#2064 of 2105 Traction control on a 2000 Mustang GT by damightymonkey Nov 29, 2007 (4:08 pm)
I just had a new clutch put in my 2000 GT. The off light for the traction control button dosen't come on when i push it. Is it not shutting off or does it have a fuse, what could it be?

Replying to: edickerson (Oct 20, 2007 9:01 am) I replaced mine at about 60k and 60 - 70k seems to be about the right time. You will notice a huge difference when you replace them. There are also tons of options out there depending on what you are looking for.

I am looking at selling our 97 mustang and when I enter through the options on both of the above web sites the private party prices are very different, over a $1500 difference. Has anyone encountered this when doing research? Replies to this message: waterdr (Dec 29, 2007 2:56 pm) borg1of2 (Dec 29, 2007 4:18 pm) waterdr (Dec 29, 2007 10:14 pm)
#2070 of 2105 comments on 1999 Mustang coupe @$2000? by balthazarw Dec 29, 2007 (9:38 am)
my son is being tempted. Is it too good to be true?   It is said to have 6 cyl; auto trans; 100,000 miles. 3 prior owners. Rear ended and repaired at some time in the past.   I know that it is bad on roads in winter here in MN.   Other comments and thoughts and questions he should ask?   thanks.

#2071 of 2105 A 1999 Mustang 6 cylinder? by mschmal Dec 29, 2007 (11:29 am)
That car as all of the disadvantages of a rear drive car with none of the fun as its SLOW, Unreliable, junk.   If you son is a new driver, you can get something much better that isn't liable to fish tail him in to the wall the first time he over conpensates on a slippery road.   Mark

Replying to: borg1of2 (Dec 27, 2007 7:32 pm) I have seen that a lot. I don't know why there is such a range.   Tell me more about the car. Replies to this message: borg1of2 (Dec 29, 2007 4:18 pm) waterdr (Dec 29, 2007 10:14 pm)

Replying to: balthazarw (Dec 29, 2007 9:38 am) $2000 is REALLY cheap even for a 100,000 mile V-6 car. Makes we wonder a bit on the condition it is in. Naturally, everyone has their own price point and if he is young, may not have much of a budget.   It also depends on the intended purpose. If he is looking to biuld a tack car or a drag car in the future, then high-milage sixers are a GREAT platform in part because they can be had for cheap.   Even if he did not want to get crazy with a build-up, finding used, solid GT motors for $600 - $1000 is pretty easy and if you guys are handy, the swap is not that hard. One of the best things about owning a Mustang is that it is a Mustang and finding parts and upgrades is a lot cheaper then on any other platform.   If you are looking for just a first car for your son, you live in MN, and he is not that handy, then this might not be the right car. Only you will know that.   BTW, don't let anyone push you around about buying a V-6 Mustang. 2/3 rds or more of all Mustangs sold are V-6's and if you ask me, a real car should be driven by the rear wheels anyway. The ford 3.8/3.9L motors have good reliability and there is a lot you can do with them.   Look at this way....if the motor blows, for under $2,000 you could find a nice 260 hp V-8 and find someone to do the swap for you for that price.
