Hey, Leo! In my opinion, you would look really good with a 3500 turbo deisel, dually, quad cab, 4 wheel drive! Only the best for the Tech Guy.

That is one nice Mustang GT if I know my Mustangs well enough. Can tell by the sound it's the GT.
ckollars said...
I'd suggest a Subaru WRX or STi over the Mustang. AWD baby.

I thought from his Twitter post the was the new SHO.

Doesn't look like the TWIT Tesla - come on Leo, support your local NorCal businesses ;)
JoshDietrich said...
I like the WRX too, but it's in quite a different category. Mustang is excellent for crusin'

Leo, way to go. I loved my Mustang until some one ran a red light and wiped it out. Great car.

The mustang's engine produces very low HP for it's size compared to euro or asian cars. It also has a very primitive differential which causes it to spin out a lot of power in turns. The few people I know who have owned them say that the car loosens up and doesn't preform very well after it's first year.

It's a Mustang. said...
It's not a SHO, it's a Mustang. Look at the steering wheel. That big horse in the middle is a bit of a tipoff.

Go check out a Dodge Challenger.

Jeez...get real and buy a European car. Preferably German. American cars are useless. They are the butt of the rest of the worlds jokes!!!

I agree with some of the previous posters, check out the Subaru WRX sport wagon (in STi trim or not.) Great utility with the hatchback, sporty as heck, 4-doors instead of a coupe, and AWD for excellent handling.

And here I tried to talk you into inviting an auto/motorcycle journo into the TWiT family but noooooooooo. . .

For the people that suggested non big three cars or trucks. I hope illegal immigrants come and take your jobs. I am willing to pay a premium to have anything made and or manufactured in the United States by US citizens. .

Hank said...
Dave, most "US" cars aren't made in america, they are mostly made in Canada. The "foreign" Auto makers employ quite a large amount of US citizens and but a large number of cars right here in america. The idea that you should buy a car from one of the big three (who are all now international companies) just because they wave the flag is what lead to their decline. They made cars that were cheap, poorly designed, poorly made and have little longevity.

Why buy American when it barely reaches second rate, Dave? American cars are, at best, terrible.

Jeff said...
Dave, I like well made American cars, that's why I buy Honda, Toyota, or Nissan ;)

John said...
Carl- what facts back that up? I've owned American cars all my life and NEVER has one gone down before 160K. Believe in your myth all you like, but you should keep a more open mind.
Bill Heald said...
I test vehicles for a living, and it took me three of the latest GM pickup efforts to get one that was built in the US. When people ask me about 1/2-ton pickups, I tell them if you want to be positive it was built here by American workers, get a Toyota or Nissan.
J.C. Hallgren said...
Y'all who are suggesting non-Ford products missed one critical clue as to reason he was looking at the Mustang, and us who know aren't going to tell...you'll just have to see in a bit which I'm sure you'll then understand.
John Coffey said...
Nice scenic roads for biking! Just don't run them off the road.

My evidence comes in many forms. Firstly I'm a mechanic and the build quality, handling and reliability of german cars is second to none. German, Japanese cars sell all over the world across many demographics. American cars are virtually exclusive to the U.S Market. Why? Because the rest of the world won't tolerate such poor build quality, poor handling and poor fuel consumption.
Andrew Grant said...
I'd still rather have a Morgan Aeromax, even if it is the most phallic looking thing on wheels
