 Bought used with just 80,000 miles after I  sold my 97 Chevy with plenty more miles after 7 years of good service.  - This is my first and last experience with Ford.  After less than 6 months it's become abruptly clear that this 01 mustang can't hold a candle to my late 1997 Chevrolet Lumina.  That's not saying much at all for ford. The up keep on this car is frequently demanding and costly . The performance on the road is OK for some one who's just flying down the free way ,but it handles horrible around town. I feel every bump in the road ,Every pebble and hear things sound like they are loosening underneath the car . .,bounce,thud,sqeeking.etc. Interior is cheaply made . All fixtures on the door panel look as if they have been rigged back on more than a few times . The console where it shifts to park ,reverse , etc. Doesn't line up correctly so there is an ugly gap that holds dust and all sorts of fun stuff. By the way the car shifts into reverse horribly and occasionally misfires so hard that the whole car shakes. - I will never understand all the "hype" that goes with these cars and I would not wish them on my worst enemy.
