My car is running with a lot of hesitation when I step on the gas. I have replaced spark plugs, wires, fuel pump, fuel filter, injector flush and still running bad. Precision tune shop has done all work and full diagnostics and still doing the same thing, I have spent $500+ and the problem still persists. Anyone with mechanical experience here or with the same similar situation PLEASE advice on what to do next. The car has only 79,000 miles.
Thanks MG

I know it sounds in sane but my job now is demanding the use of a pick up truck and I need to trade or sell does anybody here know how much this car worth? I have run the Edmunds report but I am not sure if this hold true because dealers don't even get close to $4,000 their argument is that the Mustangs consume to much fuel.
Does the database for edmunds.com get updated regularly when gas prices go up?
Thanks again for all your help
Here is what I got from the Used Car Appraiser on edmunds.
My car has custom rims and low profile tires, amplifiers for xtra bass and they won't even consider all the xtras when they offer my trade in.

Hope that is the right one. That is a base convertible.
I think you can find better tires for less money at the Rack though,
unless you really need a particular brand, as in Goodyear. Not that
there is anything wrong with the brand overall.

You may want to check the Tire Rack for other tires in that same 205/65TR15 size and read the reviews on them as well.
Other than that, how's your new Mustang?

The car seems to be OK at 42,000 miles. I took it in for an oil change and it needed a fuel filter and air filter. Brakes were down a bit but ok. No squeaks or rattles. The tonneau cover is missing and if I put the car in shows (just as a "driver" - I 'm not restoring it to concours condition) I'll need one. I'd like to find someplace cheaper than the Ford dealer to get one. Ebay hasn't worked. The car is fun to drive -much more pleasant than the new Toyota Solara convertible I spent a month with and then sold. Sort of the difference between a guy's car and a girl's car to be frank.
Did look at these popular at tire rack

I have a 99 Mustang Convertible and this morning when I went to try and put the top back up it would not work. It made the usually/normal noise the motor makes when lowering and rising but the top went nowhere. I tried 2 to 3 more times and still nothing. Waited a couple minutes and then tried again and it finally went up. Once I got it up, I figured I'd see if it would lower a little without a problem and nothing happened, wouldn't lower.
More then likely I'll have to take it into the dealer or a shop but I thought that I would ask and see if anyone has had a similar problem or any info before I take it in. This way I might have a heads up before I get snowed by the dealership once again for unneeded parts and repairs.
Any information would be great!
Thanks

I think they're a great combination of current styling (well, at the time anyway) and heritage cues. Taillights, fake-scoop-o-rama and the door styling all evoke Mustangs of old, but without being overly and obviously retro. Also has a certain (to me anyway) muscle-car, "gimme your lunch money!" look to it that I enjoy.
On the other two choices, while I think the 05s are great looking cars and I'm so impressed with the job Ford did, I'm beginning to find them *too* consciously retro. I know the look is a big reason for their success, but this is the first time the Mustang ever replicated a previous style in such a wholesale fashion; that doesn't sit perfectly well with me.
Also, not sure I like how Mustangs are getting BIG again...
As the years go by, though, I have to say that I like the style of the 1994-98s more and more. It's a little more restrained in style than the SN95 part II, and seems positively lithe, size-wise, next to an '05. I bet they age well, esp. the 1994-1995s with the 5.0.
Just my .02.
Thanks.
please comment
now.. on the other hand.. the messed up ratio of weight in front makes the car fishtail in wet or snow conditions.... thats unacceptable...
seems to me that the new mustangs have a better weight ratio..

My '02 seemed pretty large compared to a Fox Body at the time I got it, or even compared to the 94-98 car. But next to an '05, it seems quite svelte.
that $20.5k is probably the current market price.
