Default Bought my first mustang!

I recently traded in my 2000 dodge ram cummins for a 2010 mustang V6. It's a manual transmission. It has 54K miles on it. It has a BBK CAI, upgraded exhaust and halo headlights. I'm not sure what else it has done to it, if anything. From all the reading I have done about the vehicle it seems I should have gone newer or at least the GT package, but I didn't so Im stuck with it for a few years. I like it so far.

Congratulations on the new (to you) Mustang. As far as what you should have bought - if this car makes you happy then it was the right one. The 4.0 can be a lot of fun with a tune to wake it up.

Thanks JimC! I came from the Cummins community. And when I traded in my 2nd gen for this V6 mustang I got ALOT of grief about it. Well, Im happy with the car so to heck with them! I'm really hoping to find some nice people in here who can help me out when I have questions. I will do my best to use the search feature before posting, but I promise I will have questions!

Regards
Dave

Thanks to all for the friendly welcome! It currently has a BBK CAI and an upgraded exhaust(not sure what). I would like to increase the hp, but not sure what to upgrade next. I will get some pics up soon.

Regards
Dave
