Here's another good reason to buy a Mustang, 87 octane is reccomended by Ford for the GT

, that saves me about 40 cents at the pump per gallon, and seeing as how I burn through a tank a week under normal driving, that saves me in the neighborhood of 300 bucks a year in fuel costs. which will go nicely into the MM tire fund. Which will take 2 to 3 years to burn down, so by the end of year three if all goes well, thats 900 bucks toward another set of 1200 dollar tires.
So theres another reason, Mustangs are cheaper to operate than the "I need premium fuel for my LS1" f-bodies.
