I would be much more willing to keep my Mustang if it weren't for the speedometer doesn't work right and the engine is weird to me. Sometimes when I first turn it on it will just sit there and park and it will get really loud then soft then loud and almost sounds like it's going to shut off and it's probably one of the roughest rides. However it's a nice car and I think if someone had the money to fix it up they'd love it. I may be getting a new hood for it with a hood scoop attached but I am waiting on a picture of it.

Your 5.0 is old, and old cars bring old car problems. I completely rebuilt my 5.0 (asside for the wiring harness and a few sensors) and still have odd ball problems that no shop can seem to figure out. It's just the way old cars are.
Trade it in or sell it for something newer, you'll never regret that deicions. However I can say this, while on paper the stats for the 99-04 V6s are similar to that of the 5.0, in the real world, performance is not and they do not have the range of options as the 5.0s for mods, nor do they resond to mods are cheaply as 5.0s.
Best bet would be to look for a 99-04 GT or 96-04 Cobra. The GTs sell for around the same price as the V6s, and get similar mpg and insurance, but with much more power. You won't regret that decision what so ever. The car will feel so much smoother over your 5.0.
