast to drive. Just turn off the traction control and punch it. I can see a new set of tires in my very near future.

PRO,
I am already starting to ponder all of the performance upgrades. I am starting out with the cold air intake, then probably exhaust. I am new to the domestic tuning scene so it will take me a while to learn what I should do. How about some advice and recommendations. I am not trying to make a complete dragster out of it, but I would like to give it a little extra.
