cheap performance cars. Focus's are going for over $25,000. Mustangs are still a cheap performance car. I wouldnt want my mustang to be a girls car. They a rwd performance car, not an audi with 4 doors. soild axle, stick shift and hp. Maybe u just shouldnt be a mustang owner?
i like when the ball joints fall out or the plastic dash cracks apart. I hope u have good look. From my experence they are cheaply made junk, like the rest of mopar. Hope u have better luck.
Like I said, shifting-wise I can get through all the gears. I am just tired of people glorifying the transmission and saying it shifts like "butter". I know what mustangs shifts like and in no way or form did I say I was expecting it to shift mega smooth.
Coming from Euro and japanese cars, I decided to go into the american market to get away from the almighty I am better than you because I owned many "insert make here" before. I thought it was only in ricer forums, but I guess if it gives you an E-hardon to look down on us 1st time owners so be it. I enjoy my car and I respect the members on the forums who actually provide useful information.

not to mention slow as dog piss from a roll. i just test drove one with 72,000 miles and it was ****ing ROUGH! The dash was cracked, all the buttons on the inside were flaked off, the leather seats were worn out, the brembo brakes were dead as hoffa(and the caliper paint was peeling), rear end whine and clunks that made a metal art shop jealous, and the leather on the steering wheel was flaking off. oh, and i forgot to mention the amount of rust on bottom of that jeep...maybe it thought it was a jeep wranger when it came off the assembly line???
drive what you want man but those jeeps are pure ****ing junk. i have a scion xb as a DD that I use for my business and it has twice the amount of miles and looks brand new.
i have a 2012 stang GT and this trans is nothing short of excellent. having owned audi's, infiniti's etc I can tell you it's the best trans I have experienced. i like it more than the T56 that was in my old Z06.
if guys are abusing it and it's blowing up and having issues is that really fords fault? they built the trans to handle the stock hp and if your going over that then it's fair game.
You mean to tell me that these SRT/8 jeeps don't have 10X the issues the new stangs have? Rear ends explode at idle I have read!
Relax. Go take a pill. I've been a Mustang lover since my dad’s 1967 Fastback. I know they are the most bang for the buck. I just wonder why they would bring back the legendary 5.0, keep the outdated but reliable live rear axle but put an unproven outsourced manual transmission between the two.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol::lol:
There is nothing "legendary" about the current 5.0 it is a totally different engine from the 5.0 of the past. if you were a real mustang guy you would know this and not even think about the comparison let alone actually say it.
Funny... EVERY site I am on tries that one. Mods have even come out stating we are different people to get them to shut up. I am not going to argue about me being me.
Yup 3 out of 3; opened a case with the BBB on Friday. Will update you all when further details are available.
And I'd stop recommending the camaro to people... the car sucks. Ever driven one?
Yes, I have driven one, my daughter has one. Not a bad car, but I thought the Mustang was better.
I never said you were Matero, just very close.
I recommend you get rid of your ride and get whatever you want. Life is too short to spend a couple years fighting with something you don't want. Got a problem? Post it, heck I will read it and take it into consideration, I just think your internet terrorist routine is over the top.

thats what my issue is. why keep posting the same stuff over and over. Everyone understands if u have a problem. But to keep posting the same crap on 10000000 forums takes any credit u had away. Seems more like attention getting action.
really? you are so new to the internet you had to make TWO posts to respond to mine instead of just using the edit button?
and what question did I dodge since you posed no question in what I responded to.

Sorry that you feel I have been an 'internet terrorist'... I don't feel I have posted the same thing twice, or any lies at all. Not sure what the beef with me is out of all honesty.
I was just like you guys about my mustang; it was the best! But now I have filed for lemon law and really am just trying to enlighten people about A) How bad this drive-train really can be and B) Ford's shameful warranty tactics here.
I would be very surprised if nothing comes of this whole debacle.
And Shadow, I am on 3 boards; sorry if I am trying to get a well-rounded opinion, rather than stick to just one site.
That is all.

The bottom line is that you are one of thousands who have had the experience you describe. It comes off as a bunch of bitching/whining and we have heard it enough from jmatero.
Fact is there are thousands of owners with manual trans 2011+ Mustangs who haven't had a single issue and the community has grown very tired of the sensationalism put upon it.
I can guarantee you that TR-6060's have had as many if not more problems with shifting/breaking vs. the MT-82. You have owners of those cars who complain as well. Some get it fixed and some don't regardless of if it is a Dodge, Chevy or Ford.
Finish the Lemon Law process and move on. The community is not interested in hearing about it further.
If that's what ya want, so be it; thought this was a MT-82 thread here...
But it doesn't surprise me, you folks that have good working drive-lines just telling us others with issues to be quiet.
Hell I don't need your help here, was simply trying to ENLIGHTEN you all on the issue that you all seem to think isn't anything to bat an eye at.
LL has been filed. I'll grant you your wish, as you can't seem to stomach my posts.
Peace.
Actually SOME of the commuinty (myself and a couple other friends of mine that are F'd in this same boat included) is VERY interested in hearing about it further. Its not whining and bitching when YOUR brand new car starts with this BS, and Ford wont do anything about it except replace it with same garbage only to happen again.
Fact ALSO is that there are thousands of us 2011 mustang owners that DO have many issues.. If the owners that dont have problems (including yourself) dont want to read on the forums making people aware of the poor process Ford is putting us through then they dont need to click on that thread then do they? Glad they dont have to deal with it, and maybe you shouldnt click on this thread either now should you?? READ THE TITLE.

You post in another thread:
....and some REALLY sound advice here.....
"Go ahead and damage your trans as-much-as possible so Ford can eat it. Never mind any mods you have done that may void your powertrain warranty."
You fall into the same bitch/moan category....:bash:
my car wasnt modded when any of the trans issues came up (and still isnt modded).. the clutch, the pedal, the trans itself all failed with factory parts.
Last time I checked Ford is having everyone drive around on transmissions that have metal shavings in the fluid etc anyways, and they are going to stick it to everyone that has this trans when 60k miles comes around and you know it as well as since you have stated that they have moved on to the new Mustang and drivetrain and arent worried about this one right? So how exactly am I wrong for driving my MUSTANG GT (not ford focus) like its meant to be driven, and taking it back to have the junk parts replaced over and over until they get it right exactly?? Im not sure what your point was for posting a couple of my post's here really. Funny how many people are having the same parts fail/need replaced on them as I did in that list up there.. and there cars (2011-2012) are just as stock as mine was/has been. Mods to my car (springs, lca's, soon to have a UCA) have NOTHING to do with the trans mission parts failing.
Wtb thank u.
