  1. Pretty sure that is normal for all newer Ford Autos.

     

    Not the weird shifting, the no fill/ no dip stick.

     

    No. I just bought an '09 Flex that has the filler/dipstick. I really would like to replace the crap fluid with synthetic.

  2. The Mustang is a relatively simple car. With many parts that have been used in other Ford cars for years. Example....Engines, transmissions, differentials, etc. It's braking systems, for the most part is just standard Ford stuff as well. Ditto for the electricals mostly. How could it not be reliable? You are wasting your time.

     

    Ha. Not wasting time at all. In 1999 I bought a new Cobra. The new rear end couldn't be aligned. It ate rear tires and that's because of the alignment, not the power. Then engine was underpowered too. Huge recall. Ford didn't even make a 2000 MY Cobra because of it.

     

    I got rid of that one as soon as I could.

     

    Now, my 2007 V6 Mustang with 22K miles seems to shift a little weird. I went to check to see if it was low on fluid, and there is no fluid checking rod or filler neck. Doesn't seem standard to me.

  3. Goofing around the 'net and saw this site... and few familiar names. Just stopped by to say Hi and see if any of the old crew ('99 Cobra guys) were here. [...]

     

    Yep. But I see our post numbers are reset to zero. I joined in 99. Almost 8 years ago.

     

    I am going to be looking for a new Mustang. Not sure if I want to go the Cobra route. I want an Explorer or Mariner Hybrid first tho.
