    For $1500 bucks that’s a steal! I’ve liked mustangs for awhile and I always find them easy to work on. If you take care of them and keep up on maintenance they will last forever! Great video!

    I have a V6 model of this one as well. Bought it in the Netherlands for 12k. Way more expensive over here haha. It's not my first car, but it's my second. Got my drivers license 1 year ago and bought the mustang at the end of february this year. Great car. Mine is a manual, which was a must for me. :D

    Great video man . I drive a Nissan Sentra at the moment but god willing I’ll get an 07-09 mustang soon! I love the mysterious look it has in the front. I don’t plan on modding it like many do I would just get it stock .

      What year is yours? Assuming it has the 4.0L SOHC? If so, have you had any timing chain issues?

    For the thermostat housing,I'd recommend getting a metal one over a plastic one.

  • @USSJeff
    @USSJeff ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I've been driving one of these for 8 years. Replace the thermostat housing before it explodes on you. There is an aluminum one you can pick up from rock auto. I was lucky to not overheat my engine but the plastic one is craaaap. Also clean out the front drains...they get clogged and then overflow into the cabin.

    • @RiptideAutomotive

      Have a video on changing mine! Another plastic one unfortunately but metal next timen for sure

    You know this is a Limited Edition Pony Package car right? I didn’t hear that mentioned in the video. I have the same one and the same color. Vista Blue Pony Package.
